Inspired by human-growth therapy - a controversial anti-aging treatment believed to yield thicker, smoother-looking skin is causing a stir among beauty aficionados. By spiking their formula with a bioengineered version of the hormone (which is produced by the pituitary gland in high levels during youth), experts at the company claim to restore it topically, potentially improving the performance of cell-renewing growth factors that rely on it for collagen production. Other high-tech lines are zeroing in on epidermal growth factors (EGF): non-hormonal proteins that reside within the skin itself. SkinMedica TNS Night Eye Repair and Essential Serum speed cell generation. |

 | Q & A: Ask the Skin Doc
Redbook
Q: Is there really anything I can do about Stretch Marks? A: Sadly, they're never going to go away completely, but you can make them somewhat less noticeable. Lasers, such as the V beam, and intense pulsed light treatments can reduce discoloration, as can OTC products with heavy-duty moisturizers (like shea butter and hyaluronic acid) which increase skin cell's turnover. And growth factors typically found in facial antiagers may help improve texture by stimulating skin growth. But no matter what you try, start soon, the newer your stretch marks, the more likely they are to respond to treatment. Editors picks: SkinMedica TNS Recovery Complex, with growth factors. |
