A study published in Aging Cell is causing a stir across the Atlantic: a treatment would reverse the biological aging process. Some precautions should be taken: firstly, this is a very small clinical study, carried out in California on only nine men, aged 51 A 65. Another limitation was that there were no control groups, untreated people, or people on a placebo, to compare the results.
Reverse Aging Process: A clinical study shows a reversal of the epigenetic clock in these patients and other scientific news.
For this study, the team focused on the thymus, a gland that has an essential role in immune function. It synthesizes white blood cells but shrinks after puberty. The patients followed treatment with growth hormones for a year. The aim was to check whether the thymus could shrink with age. After an epigenetic analysis, we see that, da un lato, the patients have lost an average of two and a half years of their biological age and, d'altra parte, that their immune systems show signs of rejuvenation.

Reverse Aging Process: After its failed moon landing, the Indian probe Vikram was located
During the night from Friday to Saturday, Vikram, the Indian lander of the Chandrayaan-2 lunar mission, missed its moon landing. India lost all contact with the probe minutes before landing. Yesterday, the Indian space agency restored visual contact: Vikram was located on the surface of the moon. For the moment, it is impossible to reestablish communication and we do not know what state the module is in.
The Pragyan robot on board was to explore the South Pole of the Moon for its craters, likely to contain water. Nevertheless, the Chandrayaan-2 mission continues thanks to the “orbiter” probe, for seven years, it will study the lunar soil and atmosphere.
Aging Process: Women have a monthly cycle, but so does a daily hormonal cycle
According to a study published in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, women have a monthly cycle as well as a daily hormonal cycle. Researchers at Harvard University measured the levels of reproductive hormones in 17 women for 9 days and every 2 ore: the levels of estrogen and progesterone first, but also follicle-stimulating hormones and luteinizing hormones, which both act on the ovaries.
They discovered that during the first part of the menstrual cycle, that of ovulation, these hormones follow regular cycles every day. Researchers hypothesize that this would influence sexual arousal and moods. This remains to be verified by a larger study.
Reverse Aging Process: White barn owls’ plumage helps them hunt
Half of the barn owls have red feathers, the other half have white feathers. Why white for a nocturnal predator? It was a biological mystery. After following different groups of owls for more than 20 anni, a Swiss team has just published its results in the journal Nature Ecology & Evolution.
For hunting, the white owl is more efficient than the red owl. On full moon evenings, when it opens its wings, the rodents are dazzled and remain petrified. Why does the white owl have this evolutionary advantage over the red owl? Here is a new mystery.
Reverse Aging Process: 5 Good Habits For Preventing Sagging Skin
At the origin of supple and plump skin are elastin and collagen. However, by the age of 20, elastin and collagen levels gradually decline. In question? Fibroblasts, determine the amount of collagen and elastin necessary to have firm and toned skin, Col tempo, they become fewer and fewer in number and less and less alert. Nothing dramatic in itself, but sagging skin can be unsightly. Do these drooping features annoy you? Do you want to prevent and combat facial sagging effectively? Here are 5 good habits to adopt!
Strengthen the hydrolipidic film to prevent sagging skin
If skin sagging is natural, it can occur sooner or later, and to a greater or lesser extent, depending on your lifestyle. Certain factors promote sagging skin: exposure to the sun or daily pollution, a stressful lifestyle, an environment with extreme temperatures, eccetera.
Against all these attacks, which accelerate skin sagging, the hydrolipidic film will more or less protect your skin. Made up of water and sebum, this thin film covers the skin and acts as a barrier to external and internal aggressions. But for it to hold up well, it must be maintained. How? By hydrating and nourishing the skin twice a day (morning and evening), with a water-rich moisturizer. Depending on your skin type, it should also be rich in lipids, especially if you have dry skin. Be careful; hydration also happens internally; you must therefore drink, on average, 1.5 liters per day.
Practice facial gymnastics to reshape your features
Like our body, the face is made up of muscles that require regular work to stay toned. If skin sagging comes from a change in the composition of the tissues themselves, it can also come from a lack of tone in certain areas of the face.

COSÌ, facial gymnastics can be of great help! To be practiced for 5 A 10 minutes a day, facial gymnastics allows you to tone the underused muscles responsible for sagging the face, particularly in the cheeks and neck. The exercises will also allow you to stretch overworked muscles that have remained tense, causing certain expression lines, particularly those around the eyes or mouth.
After moisturizing your skin, perform your exercises every day (regularity is key). You can rely on an exercise book or tutorials on YouTube; many skin experts have started on the subject!
Use targeted treatments to combat facial sagging
To give yourself every chance of having results in your fight against sagging skin, don’t settle for a simple moisturizer. Daily, use a cream with active ingredients that will tighten the skin. We think in particular of treatments enriched with collagen, or those that stimulate fibroblasts. Like our Pure Pulp Neo, Quale, thanks to its formula enriched with Centella Asiatica and Condurango bark extract, reactivates fibroblasts to naturally increase elastin and collagen levels. The skin plummets; it regains its pretty features and relief.
To get the most out of your Pure Pulp Neo treatment, consider varying the uses: it can be used both as a daily moisturizer and as a mask. Simply apply it in thick layers and leave it on for 15 minutes. Then remove the excess with a tissue or a slightly damp wipe. You will be able to notice a real youthful boost.
Take care of your diet for toned skin
As you know, our skin is maintained not only with external treatments (creams, masks, and massages) but also with internal treatments. That is to say, by drinking enough water, and getting enough sleep, but also by providing the skin with all the nutrients it needs through food.
Organic fruits and vegetables
Thus, deficiencies in vitamins, minerals, or trace elements can make the skin more fragile, duller, and more easily subject to sagging. Consuming a lot of alcohol, coffee, refined sugar or bad fats can also trigger inflammatory processes in the skin tissue. Its hydrolipidic film is reduced, and the skin is left defenseless or almost defenseless against the sun, pollution, tobacco, eccetera. And it’s a disaster!
We therefore put fruits, vegetables, oilseeds, and fish on our plates, and we calm down on very rich, very fatty dishes and guilty pleasures like alcohol or coffee. A balanced diet will not only allow you to maintain young and firm skin but also prevent weight variations. Indeed, gaining weight, losing it, and regaining it will cause the skin to stretch, and then retract; it will therefore lose firmness and become distended, and this is what will cause facial relaxation.
Work on strategic areas to avoid a drooping appearance
When we talk to someone, there are areas of the face that we observe systematically and other areas that we rarely take the time to analyze. COSÌ, if we scrutinize our face to the nearest millimeter and find the slightest dramatic imperfection, most people stay focused on the eyes, even the forehead, and the contour of the face. Our circle of loved ones will, for their part, let their gaze wander over the mouth and cheeks.
The best way to leave the impression of toned skin? Play strategic! Limit sagging skin in the eye area, since it is the one that attracts the most attention. Our Eye Magic Lift, eye contour with massaging applicator brush can allow you to reshape the eye contour. It will help energize a drooping eyelid or reduce bags under the eyes.

Then, work on the cheeks, the contour of the mouth, and the entire contour of the jaw to sculpt the lower face and tighten the features. To do this, while applying your Pure Pulp Neo, take the time to massage the area around the mouth to relax all tension. Follow with targeted exercises on the cheeks and jaw, to strengthen all the micro-muscles in this area, which will be able to act in support of the tissues and limit sagging of the skin.
Skin Care To Prevent Aging & Wrinkles
Our skin is very sensitive to the effects of time. Quality changes over time. We begin by having a baby’s skin and the first buds appear, or redness and then wrinkles.
Here are some skincare products to prevent aging.
Adopt lighting And nourishment Care
Age spots may appear on the skin, especially around the eye area. Yet it is favorable to the appearance of wrinkled land. It is better to take a corrective treatment that prevents sun spots or acne. Premier Cru Cream-based viniferin stain vine helps to regulate the formation of melanin.
As the skin is a barrier against external aggression, sometimes it is about a lack of water. But dry skin is more prone to wrinkles. You have to remember to moisturize, opting for appropriate care as in the Hydra Vance Soothes example. Designed from a patented extract, Bolet 1055, this product stimulates skin hydration.
Take Care Regenerating And Soothing
In addition to the usual anti-wrinkle care, applying a regenerating cream also helps keep your skin smooth. Care Age Benefit with extracts from microalgae is applied at night to regenerate in depth. A period of normal sleep is also very good for the skin.
To cope with the redness and the itching while preventing wrinkles, Day Care Smoothing Shard Mix Expert is also adopted. This product causes redness, pimples, or very frequent tugging on sensitive skin. At the same time, it acts on the skin by feeding it.
Focus On The Concealer Care
The eye is a very sensitive area. Moreover, most of the time, this is the first wrinkle that appears. To treat dark circles in the morning, for example, simply add teaspoons, previously frozen, to the dark circles. Otherwise, the cosmetics counters are full of anti-aging treatments. To choose the right product, it is useful to refer to your skin type.
