Type of aging and current skin condition
Status praesens – the current state of the skin – is one of the most important criteria for developing an adequate individual geroprotective program. An objective assessment of the condition of any constitutional type of skin determines the success of all further work of the cosmetologist.
Most often, involutional skin changes are grouped into three typical groups: 1. Mimic type of aging that occurs at the earliest times. 2. A fine-wrinkled type of aging caused by a violation of the water homeostasis of the skin. 3. Deformation type of aging caused by the action of gravity on involutionally changed tissues.

- How to increase the antioxidant reserve of the skin?
