My Anti-Aging Skincare Routine

[@masonturner2124]

What I find most interesting about Bryan is the seemingly large disconnect between his public reputation vs everyone who follows him. In the media and the average lay person thinks his ideas are “wacko”, but truly following him he’s a genuine, humble guy who just wants to share his journey. Couldn’t think of a better guy to do it honestly

[@NaginnahNibor]

can confirm. I was a recent convert from thinking he's wacko to seeing his brilliance

[@hombacom]

At same its pure business, marketing and products involved - and not that unique discoveries that its seems. There are people doing things outside the spotlight which can be considered more honest and genuine that helps science and other beings. Not influencers that want to be stars alone.

[@NaginnahNibor]

@@hombacom I'm curious if you're referring to specific people. I'd love to hear more about their experiences and knowledge

The most powerful skin care protocol for starters? Stop the damage. Once that’s done you can level up step by step with routine skin care and treatments.

[@soigualdo]

Any tips that you learned for skin tightening?

[@patrickrealestate-8193]

@@soigualdo Avoid the common error of prioritizing subcutaneous fat loss over visceral fat. If you're overweight, skip intense gym sessions and cardio to prevent rapid weight loss that exceeds your skin's adaptability. Support skin elasticity by supplementing with collagen and consuming ample vitamin C. Maintain a caloric deficit through controlled eating, daily walks, hydration, and sufficient sleep. Consider water fasting for visceral fat reduction, but practice patience-allow your body time to naturally tighten the skin.

[@JasmineSurrealVideos]

I used to work in the beauty industry, and I can confirm no skin cream or serum can penetrate deep enough into the layers of the skin to make that much difference, the epidermal layers need to be "reprogrammed" with peels, LED therapy and botox or face lifts. Bryan is correct here with his approach to skin protection and ageing if there's damage done. However, wearing a minimum Spf 30 sunscreen all year round, even indoors near windows etc, but allow some low risk sun in the evening to your body for vit D. That's the single most important thing you can do for your face for anti ageing. Retinol helps speed up skin renewal, as will a good glycolic or bakuchiol, the latter better on sensitive skin, but use these at night and have a skip day. Cleanse all sun product off in the evening, and use a good moisturiser, you don't need to spend lots of money, Ceravive is fine or QandA or the Ordinary. Use an alcohol free toner as well. A gel one for oily skin, a richer one for dry. Eat lots of food with anti oxidants like fruit and veg, and take plenty oils like Hemp, Flaxseed for Omega 3/6 fatty acids, and massage your face with oils and a face roller regularly. I used sunscreen as a child and teenager, ate well and avoided smoking and excessive alcohol and at 49 I still have a roundish youngish face, no procedures, hardly any lines and little sun damage.

[@ElleY-ks8pl]

rollers will tear your skin actually because of the angle. use a stamp if you really want to

[@sharroon7574]

I have sensitive skin, and I have finally found what works. Basically I wear no makeup,I use korean sunscreen, and cleanse with cold cream.I apply Vichy probiotic serum and cerave pm. When I tried activities recommended by youtube derms my skin was constantly inflamed. I tried every protocal for sensitive skin. What I have learned is that if you don't damage your skin barrier, your skin has its own intrinsic factors. My skin looks at least 5 years younger from trying this. I also take a beta carotene supplement.

Bryan Johnson, you are AWESOME! Thanks for sharing all your research and knowledge with others.

[@dave5185]

Your face looks so much better than a year ago - much fuller and younger looking. Biomarkers aside, you just look a lot more normal and healthy rather than gaunt and scary (with all due respect) so I'd say your protocol is working very well. The takeaway I got from this is thinner face features doesn't translate to younger looking and it's best to maintain some facial fat. I also appreciate your self-deprecating humor about being a vampire and your honest assessment of previous look vs now. Keep up the great work, Bryan!

[@PaulGoins]

Re: the umbrella, when I moved to Japan many years ago, I got a little culture shock when I saw all the women in Japan walking around with black umbrellas in the summer on sunny days. Not everyone there does it, but it's pretty common among the women.

[@Cloudnine2024]

True but not for sun damage. They don't want to tan, because darkened skin is deemed unattractive. Pale skin is attractive and of higher class. Now, to me, that is bullshit, but it's that way in basically every culture, including black culture.

[@YadiraEscobar]

also in the Caribbean islands. Some men will use umbrellas too cause it's just so harsh. In Florida, all landscape workers use face masks to diminish the damage from working out in the sun all day. Shaming people for taking care of themselves is mediocre bullying and I think a reflection of lazy folks who don't want to take care of themselves so they get insecure seeing that others are putting in the effort. Like staying home to study instead of partying.

[@jooz3776]

[@Timesobserver_Xenia]

Depends on area where you love and type of skin you have. Example..my skin has natural resistance to sun and it never gets very dark, keeping only peach colour after sun baths. However, it doesn't get dry or damaged after sun bathing, opposite, it flows, it become smooth, the wrinkles get smaller, some goes away. I do not have sun bathing as an everyday routine, for sure, from time to time at the seaside makes it younger. And opposite, my husband has quite dark skin if he enjoys sun bathing, fast and long dark colour, but, for him sun does opposite. His skin gets wrinkled and dry. I used to see that difference in many people, in my opinion some research shall be conducted to figure out if sun is damaging all types of skin, how long can a person with this or that skin be outside, where, in which region, sun is mild or soft, where its unpleasant (rememebr that there are 3zones with red marker: solar and space radiation with small air layers protectiin, such as Brazil and Canada, Siberia). When we know that we can talk about 100% sun damage and necessity to protect. There are benefits of sun bathing as well. Regarding, sun screams, it's enough data to be not that confident in such products due to side effects, that a one shall know clearly before starting to use it on a regular basis. Regarding Brian and his skin. He holds red head gens and skin of such people is very sensitive, they may have freckles, they may get sun burns fast, they may get wrinkles earlier due to sun exposure. Such people are recommended to limit time under sun and wear covering cloth..my mother is red head and that's clearly known in my family..I inherited another line gens and also grew up in the far east north where body used adjust for quite radioactive sun. We are lacking data here for the clear advice to everyone for the same protocol..in my opinion. Women get wrinkles when the eggs function starts to reduce, hormones change and body looses ability to source skin from inside. However, here, the type of skin is important (thick, sensitive, heavy, light etc), face geometry (will the skin sage on eyes due to the small distance between eyes and eyebrows etc) and body type condition (people with extra weight may have heavier sagging and faster older look in their 40s)... And yes, I am 40.

[@annmarieknapp2480]

Keep going with it. Am 54, starting wearing sunblock every single day rain or shine and I have very little skin damage. I also look significantly younger than my age. I also use tretinoin, copper peptides, niacinomides, Vitamin C creams, hyaluronic acid, and moisturizer. Prevention is important. But, a tip. Use it on any areas of sun exposure. I use it on my face and neck, but I didn't use it on my arms and even just from sitting in the car to and from work that part of my skin is really damaged. Now I use it on my arms, but I'm kicking myself I didn't include my arms and hands.

[@notmyrealaccount8564]

⁠​⁠@@Timesobserver_Xenia What might seem like healthy skin can look worse under one of those zombie cameras as seen in the video. The sun can be good in some ways but you can achieve similar benefits artificially such as the disinfection from the UV rays or the exfoliation, vitamin D etc. without the damage from the sun’s radiation which is essentially breaking down the DNA in your skin cells and causing pigmentation and elasticity problems and damage that isn’t always visible (especially not at first but will show down the line in your 50s and 60s) so if you avoid that as much as possible then you will have younger skin.

He is microdosing accutane, which is a strategy that some dermatologists recommend for acne treatment with much minor side effects than a traditional accutane protocol. I believe microdose accutane is also being looked at for its collagen promotion and antiaging effect. You still get liver labs done when on microdosed accutane, since the risks are lower but still there. I’m sure he’s getting tons of tests to document the effects the accutane is having on him.

The scientific approach of your work is truly impressive. Thanks for sharing!

[@NeokingTech]

I'm surprised you didn't mention retinoids like tretinoin. While you're correct that topical treatments have limited efficacy compared to devices like lasers, tretinoin has been shown since the 80s to stimulate collagen production, reduce fine lines and wrinkles, eliminate acne, and fade blemishes and sun damage after sustained use. It's considered the gold standard for skin anti-aging (and acne) in dermatology. Is it because you microdose accutane? Or is it that tretinoin is primarily a cosmetic treatment, which is related to but somewhat orthogonal to your goals of real anti-aging and reversal of skin damage?

[@LeoRizzo]

Retinoids make your cells replicate faster, so that you have newer and fresher cells in your skin to look younger. However there is a limited amounts of cells replications in your lifetime (Hayflick limit), hence you’re actually aging faster by using retinoids in exchange for a cosmetic improvement today.

[@FalseGiggle]

Women in their 60s who've used retinols for decades look amazing. They don't look like they've paradoxically aged faster on account of their retinol use. Quite the opposite.

[@LeoRizzo]

@@FalseGiggle They've used more of their stem cells reserve to have a higher skin cells turnover, hence appearing younger. The occasional use of retinoids has more advantages than disadvantages, it's just important to highlight that it is not a free lunch, as daily users of tretinoins seem to think.

[@mushy470]

​@@LeoRizzothis isn't true btw. It's been debunked. Especially since tretinoin has been on the market for over 60 years, we have long term studies

[@mushy470]

​@@LeoRizzoI don't have the vocabulary to explain this particular topic but Dr Dray has a video on exactly this and explains it's well.

[@JamesBaylockJr]

What I don’t get is, how does he know which new medicine or technology is working or not? He says “if it does not work, it’s out,” but when you are using SO many different things, how can you truly ever know which one is working and which isn’t?

[@JasmineSurrealVideos]

I would suggest he uses one new face product and nothing else for a fixed time, and tests his skin electronically during that trial phase to see if there's any improvement.

[@v_iika]

[@wrightvcx2249]

A lot of people in their mid to late 40s look naturally young if they have good genetics. Some of the professors in my college in Germany looked at least 10-15 years younger than their real age. They have flawless shiny skin and healthy hair. I think the real challenge is to keep up with the age after 50 and for some people after 60. Rarely do you see a 60+ year-old with nice skin and healthy hair.

[@Leah_F.]

True. I’m 50 but get mistaken for 30-something. But my late mother was 81 & looked 50 when she passed. It was said that when HER grandmother passed, the coroner commented that she had the body of a young girl. (She was actually 90.) My older sis is 64 but also looks very young.

[@sophiesavides4805]

I love your videos Bryan! Could you do a video on overcoming your depression and binge eating?

[@TooDaft]

I'm not sure I agree with the thought that the sun is bad for you. The sun is literally light energy that contain vitamin D. It's essential to avoid things like depression, so while I agree you should not be laying in the sun to tan, it doesn't make sense to block all sunlight.

[@dbab-liftingjourney7351]

Hey Bryan! Not sure if you'll read this, but what would your thoughts be on switching from Tretinoin to Tazarotene? Have you thought of using Tazarotene instead given that it is generally more potent? Or even potentially cycling the retinoids to maximize retinoic acid receptor binding affinities?

[@aeducator1]

All forms of vitamin A have anti-adipogenic activities at very low (picomolar) concentrations. I would recommend getting off vitamin A if you want to rebuild facial fat. This is not hearsay. There are a dozen articles at least indicating in vitro anti-adipogenic activity. And last year this paper from Richard Gallo's lab showed that the mechanism applies in vivo in humans pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35171653/

​@@sebastianjohannesferdinand5451 Well technically yes, accutane is an Isotretinoin only it's more potent as it is ingested.

[@retronym4353]

Hey Bryan, huge thank you for these videos. I've really been struggling to find motivation lately, just in terms of the absolute basics of life, but your methodology and general approach to life is such an inspiration to me. I also have one question after watching another of your videos that I'd be immeasurably grateful for an answer to: is there any way to see what you have been doing to repair your lung damage and your progress in doing so? I had quite a severe pneumonia from COVID and already had poor lung condition prior to that due to recurrent asthma/bronchitis as a child, as a result I'm in quite a sorry state in that regard so would appreciate any advice.

[@NarasimhaDiyasena]

I really suggest you stop accutane. I took it for 3 months in 2018 and while it got rid of cystic acting for the first year it in the immediacy gave me depression, General anxiety disorder, and no motivation, and on the long term created side affects which I am just now attributing to accutane to include dry eyes creating blurred vision, dry skin and scalp, joint weakness to include the Knees and Jaw which has induced bruxism and an overbite.

[@wulfsorenson8859]

Exactly

[@lordofdarkness8143]

considering all the protocols and markers he is doing i dont think its gonna make any damage. if it did his doctors would probably discontinue it. also considering the low dose i dont think its going to do any harm. accutane is a perfectly safe drug especially if you're in a controlled environment like he is. it also has some anti skin cancer properties which is also good

[@maddysweden2179]

Interesting, I did see in one of his previous videos that he has dry eyes. He didn't say what medicine it was from though.

[@Mint-kj9kw]

I'm pro Accutane. I had SEVERE acne as a youth and in my early 20's. I took Accutane for 4 months and my acne never returned. That was over 20 years ago. I never had one side effect....but thats because I never have side effects from any medication.

I'm surprised to see no retinol! Have you and the team tested its various forms? I'm also wondering why no internal collagen - is that due to calories?

[@judewallach9588]

I wonder if he doesn't use retinol because accutane is known to dry out the skin and make it super sensitive. Although at 80mg a week i'm sure it wouldn't matter.

Great video - The important of spf is finally getting through to people .

We use to say face neck and hands , customers would say all year 😮yes because even on a cloudy day uva ( ageing rays ) are there . I bet those customers I served were pleased becsuse that was over 30 years ago . Keep up with the amazing work you are doing you are truly fasinating and totally motivating. 🙌🙏🥰

Hi I have a question. I'm from London and I was wondering is it really necessary to wear SPF when the UV index is 0 in the winter? Isn't this index for both UVB and UVA rays?

A cosmetic chemist here. This will probably be the last thing you would expect to hear from a lab nerd, but when it comes to skincare, less is definitely more. The best you could do to keep your youthful skin is to simplify your routine with a focus on the ingredients you actually *need*, no aesthetic treatments, NEVER massage your face (OMG), and touch your skin as little as possible. Remember, dermatologists, cosmetic surgeons and skincare companies are there to make money off of you!

It will be very interesting to see Bryan as he gets into his mid-to-late 50s and older. Right now, at 46, he definitely looks great, but honestly, he looks about the same as any other 46 y.o. who's stays fit, eats a reasonable a diet and doesn't smoke (or do other harmful drugs regularly). I fit that description and I'm about to turn 57. Looking back at pics of me when I was mid 40's, I look about the same as Bryan. It's only in the past 10 years that I've started noticing the aging--wrinkles and graying hair...thankfully, not much, (if any) receding hairline yet.

Thats all I've been hearing my entire life that sun is damaging to the skin. I find that sunscreen is way more damaging for my skin than the sun. Also, majority of skin cancers are due to lack of sun, not too much of it. Anyway, I'm turning 40 soon and I haven't used sunscreen on daily basis like all of my friends did, I hate it and I'm not afraid of the sun, but of course I don't bake myself in peak hour etc. I look MUCH younger than all of my friends of the same age and I always get asked what is it that I do to stay young, I tell them I expose myself to sun lol. Not too sure if the "science" is actually correct on the sun.
