Antiaging skin care can help you look younger now.

Q: When do most of us start seriously thinking about antiaging skin care?

A: Sometime between the ages of 35 and 60 when we think we're beginning to look like The Picture of Dorian Gray.

Wrinkles. Sagging. Age spots. Skin texture changes. Is this what’s in your picture?

If you’re like Kathy and me, you’re thinking: “Hey, I just want to live longer. I didn’t sign on for getting ugly along the way!”

So what CAN you do to look younger now? Are the only solutions nips, tucks, and botox injections?

NOTE: This section will be significantly updated in November after remarkable discoveries about the sources of aging are announced.

Here's what’s happening to your face

Before talking solutions, let’s discuss the problem: Your skin is getting older and it’s changing, and not in a good way.

There are three types of aging that cause the visible signs of aging: biological, environmental, and mechanical.

There’s also our old nemesis, free radicals. Whether produced by sunlight, cigarette smoke, or our skin itself (a new discovery announced last year), free radicals contribute to aging skin.

So as Dr. Lester Packer states: “The most effective way to prevent both skin aging and skin cancer is to maintain the antioxidant advantage, not only on the inside of your body, but on the outside as well.”

By now you have a pretty good idea what’s causing aging skin, what’s the effect? Where are the wrinkles and jowls coming from?

Answer: Changes to the elastin and collagen in your skin.

Elastin is the protein fiber that helps skin maintain its flexibility and elasticity. So when you’re young and you smile, your smile lines snap back and don’t start forming a permanent crease in your skin (wrinkle). Same for your forehead when you raise your eyebrows.

The bad news is that you stop producing elastin in your early 20s.

Collagen is the skin’s scaffolding. It’s a protein in the dermis of the skin that’s the primary support of the epidermis.

There’s an age-related decline in collagen production. This creates gaps in the scaffolding that leads to wrinkles and fine lines.

Okay, you’re really depressed…is there any hope?

So just how many years CAN you take off your face without:

Going under the knife,
Poison injections, or
Heavy makeup to spackle the cracks in your face?

The answer: More than you think!

You're probably using some kind of skin care product or moisturizer now, maybe even a system or program.

And if you're like Kathy and me, trying to find an antiaging skin care solution that really works is the result of trial and error, trying solutions promoted by hype, hope, and the occasional celebrity endorsement.

But here's good news: There are antiaging skin care products out there that not only treat the effects of aging, but also the SOURCE of aging!
