The Latest News on Anti Aging Wrinkle Creams

Recent new inroads into finally understanding the intricate microbiological functions of the skin has led to the development and introduction in recent years, of a new generation of anti wrinkle creams. While anti wrinkle creams of the past tended to function on the skins surface, by smoothing out the skin with oils such as lanolin, todays newer anti wrinkle creams function much differently.

Bypass the Surface Epidermal Skin Layer

New generation anti wrinkle creams, such as Strivectin-SD and Kinerase hand, face and eye creams now contain active ingredients that actually bypass the skins outer epidermal protective layer. These powerful active ingredients then migrate to the skins substrate, where they then are able to interact with living skin cells. It is important to bear in mind that surface issues such as wrinkles are mere symptoms of skin conditions located below the surface.

A New Form of Replacement Therapy

Human skin contains several innate systems that function to maintain and renew the skin itself. As the skin ages, or is subjected to excessive amounts of the suns radiation, these systems and the substances they produce can become degraded or fail all together. Todays new generation of anti aging wrinkle creams now contain substances that function as a replacement therapy for many of these vital natural substances that damaged skin is so often deficient in.

 

Mice kept in a germ-free room with intensive nursing care at Harvard Medical School are hopefully the key to this side effect. A mouse gym holds a miniature exercise machine that tests the rodents’ ability to balance on a bar, while in a nearby water maze, mice must recall visual cues from their “training” to swim to safety on a hidden platform – thereby testing memory powers. (Don’t worry: the that forget their lessons are rescued as they start to submerge.)

The new drugs being tested are called Sirtuin activators, and are based on a theory that most species have an ancient strategy for riding out famines: switch resources from reproduction to tissue maintenance. These activators appear to be triggered in mice when fed a healthy diet with 30 % fewer calories. The mice seem to live longer because they are somehow protected from the usual diseases that kill them
