Perricone

“Dr. Nicholas Perricone’s decades of research has shown that the inflammation-aging connection is the single greatest precipitator of aging and age-related diseases. This inflammation is sub-clinical (invisible to the eye) and takes place on a cellular level. It does its damage by triggering free radicals, which accelerate aging by attaching to and damaging cells.”

 

According to Dr. Perricone, we can “control inflammation in our bodies and thereby delay/reverse the signs of aging.” Dr. Perricone’s “prescription” for aging skin is actually 3-tiered: Anti-inflammatory Diet; Nutritional Supplements; and Topical Anti-Inflammatories. Referred to as a “Perricone Power Product”, Advanced Face Firming Activator—a “ramped up” formula contains Alpha-Lipoic Acid and claims to target sun damage and deep lines and wrinkles. Perricone Ceramic Skin Smoother touts itself as a revolutionary hybrid gel that not only corrects fine lines and wrinkles, but acts as a primer for makeup. Perricone's latest breakthrough, seen in recent advertising, is Ceramic Eye Smoother, which touts a 100% improvement in skin brightness, along with improved tone and elasticity.

 

Dr. Perricone has written numerous books on anti-aging beauty—two of which became New York Times Bestsellers, including “The Wrinkle Cure: Unlock the Power of Cosmeceuticals for Supple, Youthful Skin”.
