Overview

Preventin-AT is a formula designed to reduce wrinkles and fine lines, and currently is being offered at one of the lowest prices for a product in this category, at $29.95. While this price might be appealing to some customers, the AntiAging-Reviews.com research team has found that many such products tend to also be cheap in results. That’s why we decided to analyze Preventin AT further.

 Featured Ingredients

Upon further analysis, we found that Preventin-AT consists mainly of cleansing agents and emollients, which are supposed to soothe the skin. Even though the company claims that Preventin-AT will have an effect on wrinkles, none of the ingredients would normally cause such reduction.

Cetyl Alcohol is a cleanser that is listed as one of the first ingredients in the Preventin-AT formula. While it is a powerful astringent that wipes away dirt and grime from the skin, it has been found to be too harsh, so much so that it can dry the skin after regular use. Perhaps that is why Preventin-AT contains Cucumber extract, in the hopes of balancing out the effects of Cetyl Alcohol and the other harsh cleansers in the formula. Cucumber does have a soothing effect on the skin and helps reduce inflammation.

But the biggest concern is that Preventin-AT does not contain any of the proven anti-wrinkle ingredients found in the best products, including Glucosamine Complex, Regenex, Lifting Spheres or Hyaluronic Acid. These ingredients, when combined into one formula, help reduce wrinkles, boost collagen production and hold moisture in the skin to protect it from future wrinkles. Unfortunately, Preventin-AT does not contain any of these compounds.

 Web Site Description

The web site for Preventin-AT contains very little information about the product, other than listing its ingredients and claiming to reduce wrinkles for a more youthful appearance. There is no research to support these claims, and considering that Preventin-AT contains mostly cleansers, we’re not surprised. In addition, the web site does not feature any testimonials from customers who have used the product.

 Positives

 - Cleansing ingredients will probably clean skin

 Negatives

 - Overuse can lead to dry and irritated skin

- No collagen boosters or moisture-retention nutrients

- No risk-free trial or customer testimonials

 Conclusion

Even though Preventin-AT claims to help reduce wrinkles and other signs of skin aging, there is nothing in the formula that convinces the AntiAging-Reviews.com research team that the product can produce this effect. For these reasons, we cannot recommend this formula at this time.

Overview

Upon visiting the Renuven web site, the AntiAging-Reviews.com research team was intrigued at the company’s unique challenge to consumers. They ask those that try the formula to apply it to one side of the face, wait a few minutes and see if they can notice an anti-aging effect when compared to the other side of the face. While such an instant effect is possible, we were skeptical because most products that do so only perform a temporary youthening effect that does not last. We decided to look further and see if Renuven could actually turn back the clock for skin.

 Featured Ingredients

Renuven’s instant effect seems to come from its inclusion of Silicon Dioxide, which is used by many companies to create the impression that the skin looks younger. Even though companies claim that Silicon Dioxide reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, we know that this effect is achieved because Silicon Dioxide is a synthetic chemical that reflects light differently than skin. So any visible youthening of the skin is really an illusion.

That does not mean that Renuven doesn’t have promise. It also includes Hyaluronic Acid, which is a powerful compound that holds up to 1,000 times its own weight in water. That means that skin remains moisturized and that collagen and elastin - which keep skin firm and smooth - can remain strong and healthy. The good news is that Renuven contains Hyaluronic Acid, which almost makes up for its attempt at trickery.

 Web Site Description

Although the web site for Renuven is bold, presenting the “half-face” challenge to its customers, it does lack the necessary information needed to make a sound judgment about the formula’s anti-aging effects. It does not fully disclose how Silicon Dioxide achieves its magical results, nor the fact that they are in fact temporary. In addition, no free trial for the product is offered, meaning that once consumers purchase Renuven and realize that it doesn’t address most of the root causes of wrinkles, they are struck with it.

 Positives

- Contains Hyaluronic acid for superior moisturization

 Negatives

- Silicon Dioxide provides temporary youthening for the skin based on light reflection

- No collagen boosters like Glucosamine Complex or Regenex

- No free trial offered

 Conclusion

Even considering that the makers of Renuven seem ready to back up their bold claim of instant wrinkle reduction by offering a money-back guaranteed, we could not be duped. Because the effect will not last, even though the formula does contain Hyaluronic Acid. Without collagen boosters, Renuven will likely not create the kind of lasting protection against wrinkles that today’s consumers are looking for.

Overview

The company that manufactures and distributes Freeze 24-7 claims that this formula can make a viable alternative to Botox and other chemical injections. They report that Freeze 24-7 can immediately firm and tighten the skin, while also providing ingredients that reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. They also claim that this effect results in 50% to 90% fewer wrinkles after just a few days of use. These are strong claims, which prompted the AntiAging-Reviews.com research team to look further into the product.

 Featured Ingredients

Considering that Freeze 24-7 is supposed to mimic the effects of Botox and produce instant anti-wrinkle effects, its actual ingredients are puzzling. For example, Freeze 24-7 contains GABA, which stands for Gamma-Amino-Butryic-Acid. GABA is a neurotransmitter produced in the brain, where it has been found to produce calming effects that reduce the emotional results of stress. GABA is also reported to be connected to Human Growth Hormone, which seems to have many benefits for the body, including keeping muscles lean, bones strong and skin youthful. It seems to use that Freeze 24-7’s inclusion of GABA seems to be an indirect way of boosting Human Growth Hormone - which is available only as a prescription injection - in the hopes of producing a youthening effect in the skin. Unfortunately, there are no studies verifying that this effect will be achieved.

In addition, Freeze 24-7 contains a curious mixture of botanicals and synthetic chemicals that may cancel each other out. For example, while the formula contains Gymnostemma Pentaphyllum, otherwise known as Southern Ginseng, which can have an antioxidant effect on the skin, it also contains Bismuth Oxychloride, which can be potentially toxic. Bismuth Oxychloride results from copper and lead refinement processes and has a chemical composition similar to the poison arsenic. We are very wary of adding such an ingredient into the skin.

 Web Site Description

While the Freeze 24-7 web site seems to be heavy on claims and text that is meant to convince the visitor to purchase the product immediately, it is light on the real substance that matters. The site does contain customer testimonials, but considering how weak the formula actually seems, we have to wonder if they are outdated. In addition, there is no research supporting the use of GABA and the other ingredients in the formula.

 Positives

- Testimonials posted on the web site

 Negatives

- Use of Bismuth Oxychloride could be irritating or dangerous

- No clinical research on the use of GABA in the skin

- No collagen boosters or moisturizing compounds like Hyaluronic Acid

 Conclusion

Despite the wild claims of Freeze 24-7 being a viable alternative to Botox, a scientific analysis of the formula fails to verify these effects. We have serious reservations about recommending Freeze 24-7, since a lack of research suggests that the product may be more hype than help.

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.
