Aging, Elevated: Part II – Managing Aging Skin

Management of Aging

my latest social media post on Aging posted on 9/9/24 , I discussed my take on offering “pro-aging” techniques that focus less on trying to “reverse time,” and more on getting you to be the best version of yourself – at any age! Use the “snowball” method.

“Pay off” one skin debt at a time, starting on small bits that you can then roll over into big bits… like a snowball growing as it rolls downhill. Small bits to start on:

• Don’t wash your face before bedtime? Start there with a small habit!
• Quit smoking and minimize drinking alcohol
• Then add in a simple hydrating moisturizer

Then stack those habits onto bigger habits:

• Add in a medical-grade Vit C (we love skinbetter’s Alto Advanced, and you can buy it HERE),
• Then hyaluronic acid (we love Hydrinity’s Restorative or Renewing HA Serums, and you can buy it HERE),
• and then retinol a few nights a week (we love skinbetter’s AlphaRet Overnight Cream, and you can buy it HERE)

Pay yourself.

Know that you don’t have to put yourself on the backburner to serve others or be a good wife/mom/person.

• Wearing sunscreen every day, all day (even if you’re not in the sun). I have big opinions on sunscreen my friends. One day I’ll do a blog post on them, but for now, here’s a link to another social media post I made on it.
• Neuromodulators like Dysport & Jeuveau can help soften wrinkles. There’s even a theory that relaxing the movement of facial muscles doesn’t break down the collagen as quickly!
• Working on collagen stimulation with treatments like Sculptra, lasers, and RFM. We lose 1% of collagen a year, starting at age 25. Since we’re talking about the management of aging skin, and you’re reading this, I suspect you fall into the 25+ category. As you read this blog post, you’re losing collagen. These treatments will help you regain collagen and restore that youthful elasticity and glow.
