What exactly is anti-aging treatment?

Over time, skin changes, it's part of the natural cycle of life. But these changes, whether it's wrinkles, loss of firmness or pigment spots, can sometimes affect our self-confidence. This is where anti-aging skincare comes in. Contrary to what many may think, these products don't promise miracles, but they can really help maintain healthy skin and reduce some signs of aging. This article will give you an overview of what anti-aging skincare is, the key ingredients it contains, and how to choose the right products for your skin, using the Nohèm anti-aging range as a reference.

Definition of anti-aging treatment

1. What is an anti-aging product?

An anti-aging product is designed to help your skin better manage the signs of aging . It won't "erase" wrinkles, but rather nourish, hydrate, and firm your skin so it stays as firm and supple as possible. Whether it's a cream, serum, or oil, the goal is to slow down the appearance of new signs of aging while hydrating and stimulating your skin so it stays in shape.

Nohèm's anti-aging treatments, for example, do not seek to radically transform your appearance, but to support your skin with natural ingredients, providing it with the hydration and protection it needs day after day.

Key ingredients in anti-aging care

1. Anti-aging active ingredients

The foundation of effective anti-aging care is based on specific ingredients, but it is important not to expect miraculous results overnight. Active ingredients such as retinol, hyaluronic acid, peptides, or vitamin C are known to improve skin texture and help fade certain wrinkles over time.

• Retinol : It stimulates cell renewal, but can sometimes irritate sensitive skin.
• Hyaluronic Acid : Keeps skin hydrated and plump.
• Peptides : Help maintain collagen production, essential for firmer skin.
• Vitamin C : An antioxidant that can help lighten dark spots and protect skin from external aggressions.
• Glyalis 21 and Gatuline RC Bio: Present in the Nohèm range, these active ingredients help protect the skin against aging and strengthen its elasticity.

2. Hydration and well-being

It can never be said enough: well-hydrated skin is healthy skin . Hydration plays a vital role in combating the signs of aging. When skin is dehydrated, fine lines appear more quickly. This is where anti-aging care becomes useful, by strengthening the skin barrier. In addition, facial massages, for example with a gua sha or a roll-on, help to release tension and activate microcirculation, which provides a real moment of relaxation while boosting the effectiveness of the products.

Types of anti-aging care

1. Creams and serums

The difference between creams and serums is simple: creams hydrate and protect on the surface, while serums penetrate deeper with higher concentrations of active ingredients. There is no right or wrong choice, it all depends on your skin type and its needs. The Nohèm range offers both, letting everyone adapt their ritual according to their preferences.

2. Targeted care

The eye contour is a fragile area, thinner than the rest of the face, and this is often where the first signs of aging appear. Specific care for this area is essential to avoid overloading the skin. Products such as eye contour creams, or even moisturizing patches, are valuable allies to smooth and moisturize without being aggressive. Nohèm offers formulas adapted to treat these delicate areas gently.

3. Accessories

Tools like gua sha, obsidian sticks , or rollers are simple, yet effective tools for boosting circulation and relaxing facial muscles. They won't make wrinkles disappear, but using them regularly can really help give your skin a fresher glow, thanks to improved blood flow.

What is the difference between anti-aging and anti-wrinkle?

It’s easy to confuse the terms “anti-aging” and “anti-wrinkle,” but they’re not the same thing. Anti-wrinkle specifically targets wrinkles, while anti-aging takes a broader approach by also addressing firmness, radiance, hydration, and dark spots. In short, anti-aging care takes care of your skin as a whole so it ages better, taking into account several factors, not just wrinkles.

Signs of Aging That Anti-Aging Products Treat

1. Wrinkles and fine lines

Of course, wrinkles are the first thing that comes to mind when we talk about skin aging. Anti-aging skincare won't erase them, but it can really help make them less visible by hydrating the skin well and promoting its elasticity.

2. Sagging skin

It's a fact that skin loses its firmness as we age. Anti-aging skincare, especially those that boost collagen production, can help slow down this sagging by giving skin a little more tone.

3. Pigment spots

Brown spots or pigment spots caused by the sun are another common sign of aging. Skincare products containing vitamin C or other antioxidants, such as those offered by Nohèm, help to even out skin tone and reduce these spots, but again, patience is required.

4. Dull complexion and enlarged pores

A dull complexion can make skin appear older than it is. Anti-aging skincare helps restore radiance to skin by hydrating and stimulating microcirculation, while astringent actives can tighten pores.

Anti-aging treatments are not miracle solutions. They are part of a global approach to help the skin age better, by moisturizing , nourishing and protecting it on a daily basis. With natural and organic ingredients, theNohèm anti-aging range offers treatments that respect the skin while helping it stay healthy and luminous. It's about taking care of yourself with kindness, without trying to fight against age, but by gently accompanying it.
