General causes of skin aging

Many factors influence the aging of the skin. These include an unhealthy lifestyle. For example, the skin of smokers usually ages much faster than that of non-smokers.

Unhealthy nutrition, inadequate skincare, and excessive influence of UV light also seem to harm the skin and accelerate aging. But that is not all. It may well be that two people with almost identical lifestyles age at different rates.

How genes influence skin aging

We now know that skin aging is influenced not only by a person’s general lifestyle but also by their genes. These individual differences are often severe and have a significant impact on the aging process.

Currently, more than 20 different genetic variations are known that affect more than eight different factors of skin aging.
Genetic analysis can help identify personal strengths and weaknesses and do something about skin aging.

How our Beauty Sensor works

For our Beauty Sensor, we analyze the genes relevant for skin aging in the sample sent in. In this way, we can determine the individual genetic status and its effects on the most critical factors influencing skin aging.

Among other things, we investigate collagen degradation, collagen production, UV protection, and skin moisture, as well as the influence of oxidative stress. In addition, we will examine the effect of Q10, the individual selenium requirement, and possible damage caused by genetically caused inflammatory reactions and biological age.

After a successful analysis, we summarize all test results in a comprehensive written evaluation. The report contains precise information on the factors that cause skin aging problems and how these can be counteracted by an individually adapted intake of certain nutrients.

In this way, our Beauty Sensor can help to improve the appearance of the skin and slow down the genetically determined aging process of the skin.
