Hayflick Limit: Do Any Procedures or Creams/Lotions Affect This Negatively?

No doctors have answered any Hayflick questions posted here on RealSelf, which leads me to wonder, of course, why? Is the answer unknown? This is rather disturbing if this is the case. I do ask any doctor with relevant knowledge to please respond with your point of view. Is Hayflick limit affected by any of these procedures, ablative or non-ablative, by any creams, and if so, then what is the true long term value of these procedures?

Doctors will not see your comments on their answers. If you'd like to follow up, please go here to ask another question.

I agree Karin. And, as you can see, still no doctor has answered yes, no, I don't know. It would be nice to hear from some professional, instead of the utter silence.

I noticed this too. I think that the answer is still an unknown in the scientific community, and dermatologists should at least have the decency to make their patients aware of that.
