Abstract:

During the last years, skin ageing and anti-ageing therapies have become an area of increasing research interest. High frequency ultrasound allows the in vivo appreciation of certain histological parameters and offers new characteristic markers, which may quantify the severity of the cutaneous senescence process and efficacy of anti-ageing therapies. The study presents some preliminary data regarding the effects of certain hydration and antiageing products containing Viniferol, at cutaneous level. The changes in the dermal echogenicity confirm the efficacy and direct action of Viniferol upon the cutaneous fibroblasts. The anti-ageing therapy can be correlated with the age of the subjects and the cutaneous phototype. The “critical age interval” involves specific changes in dermal echogenicity that quantify intense molecular, biochemical and structural changes, being thus mostly and highly responsive to the anti-ageing therapy.
