They say the 40s is the age when people start to look visibly older, but truthfully, in terms of actually looking recognizably older, it is not really that easy to pinpoint the exact age when it begins. But there is a respite, as medical technology brings about new lasers and treatments that temporary halt or slow down the signs of aging. Indeed, there are even medical innovations that claim to reverse these processes, with studies showing changes in expression of genes associated with lifespan and longevity. Here are 5 anti-aging innovations you really should know about.   1. Sculptra Sculptra, or Dream Sculpture, is a cosmetic injectable that contains poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a biocompatible medical substance that stimulates intrinsic collagen production. It is an incredible collagen stimulator which allows your own facial tissues to volumize gradually (approximately 2 to 3 months) with your own collagen.

If you are still quite happy with the way you look, congratulations! But time does have its way of creeping up on people, and who’s to say who will look better as they age? Well, I have always been careful of the saying “burning the candle at both ends”, and now, in my late 30s, I am fairly comforted by the fact that I look younger than my real age. It takes a bit of effort, a little investment but you will thank yourself when you go for your next class reunion and log that youthful-looking face in a photo.   Build Up Your Collagen Bank   First of all, think of your skin’s collagen stores like a piggy bank. Collagen is abundant (like how parents put hard-earned money raising children) when we are young, but this Continue Reading
