Work Wonders On Eye Wrinkles With Alpha Lipoic Acid

Alpha lipoic acid (ALA) is a natural, antioxidant that exists deep inside every cell in our bodies. It can increase the positive effects of other antioxidants such as vitamins C and E. ALA also has the ability to affect metabolism. This is important because aging cells have a slower metabolism, which leads to a reduced ability to repair damage. ALA can actually increase a cells metabolism, meaning that the cell increases its energy production and capacity to heal.

A study conducted by Nicholas Perricone, M.D., among patients aged 35 to 55, found that the use of 1% ALA in a lecithin-based lotion used twice a day revealed:

• Decreased under eye puffiness within 1 to 2 days.

• Skin exhibiting a healthy glow within 5 days.

• A reduction in the number of enlarged pores after 2 weeks.

• Significant reductions in fine lines around the eyes between weeks 4 and 8.

• A decrease in the depth of facial lines between weeks 8 and 12.

• Improved skin texture after 3 months.

Combined with vitamin C ester, Dr. Perricone found a way to reduce, and in some cases, eliminate fine lines, wrinkles and furrows, sallow or dull skin tones, and puffy or dark under eye circles. ALA is at its best in treating those conditions and is widely available in capsules, creams, lotions and masks to meet your specific needs.
