I'm a dermatologist in the US and I can tell you that nearly everything in that box has zero evidence behind it. So many of the companies falsely claim that their products improve lines/ wrinkles or improve collagen elasticity. The truth is this: the ONLY creams that can actually slow dermal thinning and therefore wrinkling are retin-A, tazorac (both Rx only) and to a much lesser effect, retinol though retinol is so low potency that it's effects are not really visible except under a microscope of a skin biopsy. So, don't waste your money on this stuff unless you just want expensive moisturizers. Same with hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid is a VERY large molecule that is too large to be absorbed through the skin so it doesn't improve anything unless it is injected as filler under the skin by your MD. Using HA moisturizers just sit on top of the skin and moisturize. They do not plump. So, if you want to combat aging skin, wear an SPF 50 broad spectrum sunblock everyday and get an RX for retin-A or tazorac for nighttime use.
@maria-wt2fnАй бұрын
Retin a is tretinoin right? Also there is no evidence on vit c (ascorbic acid, even though it is very unestable). I combine tretinoin qnd glycolic acid (not same day) at night, ascorbic morning with spf 50. Don’t do much more. Also what is your input on new molecules such as dmae? I read a couple of papers with promising evidence. Hope you see it and thanks for your advice.

Nice to see the retinol serum from Agustinus Bader. I’ve only seen the Rich Cream and the hyaluronic acid serum. I received so many hyaluronic acid serums in only 2 Advent calendars last year and to me they are useless, because hyaluronic acid is already in everything. I’m not going to use 3 different serums. I want one for AM one for PM max. And I want actual anti-aging actives.
