The Best Anti Aging Product Is One That Prevents Sun Damage And PhotoAging

There is no better anti-aging treatment than prevention.

If your skin has already begun to show signs of photo aging due to sun damage, you can at least make sure that it doesn't progress any further. Think of it as an investment that you are making for the future: 30 year old skin may not look so great on someone who's ten years younger but it'll look great on someone in their 40s!

Let's face it; we are most concerned about the wrinkles that appear on our face and especially around our eyes. The thin and delicate skin surrounding the eyes is almost always the first place to begin to show signs of aging due to a lack of sebaceous (oil producing) glands. Similarly, our lips do not contain any sebaceous glands so they rely solely on external moisture sources. Just like the skin surrounding the eyes, the lips can easily become dehydrated and start to show signs of aging. If you already have wrinkles, there is still hope.

You have several options depending on the severity.

• Hyaluronic acid: There are hydrating cremes that penetrate the skin's surface using hyaluronic acid, a substance used by dermatologists in surgical procedures to "fill in" wrinkles. It is a substance that is produced by our body in abundance in the early years: It's what makes a baby's skin feel so dewy, moist and soft. As we age the body's production of hyaluronic acid slows down greatly, causing the skin to lose its youthful elasticity. Applied topically to the skin, it has the amazing ability to hold 1000 times its own weight in water! It is well renowned for its remarkable ability to literally draw moisture from the air and pull it deep into the skin. Keeping the skin hydrated prevents wrinkles and diminishes the appearance of wrinkles that may have already formed.
• DMAE and MSM: The aging process slows down our skin's natural ability to generate and shed dead skin cells, making it more difficult for the skin's natural oil (sebum) to reach the surface of the skin. There is also a decrease in the production of collagen, a connective protein that gives structure, firmness and support to skin cells. DMAE (Dimethylaminoethanol) and MSM (Methylsulfonylmethane) are two other active anti aging ingredients that work well when applied topically. DMAE visibly firms the skin within 20 minutes of application by decreasing the appearance of loose and sagging skin. MSM is a compound with anti-inflammatory and anti-microbial properties. Its nourishing properties encourage the formation of collagen and elastin.
