Most anti-aging skincare focuses on the surface.
But skin aging doesn’t start there.
As we age, changes happen at the cellular level—collagen breaks down, senescent cells accumulate, and inflammatory signals quietly accelerate the process. No amount of moisturizer can fully address that.

This isn’t about trends or miracle creams. It’s about understanding why skin ages and what the research is beginning to reveal when we address the process at its root.
Dr. Rucker breaks down the science, the early clinical data, and what this could mean for the future of skin longevity—without the hype.
