DNA TEST – SKIN AGING

DNA Skin analyzes the determinant genes responsible for the genetic predisposition to premature skin aging. It provides information about the structure of the content of our tissues and the quality of collagen fibers.

In fact, some genetic features may increase the risk of the safety of fibroblasts of poor quality, i.e. collagen fibers with altered structure, compared to the one generally reserved. Therefore, the persistence of these unfavorable polymorphisms makes the skin less resistant to internal causes of development and more resistant to premature aging properties and deformations (sunlight, smoke, symptoms, malnutrition, etc.).

The test also provides information regarding dermal matrix remodeling while specifically revealing the presence of genetic traits that may predispose to increased metalloproteinase enzyme activity. Such enzymes accelerate the maturation of extracellular dermal proteins such as collagen, elastin, and proteoglycans, leading to destructive remodeling.

Individual susceptibility to inflammation, oxidative stress and glycation, which are fundamental processes of cellular aging, are also analyzed.

Finally, personalized suggestions and recommendations emerge regarding the foods to prefer and avoid and the lifestyle to adopt.

With the help of the Skin Aging test, the physician/specialist can plan an individualized diet and preventive diet in conjunction with the overall clinical picture and recommend personalized supplements and/or advanced therapies according to specific needs.
