The anti-aging market is flooded with products and promises, making it hard to know what truly works. As board-certified dermatologists in Ibadan, we believe in an evidence-based approach to graceful aging.
The cornerstones of any effective anti-aging routine are: Sun protection, antioxidants, and retinoids. Sunscreen is non-negotiable for preventing UV-induced aging. Antioxidants, like Vitamin C serum, help protect your skin from environmental damage. Retinoids (like retinol or prescription tretinoin) are the gold standard for stimulating collagen and reducing fine lines, with extensive research available from institutions like the Skin Cancer Foundation.
For more significant results, we offer in-office procedures. Botox is excellent for dynamic wrinkles (like frown lines), while dermal fillers can restore lost volume in areas like the cheeks and lips. Laser treatments and chemical peels can improve skin tone and texture. A consultation with our experts will help you create a realistic and effective plan tailored to you.
