Q&A

• What are some advanced treatments for skin aging?

  Advanced skin aging treatments include hormone replacement therapy, Botox, laser treatments, and more.

• Are there concerns about sunscreen ingredients and are there alternatives?

  There are concerns about sunscreen ingredients possibly disrupting hormone levels, but evidence in humans is limited. Some prefer mineral sunscreens like zinc oxide, while Bisoctrizole offers strong UV protection without skin absorption and is awaiting FDA approval by 2025.

• Why are sunscreen and ceramides in moisturizer essential for skin health?

  Sunscreen is essential for protecting the skin from UV rays and preventing signs of aging. Ceramides in moisturizer act as the glue holding skin cells together and improve skin barrier health.

• What key factors play a role in reversing skin aging?

  Diet, exercise, sleep, and stress management are key factors in reversing skin aging. A Mediterranean-style diet, resistance and aerobic exercise, adequate sleep, and stress reduction are all important for maintaining healthy skin.

• How do lactic acid, glycolic acid, and certain supplements help improve skin firmness and reduce wrinkles?

  Lactic acid and glycolic acid help reduce wrinkles and improve skin firmness by affecting deeper layers of the skin. Additionally, supplements like collagen peptides, hyaluronic acid, and vitamin B3 have strong evidence of benefiting skin health.

• What are the common types of retinoid creams and their effects?

  Adapalene and tretinoin are common types of retinoid creams. Adapalene is less irritating and equally effective for skin aging. Retinoid creams, including adapalene and tretinoin, have been confirmed to reduce skin aging effects in randomized control trials.

• How can retinoid creams and supplements slow down intrinsic aging?

  Retinoid creams and supplements can help slow down intrinsic aging by stimulating skin cell activity, promoting skin turnover, boosting collagen production, and enhancing the skin's protective function.

• How do intrinsic and extrinsic aging processes affect the skin?

  Intrinsic aging makes the skin appear dry, thin, and transparent, while decreased blood supply and collagen contribute to skin aging. Extrinsic aging, on the other hand, is caused by environmental factors and affects exposed skin areas, leading to roughness, deep wrinkles, discoloration, and broken capillaries.

• Can skin aging be reversed with the tools available today?

  Yes, skin aging can be reversed with new tools available today, backed by scientific evidence.

• 00:00 Discover a step-by-step system backed by scientific evidence to reverse skin aging and learn about intrinsic and extrinsic aging processes, creams, and supplements to slow down the aging of the skin.
• 01:58 Retinoid creams promote skin turnover, boost collagen production, strengthen skin's protective function, and have been confirmed to reduce skin aging effects in randomized control trials. They can make the skin more sensitive and inflamed at first, so it is recommended to use them at night and always wear sunscreen during the day. Pregnant women should avoid using these creams. Adapalene and tretinoin are common types of retinoid creams, with adapalene being less irritating and equally effective for skin aging.
• 03:51 Using lactic acid and glycolic acid, as well as certain supplements, can help reduce wrinkles and improve skin firmness. Extrinsic aging is caused by environmental factors and affects exposed skin areas.
• 05:48 Diet, exercise, sleep, and stress management are key factors in reversing skin aging; Mediterranean-style diet, resistance and aerobic exercise, adequate sleep, and stress reduction are all important for maintaining healthy skin.
• 07:55 Ceramides in moisturizer decrease wrinkles and improve skin texture. Sunscreen is crucial to protect the skin from UV rays, with concerns about certain ingredients but limited evidence of harm in humans.
• 09:52 There's no evidence that sunscreen ingredients in the US are harmful, but some prefer mineral sunscreens. Bisoctrizole provides strong UV protection without skin absorption and FDA approval is expected by 2025. Advanced skin aging treatments include hormone replacement therapy, Botox, laser treatments, and more.
