Overview
Age Advantage Wrinkle Reduction seems to be very similar to other wrinkle reducing formulas on the market. It includes several common ingredients found in other formulas, so AntiAging-Reviews.com is still not sure what makes this formula special. Even though the company claims to have conducted extensive research in the anti-aging field, the lack of specific research on the web site leads us to believe that this is merely a copycat formula.
Featured Ingredients
Glycolic Acid. Before 1992, Glycolic Acid was available only by prescription from a doctor, because it was such a strong ingredient that could cause severe irritation and peeling. Scientists have questioned the use of this ingredient because of the risk of side effects, and the long-term effects are still not conclusive.
CoQ10 is used by the body to help generate energy within the cells. Skin tests suggest that CoQ10 helps give skin a younger look. The company claims that CoQ10 is especially useful around the eyes and skin near the mouth. While it does seem to have a surface effect, it is unclear whether CoQ10 does anything for the inner layers of skin, which need just as much rejuvenation, if not more, than the surface area. That’s why deeply penetrating ingredients, like Regenex and Lifting Spheres, may make a better choice for an overall anti-wrinkle effect.
Collagen. We tend to be skeptical of products that contain collagen, since many of these products use collagen derived from shellfish, which can irritate skin allergies. In addition, science has yet to prove that whole collagen can actually penetrate the skin, making this ingredient questionable. It makes far more sense to deliver nutrients into the skin that can stimulate collagen production, such as Regenex and Glucosamine Complex.
Web Site Description
The Age Advantage Web site seems fairly simple in its presentation of the product. It does list the ingredients included in this product, which is better than most companies, which tend to hide its full list. However, the site does not contain any full research on the ingredients, and no customer testimonials are listed.
Positives
- Web site does list the product ingredients
Negatives
- No collagen boosting ingredients
- Use of collagen is questionable
- No clinical research or customer testimonials
ConclusionWhile it is pretty clear that Age Advantage will not have any detrimental effects on the skin, it also doesn’t seem to include the necessary components for creating the kind of rapid wrinkle reduction that most customers want. While Age Advantage Wrinkle Reduction can possibly make a good supportive product for a more powerful wrinkle reducer, we would not recommend it as the primary mode of treating wrinkles.
