In the cosmetic arena, many materials are used commercially and claim to provide skin effects (eg, antiaging effects) when used topically. Considering there are so many such materials and many skin appearance effects are encompassed, this short contribution must, by necessity, be selective in terms

BACKGROUND Skin care products are numerous and perplexing, yet the majority fall into the moisturizer category. Moisturizers are substances designed to improve and maintain the skin barrier. They serve as a vehicle for the delivery of active ingredients that minimize facial lines of dehydration,

BACKGROUND Research has shown that a disrupted stratum corneum permeability barrier coupled with chronic inflammation induce signs of extrinsic aging (photoaging). An novel herbal-based three product cosmeceutical regimen used to reverse these two anomalies that does not contain retinol, soy,

Mutant dwarf and calorie-restricted mice benefit from healthy aging and unusually long lifespan. In contrast, mouse models for DNA repair-deficient progeroid syndromes age and die prematurely. To identify mechanisms that regulate mammalian longevity, we quantified the parallels between the

This report is the first description of dosing procedures, pharmacokinetics, biochemical action, and general tolerability of the antiaging drug rapamycin in the common marmoset, a small and short-lived monkey. Eudragit-encapsulated rapamycin was given orally to trained marmosets in a short-term (3

Rodent models are an invaluable resource for studying the mechanism of mammalian aging. In recent years, the availability of transgenic and knockout mouse models has facilitated the study of potential mechanisms of aging. Since 1996, aging studies with several long-lived mutant mice have been

The Asian patient with Fitzpatrick skin types III-V is rarely highlighted in publications on cutaneous disorders or cutaneous laser surgery. However, with changing demographics, Asians will become an increasingly important group in this context. Although high melanin content confers better

Metformin has beneficial effects on several age-related diseases (e.g., diabetes, obesity, cancer) and extends lifespan in nematodes and mice. Acarbose, an FDA-approved agent for treating type 2 diabetes, prevents breakdown of complex carbohydrates. Both compounds have been suggested as potential

BACKGROUND Injectable hyaluronic acid fillers (HAFs) and laser/light procedures have become increasingly popular for noninvasive facial rejuvenation in many cosmetic practices. However, the effect of laser/light treatments on HAFs is unknown. OBJECTIVE Our objective was to examine the effect of

Since 1996, aging studies using several strains of long-lived mutant mice have been conducted. Among these studies, Ames dwarf mice have been extensively examined to seek clues regarding the role of the growth hormone/insulin-like growth factor-1 axis in the aging process. Interestingly, these

Phenotypic features of malignant and senescent cells are in many instances opposite. Cancer cells do not "age"; their metabolic, proliferative, and growth characteristics are opposite to those observed with cellular aging (both replicative and functional). In many such characteristics cancer cells

In the present study the role of endothelin (ET) and its receptors (ETA-R and ETB-R) in cellular mechanisms underlying the resistance of astroglial cells to low oxygen level and development of hypoxia has been investigated. To define the influences of ET and its receptors on survival and on

Hypertension, osteoporosis and vascular calcification are major diseases in the recent aging society and may share the same backgrounds genetically and environmentally. As treatments to prevent aging-related diseases simultaneously are desirable, we investigate common backgrounds underling these

An aesthetically pleasing neck contour remains the cornerstone for facial rejuvenation. In this article a detailed description of the anatomy pertaining to the necklift surgery is provided, with supplemental cadaver video dissections going over the most common and novel necklift techniques.

The author treats hairline deformities after face lift procedures with implantation of follicular units harvested from the occipital area and implanted in common hair loss areas such as the forehead, temporal, and sideburn areas. For a natural appearance, he recommends creating an irregular and
