So You Want To Look Younger?

By:


The effects of sun and pollution and simple aging have created markets for hundereds of anti aging skin care products. Some reduce wrinkles. Others only mask them temporarily.

Wanting to look younger than you are has been around longer than wrinkles have. Every year, skin care companies work on new agents, or modify current agents to perfect the youth delivering product. We've come a long way from elixirs sold by the gentleman in the wagon passing through town with the bottle of "somebody's cure-all."

Four new slightly different wrinkle injection products were approved by the FDA in 2007. Depending on the doctor or clinic you choose, anti wrinkle injections can cost as much as $1200. Studies indicate that those that contain hyaluronic acid lead to collagen production.

Reading the package insert of these wrinkle injections they all have side effects and one of them includes increased risk of granulomas that may be permanent as well as an increased risk of allergic reactions.

One of the most damaging effects of aging comes from long-term exposure to sun and pollution. The damage is caused by unstable molecule called free-radicals that exist in the dermal layer of the skin. Free radicals are molecules that cross link bind with collagen damaging the bodies ability to heal or produce more skin cells.

If you apply the right antioxidant you can break the linking of the free-radical to the collagen molecule, or even stop the linking before harm begins. Some of the common antioxidants are vitamins C and E, Coenzyme Q-10 (CoQ10), Algae, Pomegranate, Goji Berry, Ellagic acid, Tannic Acid, and Green tea.

Peptides can stimulate the production of collagen in the skin. The newest type of peptides is the tri-peptides. Matrixyl was the first followed by Argireline. Other peptides are being studied that also show increased collagen production.

Prescription products for anti aging have been focused on powerful strength mixtures of vitamin-A derivatives called retinoid. Retin A is the well known formulation that has been on the market for a long time.

Remember, next time you look around the odds are that more than half of the people around you are using some kind of product to hide their wrinkles. Why should you be the one that isn't? Even the best anti aging crèWrinkle injections are more expensive than almost every anti wrinkle creme or serum available today.
