Biology of Aging

You can be the most vigilant person in terms of your skin care, but if you don't take care of your body, your rejuvenation program may not be as effective. Imagine giving a classic car a great paint job, but ignoring the engine! Do you want to look like your still in your mid twenties while you feel like you're in your mid seventies?This section will help you understand what is behind the aging process. With good scientific background knowledge about the biology of aging, you will be able to know for yourself whether the skin care products on the market make sense scientifically or if they are part of a money-making scam.

Scientific jargon can get very cumbersome, as you probably know. It's also true that you are probably not a scientist; you just want better skin. For that reason this section was written with you in mind- trying to get as deep as needed into this complex subject while using jargon only when completely necessary.
