Confused about Skin Serums?
What is anti-aging serum and how does it work?
In the expansive market of anti-aging serums, it is often challenging to find products that truly stand out, particularly those that are fragrance-free, endorsed by dermatologists, and backed by multiple clinical studies. DefenAge 8-in-1 BioSerum is my choice and we’ve had our patients using this since 2016. This serum has a unique mechanism of action and potent star ingredient called Defensins, making it highly effective in reducing various signs of aging. Defensins in DefenAge activate your own baby stem cells to produce fresh healthy skin.
The DefenAge 8-in-1 BioSerum is a multi-tasking marvel, providing the benefits of eight different serums in one formula. This efficiency appeals to many patients who prefer a streamlined skincare routine. Since many patients want a single-step product, aside from sunscreen, and the BioSerum includes antioxidants, retinol, anti-inflammatories all-in-one. It hydrates, brightens and smoothes.
This serum is particularly beneficial for individuals aged 45 and older who aim to address signs of aging such as irregular texture, dullness, fine lines, wrinkles, sagging, pigment irregularities, enlarged pores, and inflammation. However, the serum is also suitable for younger individuals interested in preventive aging. It is effective in women and men. It improves skin healing before and after procedures, and is also used daily.
One of the remarkable aspects of this anti-aging serum is its suitability for all skin types. The serum’s appeal lies in its broad compatibility. The formula is gluten-free, fragrance-free, and noncomedogenic, ensuring it won’t clog pores. The light texture feels almost imperceptible on the skin.
The star ingredient in the BioSerum is a group of Defensin-molecules, specifically Alpha-Defensin 5 and Beta-Defensin 3, which are exclusive to DefenAge. These molecules rejuvenate the skin and offer an effective alternative to retinol, making the serum suitable even for sensitive skin types. Many patients with aging skin struggle with dryness and cannot tolerate the peeling and dryness associated with retinoids. The Defensin-molecules provide a gentle yet powerful alternative.
In addition to Defensins, the serum contains a blend of antioxidants, niacinamide, hydrating hyaluronic acid, DNA-repair enzymes, peptides, and natural soothing actives. These ingredients work synergistically to promote a youthful and rejuvenated appearance. Defensin-molecules activate the body’s master skin cells to generate new skin, mimicking the regenerative response seen in wound healing. This process results in the creation of younger skin without the need for actual wounding.
When compared in a study to PRP after microneedling the DefenAge showed better improvement and healing.
The skin in healed wound areas is always younger than the surrounding skin due to the activation of dormant cells during the healing process. Defensin-molecules replicate this mechanism, stimulating the production of new, young skin. This breakthrough in cosmetic skincare is considered one of the most significant advancements since the discovery of retinoids. Defensin-molecules also activate fibroblasts, stimulate collagen and elastin production, and boost the secretion of natural growth factors, further enhancing their anti-aging effects.
Clinical studies substantiate the efficacy of the 8-in-1 BioSerum. The serum and its key Defensin-based ingredient have been tested in 11 clinical studies, with results published in the peer-reviewed Journal of Drugs in Dermatology. A multicenter, prospective clinical trial involving patients aged 45 to 80 demonstrated significant improvements in periorbital wrinkling and sun damage after three months of using the BioSerum and 3D Radiance Eye Cream. The combination of these products improved all aspects of skin quality, including wrinkles, sagging, pigment irregularities, redness, texture, and radiance.
To use the BioSerum, apply it on clean skin after washing your face. If you are using DefenAge’s 24/7 Barrier Balance Cream, apply the cream first, followed by the BioSerum. This sequence may seem counterintuitive, but the moisturizing cream hydrates the skin, while the BioSerum, with its high concentration of Defensins, prevents water loss and enhances the cream’s moisturizing effect without feeling heavy. If you use other serums, such as vitamin C or retinol-based serums, apply them before the BioSerum to ensure proper absorption.
The BioSerum can also be applied to the neck, décolleté, hands, and other areas showing signs of aging. We recommend Defenage for its skin-rejuvenating properties and our patients use it post-treatments like microneedling or as prep before fillers and laser treatments.
Most users notice improved skin texture within two weeks, with more visible changes appearing after four to eight weeks. In our practice, if you are going to use one product, the 8 in 1 DefenAge serum in Baton Rouge is it!
In conclusion, the DefenAge 8-in-1 BioSerum in Baton Rouge stands out in the crowded market of anti-aging products due to its unique formulation, powerful ingredients, and proven clinical efficacy. It offers a comprehensive solution for those seeking to address and prevent signs of aging, making it a valuable addition to any skincare regimen.
