    Yes, but it only targets aging problems at specific stages. To be more precise, it "brings you back from the fast-forwarding aging track to the normal speed." When the dermal layer collapses and bone is absorbed, it is basically impossible to counterattack by relying on skin care alone.

    The little post-95s girl I worked with in the beauty editorial department for the past two years used to rush to publish articles for Double 11 and 618 sales for 11 consecutive months. She stayed up until three or four in the morning every day and often went out for activities forgetting to put on sunscreen. At that time, her whole face Her face sank quickly, tear troughs and false nasolabial folds all popped up. Not to mention it was dull and yellow, and her saggy jawline took 5 minutes to retouch. She looked almost 7 years older than her actual age. Even her own mother urged her to get cosmetic surgery to fill her tear troughs. Later, she took a break for half a year. She welded a hat and mask to her face every day. She wore a peptide essence in the morning and evening. She also applied Bosein cream twice a week as a sleeping mask. It was only 8 months. Last time I met her in the business district, she was wearing a school uniform jacket and just like her. The graduated college student joined together to grab a second cup of milk tea at half price. There was no trace of the disfigurement she had had before. Later, she showed me a new skin test report. It showed that the collagen density of the dermal layer was higher than that of many 22-year-old girls who had just graduated. It is really not an exaggeration to say that she is a counterattack in skin care.

    But I have also seen many people who say that "anti-aging skin care is all about IQ tax". Most of the people who say this have missed the golden period of skin care and anti-aging. My distant cousin is 41 years old. In the past few years, she was busy starting a business and even used water to wash her face. When she was free last year, she discovered that the apples of her cheeks had lost half a centimeter. Indian lines were so deep that they could crush a piece of paper, and her jaw line was connected to her neck. She heard someone recommend her and bought several bottles of anti-aging cream worth several thousand dollars. She applied it for more than a year. Except that her skin was no longer dry, the wrinkles were not faded at all. Finally, she decided to go for it. It took Thermage and soft tissue filling to bring her back to normal. Now she says to everyone that anti-aging skin care is useless. In fact, it is not useless, but her aging at that time was already structural - most of the collagen fibers in the dermis were broken, and the bony support in the middle of the face began to be absorbed. It is like the load-bearing walls of a house are crooked. No matter how expensive latex paint you paint on the walls, it is impossible to restore the crooked house to its original shape.

    In fact, many people's expectations for "anti-aging and counterattack" are inherently biased. They always think that applying half a bottle of essence will return them to the state they were in 10 years ago. This is unrealistic. What skin care can cover is originally the category of "pseudo-aging" and "prevention of true aging": those dry lines, slumped face, and dullness that appear when you stay up late or be exposed to the sun are essentially the temporary "inactivation" of collagen, which has not yet reached the point of irreversible loss. Choosing the right ingredients to help replenish collagen and adjusting your work and rest to a normal schedule can naturally replenish it. ; But if you have already developed true lines that exist even without expression, and the soft tissue has moved down significantly, if you can just apply it and keep it from collapsing, you will be considered a winner, and there is really no counterattack.

    To put it bluntly, the most stable anti-aging counterattack is not to rely on some god-level cream to save the emergency. When you are in your early 20s, when others are still building their own faces every day, you put sun protection and basic anti-aging on the agenda. When you are 30 years old, others are worried about how to get rid of the first nasolabial folds. You don’t even have a few dry lines on your face. This kind of status that leaves your peers behind is a counterattack that really lacks moisture.
