Anti-Aging Solutions

With time the notion and essence of ‘beauty’ has considerably changed. Today, beauty etalons and standards are different from those of the ancient times. However, a woman has always been a beauty symbol. Youth is something that is the basis of beauty. With age, beauty fades and vanishes.


That is why women were always afraid of getting old. Wrinkles, dry skin and flabby muscles do not look any pretty. That’s has been quite a task for scientists all over the world to discover the secret to eternal youth and beauty. Unfortunately, by the present time, they have not succeeded so far. There are of course various methods to hide and retard age-related defects, but we can not hold them back forever.


Anti-aging skin options are varied and numerous: facial therapies, cosmetics, pills, surgery after all. Women seem to be doomed for this ever-lasting fight for youth starting from their 20-s when they work to preserve it and then in their 40-s to keep it.


Anti-aging cosmetics is helpful on early stages and some of the manufacturers have proved their products to give positive effects.


What are they those anti-aging items that we have access to?


At the present time, the market is invaded by anti-aging creams and lotions, each of which is claimed to be extremely effective. They are also said to have undergone various clinical researches and practical tests. Can we believe advertisements? Do they really work?


Anti-aging market is about to offer you a selection of collagen- and elastic-based creams. Since it has been scientifically proved that our skin loses its good looks because of dehydrating and collagen loss, scientists invented collage-based creams. However, their effectiveness can be doubted. The thin is that collage molecules are too big to penetrate into skin, that is why is accumulated on the surface and is rinsed every time you wash your face or use make-up remover.
There are though such products which are able to remove fine wrinkles, they are effective on the early stages of aging. They contain antioxidants which prevent inflammation processes which are as well a good reason to look old.


Another reason why skin is aging is dehydration. Thus, there are moisturizes which deal away with the problem. However, these are also to be applied on the early stages, because they are not miraculous and can hardly deliver such a strong moisturizing effect. It is better to drink more water, so that the skin is not dried out.


If creams and lotions are of no help, women have to apply for help to beauty salons where they are offered a number of nonsurgical facials: peeling, massages, injections, etc. Surgical intrusion seems to be the last instance.
