Improves overall texture and tone through controlled exfoliation.
Aging skin is a natural process, but how quickly and visibly it shows up depends on far more than genetics alone. Our team offers both preventive care to slow visible aging before it starts, and treatment for changes that have already occurred.
How It Happens
Aging skin involves gradual changes in structure and function, shaped by intrinsic factors like genetics and the natural aging process, along with extrinsic factors like sun exposure, pollution, smoking, and diet. The most common signs include fine lines and wrinkles, especially around the eyes, mouth, and forehead; loss of elasticity as collagen and elastin decline, leaving skin looser; dryness and thinning, which can leave skin feeling rough or fragile; uneven tone and pigmentation, including age spots and blotchiness; a duller overall complexion as cell turnover slows; sagging, most noticeable along the jawline, cheeks, and under the eyes.
A broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher, worn daily, is the foundation of any anti-aging routine. Beyond sun protection, a consistent skincare routine is important: gentle cleanser, a moisturizer with ceramides or hyaluronic acid for hydration, retinoids like retinol or tretinoin to promote cell turnover and boost collagen, antioxidants like vitamin C and niacinamide to protect and brighten, and peptides to support overall skin structure. Lifestyle habits reinforce all of this: staying well hydrated, eating a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and lean protein, getting 7 to 9 hours of sleep, avoiding smoking, and limiting alcohol, which dehydrates and inflames the skin.
