Skin aging is a natural process that affects everyone as they grow older, however, there are several factors that can accelerate the aging process, including cellular degeneration. Our skin is composed of various types of cells, each playing a crucial role in maintaining its health and appearance. Understanding these cellular mechanisms can help us take steps to slow down the aging process and maintain healthier, more youthful-looking skin. Welcome to another episode of the Biohacking Beauty podcast brought to you by Young Goose Skincare! In this episode, host Amitay Eshel, the CEO of Young Goose, is joined by Dr. Sandra Kaufmann to discuss the cellular causes of skin aging, and her work in developing the Kaufmann protocol. We’ll also cover why both internal and external care is necessary for optimizing skin health, and why mixing up your skincare can be beneficial for aging skin.
