The Top Seven Anti-aging Developments of 2007 - Part Four

6. Antioxidants

In February 2004, results of a clinical trial of various antioxidants were presented at the annual meeting of the American Academy of Dermatology. The results rank-ordered the six topical antioxidants tested from most effective on down. Heading the list was
idebenone, followed by vitamin C, vitamin E, coenzyme Q10, kinetin, and alpha-lipoic acid.



Topical antioxidants have been shown to disarm free radicals and prevent oxidative damage to skin cells. Since 2004, only one antioxidant has been found that may displace another from the 2004 list. Studies on the coffeeberry as a topical antioxidant were reported to the American Academy of Dermatology at its 2006 annual meeting.




However it wasn’t until June of 2007 that a skin treatment line using coffeeberry was launched. The press release from Steifel Labs stated, “
Revaléskin can improve the skin's appearance so quickly because its primary ingredient, CoffeeBerry, is abundant in four powerful polyphenol antioxidants which help prevent and reduce superficial damage from sun exposure and free radicals.”
