Is Anti Aging Cream Safe?

Anti Aging Topical Skin Care Products

There are all sorts of anti aging products in the market. It's hard to determine nor underpin if they are effective or not given all the over hypes and promotions put up by the big cosmetic and youth preserving industries.

Anti aging and wellness products are categorized as 'cosmetic' in nature and are therefore not regulated by the FDA nor required any approval for sales by the health authority of most countries.

Some of the so-called 'proprietary' core ingredients are not labelled clearly on many of such products. You never know what accumulates into your body and the potential side effects as a result of prolong treatment.

Topical Treatment Not As Safe As You Think

Most people assume that cream applied to skin is quite safe but is that truly the case? On the contrary, the advent in nano technology has made it possible to develop microscopic nano particles that can easily penetrate and enter the blood stream.

Please check out the following site on the possible health dangers associated with nano particles.  You may wonder why more and more companies are utilizing such technology in wellness and health care products. 

Final Thoughts

As of  today, health authority of most countries do not have any unified establish standard body to adhere to so as to regulate and monitor the risk associated with nano particles used in wellness topical products.

As the saying goes, you should not apply stuffs on your skin which you will not put into your mouth. Is anti aging cream safe?  I am not so sure, you be the judge.
