Wrinkle Treatment – Why Botox is not Really the Best

If you follow the beauty regimens of Hollywood celebrities, it may seem like the best wrinkle treatment is Botox. Famous people know every beauty tip and have beauty experts available to them. But still you wonder, is Botox the best for me? We’ve all seen actresses (and actors) at the Oscars with that frozen look on their face. They probably had a fresh Botox injection a few hours before. Yes, wrinkle-free skin would great, but is that how you want your face to look?

The alternative is to find the best wrinkle cream.

You’re probably thinking…”yeah, easier said than done”. Like me and everyone else, you’ve probably been through loads of wrinkle creams. It can be frustrating when you buy product after product and get poor results. But maybe you have been picking wrinkle treatment creams based on the wrong criteria. Hear me out on this.

A lot of skincare consumers choose an anti-wrinkle cream because of an advertisement. Or because a friend told them about it. Or even because the packaging appealed to them. This is not how you choose a quality product.

To be considered the best wrinkle cream, a product should stop the three major causes of skin aging. Do you know what they are? Here is a list…

  • Collagen and elastin loss

  • Breakdown of hyaluronic acid

  • Free radical oxidation damage

A wrinkle treatment cream that address all three of these agers will smooth out wrinkles. It’s even better than botox, because it targets the root causses of aging skin. On the other hand, botox provides a temporary fix; it only masks the damage going on inside skin cells.

Let’s discuss collagen and elastin loss. Collagen and elastin are two very important skin proteins that, unfortunately, your body produces less and less of with age. Without collagen, your skin loses firmness and those undesireable wrinkles show up.

Now, as a consumer, you should be aware that many skincare and cosmetics companies market collagen dishonestly. They list collagen on the label, leading unsuspecting people to believe that they can just rub new collagen into their skin. But what they don’t say is that this type of cosmetic collagen can’t be absorbed into skin cells because the molecules are too big. You won’t get firming benefits this way. So how can you increase the collagen supply in your skin?

There are natural substance that stimulate your skin cells to produce more collagen and elastin on their own. One such substance with this power is called Cynergy TK. It contains functional keratin, an essential protein in the structure of skin. Before it’s appearance on the market, this ingredient was scientifically proven to boost collagen and elastin in human clinical trials.

Here are the results of one trial:

A sustained 18 percent increase in skin moisture retention over 18 days

A sustained 42 percent increase in skin elasticity over 18 days

I use an anti wrinkle treatment cream that contains Cynergy TK and these statistics give me peace of mind. They tell me that this product is effecting postive changes at the cellular level. After using so many crappy products, it’s nice to use a product that’s backed up by science. I really feel like I’m using the best wrinkle cream available.

So what’s your next step? Well, I encourage you to look for a skin cream that contains not only Cynergy TK, but ingredients that stop the other two major skin agers as well. At my website, you can learn about natural substances that stop all three root causes of skin aging.

What is a good lotion to use after pregnancy for skin firming and dryness?

I had my son 6 weeks ago and my skin is seriously dry. I’ve tried using Dove and Oil of Olay body wash and I use Jergens Skin Firming lotion and Palmer’s Cocoa Butter firming cream. It seems to work at first then a couple of hours later, my skin is dry again.Also, I haven’t noticed any firmness happening. Help!

So called firming lotions are not miracle workers, they can only do so much, and they generally take a long time. If your skin is very dry then you could try using a cream rather than a lotion (the heavier textured creams are more moisturising than the lotions) or you could go to your GP if it is really problematic and they will probably suggest something more effective than the cosmetic creams you can buy. Skin moisture levels are also due to diet, so make sure yours is as healthy as possible, and remember that it does need to include some fats. Fats and oils are a vital part of any diet, and can make a big difference to the condition of your skin and hair.
