Disrupting Anti-Aging Skincare by Targeting Senescent Cells

Imagine accurately determining the status of your skin’s age to
tell whether it is younger or older than your chronological age,
and then use this technology to determine whether expensive
anti-aging serums and creams are effective, or actually causing
more harm than good. Amazing, right? This is precisely the
technology Dr. Carolina Reis Oliveira and her fellow stem cell
biologists at OneSkin created and you will find this interview
fascinating on so many levels – I know I sure did! After creating
their skin clock, the OneSkin team discovered peptide OS1, which
targets senescent cells, one of the root mechanisms of aging, and
is being shown in current studies to have a positive effect on
hydration, firmness, elasticity, and the skin barrier. Listen as
Dr. Reis explains the science and ongoing studies exploring the
possible benefits of OS1 for the skin microbiome, hair loss,
inflammation, and overall health.
