Science of Aging - Anatomy of a wrinkle

In aging skin, the most profound changes occur within the structure of the
dermis. But to better understand the anatomy of a wrinkle, we start by
looking at skin at its youthful best.

  • Young Skin

    Collagen production is at its best,
    and glycosaminoglycans
    ("Gags") provide a strong support
    structure for the collagen. The two
    components work together to create
    dense, buoyant and hydrated skin.

  • Aging Skin

    Three primary factors contribute to the anatomy of a wrinkle.

  • Age Reform® Intensive treatments
    address all three primary factors of aging skin.

    The age-defying ingredients in each treatment provide:

    • The right environment for optimal collagen production
    • The nutrients necessary for glycosaminoglycans to flourish
    • Intense resurfacing of dead skin cells

Loss of Collagen:
less ability to fight gravity.

The loss of structural collagen
and elastin proteins causes
skin to lose its firm, wrinkle-
free appearance and ability to
snap back into place.
Fewer Glycosaminoglycans ("GAGs"):
less dense and less ability to stay hydrated.

The naturally occurring glycosaminoglycans which
contribute to skin density, volume and essential
hydration also diminish with the aging process.
Dead skin cell build up:
wrinkles appear deeper and skin appears dull.
What's more, dead surface skin cells do not slough off as frequently, thus increasing the apparent depth of wrinkles, as well as leaving skin looking dull and uneven.
