After years of research Dr. Perricone arrived at the conclusion that cellular
inflammation may be the underlying cause of wrinkles. According to Dr.
Perricone, this inflammation is not the redness that is visible to the naked eye
but rather microscopic irritation that takes place in your cells leading to
cellular damage. He believes that this inflammation is responsible for
skin-related problems like breakouts, wrinkles, and loss of firmness.
Dr. Perricone's holistic approach to aging treats this inflammation in three
ways: through diet, nutriceutical supplements, and his award-winning line of
cosmeceuticals. Through his program this type of inflammation can be stopped,
which slows down the skin's aging process and even reverses existing damage. The
effects of this program are not only visible externally but will enhance your
life with better overall health and increased energy.
