Dermatology-Recommended Dry Skin Treatment and Anti-Aging Medicine

by Gloria MacTaggart

Some people think that anti-aging medicine is a fad when in fact, it is not only a legitimate branch of medicine, it is one of the most advanced - a health care model based on the early detection, prevention and reversal of aging-related diseases.

The spectrum of physical health that anti-aging specialists tackle is a wide one - from optimal health to a medically identifiable state of pathology that requires medical intervention. Most doctors' expertise is with the latter, but anti-aging specialists also have additional multi-disciplinary training on the latest advances science has to offer in the fields of biochemistry, biology, physiology, sports medicine, molecular genetics, and emerging medical technologies.

One of the first areas on the body to show age is the skin. The rush to cosmetic surgery is evidence of just how much we value our youthful looking skin. One of the recent anti- aging breakthroughs is in the field of skin care and dry skin treatment.

Years of research led to the development of a shielding lotion that actually mimics the skin's ability to form a barrier that seals in natural oils and moisture, protecting the skin from harmful irritants in the environment and keeping that firm and youthful look.

With the use of anti-aging medicine and breakthroughs that can keep our skin looking young and healthy for years, there's a good chance that when our next birthday comes around we could feel better than we've felt in a decade. That's an opportunity that wasn't available to the parents of anyone now over 30. Even a decade ago you may have had to travel to a different city to find a doctor or a dermatologist trained in this field. Now you can find one quite easily.

Using the principles of anti-aging medicine can result in a longer life, and, as importantly, a higher quality of life where you can still function well enough to take full advantage of the wisdom of age and all the work you've put into getting where you are.
