Skin aging is not only a subjective matter of looking attractive or not, It is a real physiological process involving molecular signaling pathways that have effects on skin components. As a consequence of histological changes in the epidermis or collagen fibers’ degradation in the dermis, wrinkles are formed. This process takes place in the natural course of aging but environmental factors, such as sun exposure or smoking, have also an important influence on the aspect of our skin. Several techniques have been developed to objectively evaluate the ageing skin and the efficacy of anti-aging solutions. The treatments that have a proven efficacy in reducing wrinkles are mostly those performed by dermatologists, like hyaluronic acid fihlers or peelings. The cosmetics industry has being inspired by techniques used by aesthetic medicine to create new anti-aging products for home use. Cosmetics are however much less efficient to fight the consequences of time and very few clinical studies support the effects claimed by companies Le vieillissement cutané n’est pas uniquement une impression subjective de beauté. C’est un réel processus physiologique, impliquant des cascades de signalisation moléculaire qui ont un effet sur les composants de la peau. La conséquence des modifications histologiques au niveau de l’épiderme et de la destruction du collagène dans le derme, est l’apparition de rides. Ce processus s’inscrit dans le vieillissement naturel, mais l’environnement, comme l’exposition au soleil ou le tabac, a également une influence importante sur l’aspect de notre peau. Plusieurs techniques ont été mises au point pour évaluer objectivement le vieillissement cutané et l’efficacité des solutions anti-âge. Les traitements ayant prouvé leur efficacité sont principalement ceux effectués par les dermatologues, comme les injections d’acide hyaluronique ou les peelings. L’industrie des cosmétiques a été inspirée par ces techniques utilisées dans la médecine esthétique pour créer des nouveaux produits anti-âge à usage non-médical. Les cosmétiques sont cependant beaucoup moins efficaces pour combattre l’effet du temps et très peu d’études cliniques confirment les effets promis par les firmes.
