Anti Aging

BBC News | Health | Anti-ageing creams 'ineffective' Front Page World UK UK Politics Business Sci/Tech Health Education Sport Entertainment Talking Point In Depth On Air Archive Feedback Low Graphics Help Wednesday, June 9, 1999 Published at 12:42 GMT 13:42 UK Health Anti-ageing creams 'ineffective' Anti-ageing creams aim to slow the appearance of wrinkles Cosmetic lotions that promise to hold back the physical ravages of time are "ineffective", according to a leading skin specialist. The BBC's Nicola Carslaw: "Most women try out anti-ageing creams" Many of the physical signs associated with old age are down to inherited genes, sun exposure and smoking, according to Professor Chris Griffiths of the University of Manchester. A fellow dermatologist, Dr Nicholas Lowe, said that it was much more effective to apply sub block every day. Doctors and scientists are examining the evidence at a conference run by the Royal Society of Medicine. Fancy packs Prof Griffiths dismisses many anti-ageing remedies, saying they offer the buyer little more than expensive packaging. He agrees that sunscreens with a protection factor of greater than 15 can prevent - and maybe even reverse - signs of old age. But he stresses that the sunscreens must be used properly. He also says retinoic acid - available only on prescription - will repair and smooth the skin and reduce wrinkles. Dr Lowe said a small number of cosmetic creams had some effect in repairing damage to the skin, but it was more important to take daily action to protect against the ageing effects of the sun's ultraviolet rays. "The main message with creams is that if they contain an efficient sunscreen and you use it every morning then you are going to halt some of those ageing changes," he told the BBC. The BBC's Roxanne Panthaki looks at the UK's obsession with youth "The skin has a certain ability to repair itself when it is protected but these creams only have a modest benefit." While genetic factors played some part in the overall ageing process, lifestyle had a much greater impact on appearance - particularly the face, he said. "About 30% of facial ageing is genetic and a lot of the rest of the percentage is repetitive sunlight, smoking and other hazardous things we expose ourselves to," he said. Real psychological effect While some may dismiss excessive concern with appearance and ageing as harmless vanity, psychologists point out that looking old can cause serious mental distress. Dr Nicholas Lowe: Lifestyle is important Surveys show that many of the people who undergo plastic surgery to reverse appearance of ageing do so because they fear they will lose their job if they look old. Consultant psychologist Dr Eileen Bradbury said: "We are very fixed on the idea that youth is connected to not just beauty but to being powerful, being strong, healthy, energetic, having the best jobs and having the most money." About 35% of people aged 50 to 64 have no job - a much higher rate than many other European countries. BBC Breakfast News discusses the issues with Dr Eileen Bradbury and Dr Nicholas Lowe The government is so concerned that people face discrimination because of their older appearance that it has launched an Action on Age programme. It aims to persuade employers that discriminating on the basis of age makes bad business sense. The Royal Society of Medicine conference will hear that the cosmetics industry plays a vital role in putting health messages across, and employs dedicated scientists who carry out cutting-edge research on anti-ageing.

Search Customer Reviews 10 of 11 people found the following review helpful: Great soap BUT not as "mild" as it claims - read on! , July 16, 2004 Reviewer: claresmom "claresmom" (Wynnewood, PA)- See all my reviews I've used all versions of Dove soaps successfully for years, but "successful" for *me* means not using it on my face *ever* & not using it on my chest or back during the summer, when those areas of my skin become oilier than in cooler weather & more prone to break-outs. However, this soap *is* very moisturizing to the skin & I love using it in the shower during the winter. My daughter, who has dry skin year-round, uses it successfully year-round & it keeps *her* skin smooth & soft. It is so mild compared to most commerical bar soaps, in fact, that my pediatrician recommended using it as my daughter's bath soap when she was still an infant. However, if your skin is at all prone to breakouts, use something else for your face & any other susceptible areas. Although the claim is that each bar contains "1/4 cup of moisturizing lotion," in fact, the moisturizing components are derived principally from animal tallow (sodium tallowate), & coconuts (Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate, Coconut Acid, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Sodium Cocoate or Sodium Palm Kernelate), both of which can aggravate or trigger breakouts & blackheads in those susceptible to acne (see "Don't Go to the Cosmetics Counter without Me" by Paula Begoun). Moreover, take note before buying that the *principal* difference between the "sensitive skin" version & the standard formulation is that the "sensitive" version has no fragrance or coloring agents & includes some trace amounts of various botanical oils -- which SOME people ARE sensitive to!!!! Read. The. Label. Forewarned is forearmed!!! Was this review helpful to you? ( Report this ) 4 of 8 people found the following review helpful: It's soap! , March 2, 2004 Reviewer: R. BULL "a reader" (Kansas City, MO United States)- See all my reviews In review of soap I will say that it makes lather and gets me clean. Then I smell better. What else do you want to know? I like that I do not end up smelling like a flower and attracting bees. Actually, my wimpy skin dries out less with this soap than with most other soaps. And that's a good thing.

(Leicester UK)- See all my reviews ...with one slight draw back. It does everything it claims, leaves skin feeling cleansed and moisturised without any of that nasty tautness, tenderness or itchy feeling. It's just that this bar does not hold itself together well, the slightest bit of residual water on it when left in a soap dish and it's mush the following time you try pick it up. We have wasted several bars of this stuff because of it's mushiness and it's really hard to prevent it happening unless you hang soap from suspended strings! Was this review helpful to you? ( Report this ) 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful: Great Body Soap , January 28, 2005 Reviewer: Gina "College Student" (CT)- See all my reviews This soap is so great for my sensative skin! It smells great without having an offensive overbearing scent like other soaps. The scent is mild enough as to not interfer with the later application of perfumes and colognes. Great lather. Leaves my skin feeling fresh and clean. HOWEVER.... I don't use this on my face and I suggest you do not either if you have sensative skin. For face check out Clean & Clean Deep Action Cream Cleanser, or Cetaphil cleanser, as they are milder. Was this review helpful to you? ( Report this ) See all 7 customer reviews...
