Zombie cells contributing to aging process explained, along with strategies to combat them
In the ongoing quest to combat skin aging, a new player has entered the arena. The Cetaphil Skin Activator Hydrating & Firming Collection, designed to combat the effects of senescent cells, is making waves in the skincare industry.
Senescent cells, often referred to as 'zombie cells', are technically alive but in growth arrest due to various stressors. They have been identified as a major contributor to skin aging, leading to inflammation, tissue damage, poor wound healing, and skin aging. Dermatoporosis, a condition that starts early, possibly in the 20s and 30s, causing the skin to gradually thin due to senescent cells, was first recognized and described in connection with this condition in the early 2000s.
The Cetaphil Skin Activator Hydrating & Firming Collection addresses the root cause of skin aging by awakening cells and potentially rebuilding lost collagen. The collection's hero technology is Skin Activator Technology, which delivers microdosed mandelic acid (AHA) and encapsulated centella asiatica (CICA) to reawaken surface skin cells and combat senescent cells.
The collection includes three products: Hydrating & Firming Cream, Hydrating & Firming Neck, Chest & Face Cream, and Hydrating & Firming Lotion. All of these products are fragrance-free and clinically proven to improve skin firmness and hydration.
The Hydrating & Firming Cream is clinically proven to smooth skin texture in one week and visibly firm in four weeks. The Hydrating & Firming Neck, Chest & Face Cream is clinically proven to improve the appearance of skin's volume for less crepey looking skin. The Hydrating & Firming Lotion is clinically proven to improve the appearance of skin crepiness in one week. All three products hydrate for 48 hours and activate the skin's moisture barrier for more hydrated skin in one week.
A 12-week clinical study conducted by Galderma on the Cetaphil Skin Activator Hydrating & Firming Collection showed a statistically significant increase in skin thickness after just one month of use. The study was conducted on a population of at least 65-year-olds with dermatoporosis.
The Cetaphil Skin Activator Hydrating & Firming Collection stands out due to its affordable price point compared to other products addressing senescent cells. Mariska Hargitay, known for her acting roles, has been chosen as the face of the Cetaphil Skin Activator Hydrating & Firming Collection campaign to educate consumers about the product and share its empowering messages.
Other products aiming to delay the formation and spread of senescent cells include the Orveda The Omnipotent Concentrate and Noble Panacea Peptide8 Night Serum. The Elysium Senolytic Complex is a supplement that focuses on clearing out senescent cells. The One Skin OS-01 Face Topical Supplement has been proven to reduce the number of senescent cells by up to 50%.
In the world of skincare, the Cetaphil Skin Activator Hydrating & Firming Collection is a beacon of hope, offering a solution to combat the effects of senescent cells and promote healthier, more youthful-looking skin.
