WHAT IS ANTIAGING MEDICINE

Aging is a natural process that occurs, however, in different times and ways. Although it’s an irreversible phenomenon, there are some factors which can quicken the appearance of disorders and pathologies linked to aging. Smoking, pollution, sun exposure, unregulated diet, low quality of sleep and hormonal, vitamin or nutritional deficiencies can alter the ordinary organic evolution to facilitate the body weakening. Anti-aging medicine studies the processes at the origin of cellular aging to suggest therapeutic protocols that allow people to maintain a healthy and efficient organism by slowing down age-related dysfunctions and disorders.

What is antiaging medicine

Anti-aging medicine is an innovative branch of medicine that works with a holistic approach to delay, treat or reverse the biological processes underlying cellular aging, acting in a preventive and regenerative function. The aim of anti-aging medicine, therefore, is to fight pathologies and disorders related to aging, maintaining a healthy body through the adoption of multifaceted strategies that strengthen the organism. Anti-aging gives much importance to prevention, encouraging healthy lifestyles that include a balanced diet, regular physical activity and an acquired ability to manage stress. At the same time, it implements technologies and treatments, as well as specific supplementation therapies. The slowing down of cellular aging gives the possibility of optimizing organic functions and preventing and managing age-related dysfunctions, including chronic ones.

Antiaging medicine therapies

Anti-aging medicine is an advanced science that focuses on the physiological mechanisms at the origin of aging processes so as to study useful systems to prevent and treat them. This translates into multiple therapies that focus in particular on hormonal and nutraceutical supplements to respond to the deficiencies that arise with age. Among the expressions of anti-aging medicine we also find infiltrative therapies, such as oxygen-ozone therapy or platelet-rich plasma-based treatment, that focus on cellular regeneration processes. At the same time, anti-aging medicine proposes balanced lifestyles, in which great importance is given to diet, sport and an acquired ability to manage anxiety and stress.

Anti-aging medicine and aesthetic medicine

Aging is closely connected to the aesthetic dimension since it is evident on the outside. For this reason, anti-aging medicine and aesthetic medicine collaborate to slow down cellular and skin aging, which starts from a systemic decay to reveal itself even in an external manifestation. By treating imbalances and dysfunctions, anti-aging medicine has a positive impact on blemishes and aesthetic flaws. So, anti-aging therapies can be considered an expression of aesthetic medicine.

Effectiveness and personalization of anti-aging medicine

Anti-aging medicine considers aging as a physiological process that shows peculiar characteristics on each individual. Therefore, for the approach to be effective, each therapeutic path should be personalized on the basis of specific tests and check-ups that provide an exclusive vision of the patient. In this way, treatments are established in an individual and targeted way so that they act according to the individual’s needs. This modus operandi guarantees the effectiveness of the therapy.

Anti-aging medicine acts at a systemic level, so the results of a therapy translate into general well-being.

Contraindications of antiaging medicine

The tools used by anti-aging medicine have many forms, which must be operated by an expert doctor who can guide the patient towards the best treatments. This said, anti-aging contemplates virtuous practices and behaviors, adopting balanced lifestyles with the support of therapies which, if carried out correctly, have no contraindications.

PRP and exosomes: the innovation in skin regeneration

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is a blood component already known for its ability to stimulate cellular regeneration and improve skin quality naturally. Recently, it has been discovered that exosomes, used in combination with PRP, enhance its power. Exosomes, small extracellular vesicles, are in fact able to accelerate tissue regeneration and, consequently, improve the aesthetic outcome of the treatment.

PRP and skin rejuvenation: the secret to fresh and glowing skin

Skin rejuvenation is one of the most pressing goals of aesthetic medicine. As we age, the skin tends to lose elasticity, brightness and firmness due to the physiological decline in collagen and elastin production. From this perspective, Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is a revolutionary, safe and natural treatment to improve skin quality and reduce the signs of aging.

PRP AS A TOOL OF REGENERATIVE MEDICINE: A COMPLETE INSIGHT

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is one of the most innovative and versatile therapies used in regenerative medicine because, using growth factors naturally present in our blood, can accelerate the recovery and regeneration of tissues. Thanks to its effectiveness, this therapy is widely used, for example, in dermatology, orthopedics, neurology, gynecology and dentistry.
