Ideally prevention strategies for anti-aging include skin care at home, supplemented with clinically proven office procedures such as chemical peels, laser resurfacing & injectables. The use of antioxidants, niacinamide, ascorbic acid & retinol can slow down the aging process. Photoprotection, stress relief & diet play an important role in slowing down intrinsic & extrinsic ageing.

Why start with retinol?
Understanding what your skin can tolerate is the first step in good skin care. Prescription retinoids such as tretinoin, retinoic acid, adapalene & tazarotene will cause skin irritation. A sensible approach is to start off with over-the-counter retinoids including retinol, retinyl esters, & retinaldehyde. These compounds require conversion to pharmacologically active retinoic acid. These conversion steps slow down the process to yield bioavailable retinoic acid, in turn markedly reducing side effects.
