Do Anti-Aging Products Really Work?
We’ve all been there. You read about an anti-aging product with five-star reviews saying, “This product changed my life!” And then you try it yourself only to find it gives you zero results.
It’s hard to know whether anti-aging products really work because everyone’s body is different. One product might work wonders for one skin type but be fruitless for another.
So, how do you know which anti-aging products will work for you and whether they’re worth it?
The Answer: It Depends
From vitamin C serums to retinol, there are countless anti-aging products on the market. But the right type of products to select depends on a number of factors, such as:
- Age: It’s generally recommended to start anti-aging products in your mid-20s. However, that doesn’t mean a 28-year-old needs anti-wrinkle cream. The type of skincare your skin needs will depend on your specific age.
- Genetics: Genetics play a significant role in your skin’s appearance and what your skin needs to stay glowing and healthy. For instance, while everyone needs sunscreen, people with fairer skin may need sunscreen with a high SPF.
- Lifestyle: From diet to exercise to weather exposure, the way you life will contribute to what type of anti-aging products you’ll need. For instance, exposure to the elements can reduce your skin’s health, so if you spend a lot of time outdoors, you may need more skin-replenishing products than other people.
- Hormones: Women’s hormones fluctuate on a daily basis and also throughout different stages of life. Everyone’s hormone production is different, which means the type of anti-aging products you need will depend on how well your hormones are balanced.
Choosing an Anti-Aging Product or Treatment
You may see many articles and videos on what kind of anti-aging products to use, and it can all get very confusing.
To get clarity, try making an appointment with a healthcare professional who specializes in skincare and anti-aging wellness. They should learn about your overall health, lifestyle and needs before formulating a personalized anti-aging plan.
Most of all, your anti-aging pursuit doesn’t have to just involve anti-aging products to adjust your appearance. As we age, we may experience low energy, mental fog and hormone fluctuations. Feeling your best can help you look your best, so it’s important to find treatments that support your overall wellbeing.
