There are a wide variety of products, procedures, treatments, and anti-aging serums available today that can help you attain the complexion you desire. But how do you know which of the many options is going to work best for you? How do you choose the best anti-aging serum for your 40s, 50s, or 60s?
Today, we are going to talk about some ways to combat the visible signs of aging that show up on your face. We will provide an overview of some amazing treatments at SurgiCare Arts & Aesthetics that are specifically designed for anti-aging available in Atlanta, Georgia, and give you details about proprietary anti-aging serums that have been specifically designed to target your complexion concerns regardless of your age.
Consistent Skin Care Is Key
You need to look at taking good care of your skin as more than just a daily routine but as an investment in your long-term appearance. If your skin appears dull, has fine lines and wrinkles, or has an uneven texture, you can start now to correct or greatly improve these issues.
Your skin is constantly renewing itself, with new cells forming and old ones sloughing off. This process is called cell turnover and can take anywhere between 14 and 84 days depending on genetics, environment, your age, and your skincare routine.
Chart: The Average Turnover Rate for Untreated Skin
| Infants | 14 days |
| Teens | 28 days |
| 30s & 40s | Between 28 and 42 days |
| 50+ years of age | As long as 84 days |
The older you are, the longer it takes for your cells to slough off and be replaced by new, fresh cells, which can cause dull, dry skin, fine lines, and other classic signs of aging. Besides your age, things like sun exposure, stress, and hormone imbalances can impact how quickly your cells naturally regenerate. The good news is a good skincare routine can speed up cell turnover and provide you with fresher, younger-looking skin on a consistent basis and in a fraction of the time.
Ways You Can Increase Cell Turnover
Increasing the frequency of cell turnover on your face can help improve the texture, tone, and the entire appearance of your complexion. Here are some proven strategies that can fast-track this process:
Follow A Skincare Routine
Being consistent in taking care of your skin will help promote faster cell turnover and give your skin that vibrant, healthy-looking glow that you desire.
Your routine should be consistent and include cleansing with a mild facial product designed to gently remove dirt, oil, and makeup from your skin without stripping it of vital moisture or natural oils, moisturizing, followed by a high-quality anti-aging serum, and routine professional treatments.
Be sure to give extra special care to the delicate skin around the eyes with a treatment designed to target the issues common in this region.
Exfoliate Regularly
Exfoliation is the process of removing dead skin cells from the surface of your skin. This can be done using physical methods, like scrubbing with a gentle brush or specially designed facial scrub, or through chemical methods, like applying products that contain acids (alpha hydroxy, glycolic, or lactic) or enzymes to dissolve the dead cells and trigger new cell growth.
Use Anti-Aging Serums
Quality anti-aging serums contain ingredients that are designed to speed up cell turnover and renew your complexion faster. Many are enriched with botanicals, vitamins, antioxidants, and growth factors that help nourish and protect your skin to slow down, reduce, or eliminate the visible signs of aging.
Live A Healthy Lifestyle
Your diet, level of physical activity, adequate hydration, stress levels, sleep patterns, and wearing sunscreen can all contribute to the health of your skin.
Professional Treatments
Cosmetic treatments administered by a professional such as those at SurgiCare Arts & Aesthetics can help target and deal with skin concerns that require going a bit deeper than just the surface. Acne scars, uneven pigmentation, large pores, scars, and deeper lines and wrinkles can be diminished using professional treatments like microneedling with radio frequency, chemical peels, microdermabrasion, laser treatments, etc. These treatments encourage cell turnover and trigger the production of new collagen and elastin, providing a smoother and more toned foundation for the renewing skin.
Anti-Aging Skincare Products
Using high-quality serums in your skincare routine can make a significant difference in your complexion and how fast your skin ages.
Best Anti-Aging Ingredients
Two ingredients that can work wonders for your complexion and combat aging are epidermal growth factor (EGF) and bakuchiol.
- Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF)
- EGF is a protein that is naturally present in your body and plays a key role in the growth and repair of skin cells. It’s commonly used in skincare because it helps to combat aging by reducing fine lines and wrinkles, encouraging new cell formation, and boosting collagen production for a more even and smooth complexion.
- Bakuchiol
- Bakuchiol is a natural, less irritating alternative to retinol that offers very similar benefits. It is a powerful antioxidant, a natural anti-inflammatory; it helps to boost collagen production, even out skin tone, and reduce the appearance of fine lines. It is a bit of a newcomer in the beauty market but has been used for hundreds of years in India and China as an ingredient in medicine and ancient beauty regimens.
Other Effective Anti-Aging Ingredients
No matter your age, maintaining a consistent skincare routine is essential for keeping your skin healthy and looking its best. With the overwhelming number of products available, finding the right ones for your skin type can be a challenge, especially since not all skincare products are created equal. It is important to choose those with high-quality ingredients that have been proven effective and are gentle on your skin. Some other ingredients that help reverse, diminish, or slow down the signs of aging include:
- Ceramide 3
- Ceramides are lipids that help form a barrier for the skin to retain moisture. Ceramide 3 helps maintain the skin’s protective layer, combating dryness and reducing the appearance of fine lines by keeping the skin hydrated and plump.
- Squalane
- Squalane is a highly effective moisturizer usually derived from olive oil or sugarcane that mimics the skin’s natural oils, providing hydration and preventing water loss. It also has anti-inflammatory properties and can help improve the texture of your skin and make it look smoother and more youthful.
- Hydrolyzed Pea Protein
- Pea protein is extracted from yellow peas and can help maintain skin elasticity, firmness and hydration. It provides a source of amino acids that are essential for the production of collagen, helping to reduce wrinkles and fine lines.
- Peptides Such As Acetyl Octapeptide-3
- Known as an anti-wrinkle peptide, Acetyl Octapeptide-3 works by relaxing facial muscles, reducing the depth of wrinkles, particularly expression lines, giving a smoother appearance to the skin.
- Sodium Hyaluronate
- This is a derivative of hyaluronic acid but has a much smaller molecule size, so it can be easily absorbed by the skin. It can hold up to 1,000 times its weight in water, which deeply hydrates the skin, plumps up fine lines and wrinkles, and gives the skin a more youthful appearance.
- Panax Ginseng Root Extract
- Ginseng root extract is rich in antioxidants, which help neutralize free radicals that can cause stress and damage to your skin cells and lead to premature aging. It boosts collagen production, assists with moisture retention, helps reduce fine lines and wrinkles, and improves skin elasticity.
- Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C)
- Vitamin C is a well-known but powerful antioxidant that also helps brighten dull skin and reduce areas of hyperpigmentation. It also neutralizes free radicals generated by UV exposure and environmental pollution; it helps reduce dark undereye circles and puffiness, as well as stimulates collagen production, leaving your skin brighter, firmer, and more radiant.
- Retinyl Palmitate (Vitamin A)
- A milder form of retinol, Vitamin A helps accelerate cell turnover, reducing the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and hyperpigmentation. It also promotes collagen production and improves skin texture.
- Tocopherol (Vitamin E)
- Vitamin E is a potent antioxidant that protects the skin from oxidative stress, which can cause premature aging. It also helps moisturize the skin, improving elasticity and reducing the appearance of fine lines.
- Ubiquinone (Coenzyme Q10)
- Ubiquinone is an antioxidant that helps protect the skin from environmental damage. It also boosts collagen and elastin production, which are key to maintaining skin’s firmness and reducing the appearance of wrinkles.
