At FORM Face + Body, we’ve long touted the benefits of a personalized, at-home skincare regimen that incorporates innovative, medical-grade products. The right skincare can completely rejuvenate your complexion and address your skin’s specific needs. One of the concerns we hear about most commonly is from patients who are starting to see the signs of aging on their skin. They notice the changes, but aren’t sure what to do about them or how a skincare routine can help.
As we age, collagen and elastin production slows and fine lines, wrinkles, volume loss, and skin laxity begin to appear. The right skincare can certainly help to address these issues and reveal a refreshed, healthy, radiant complexion you’ll feel great about. Here are some of our favourite anti-aging skincare products and how they work to create real change in your complexion.
1. SkinMedica® Retinol Complex
Retinol is an anti-aging secret weapon. This vitamin A-based compound stimulates collagen production and increases the rate of cell turnover to smooth lines and wrinkles, target uneven skin texture, fade age spots, and restore healthy colour to your skin by stimulating blood vessels. SkinMedica’s Retinol Complex comes in multiple strengths (0.25, 0.5, 1.0) and includes an antioxidant complex which helps reduce skin irritation. If you’ve never used retinol before, we recommend starting with a lower strength formulation while your skin adapts. Shop Retinols
2. SkinBetter Science® Alto Defense Serum™ FACE
Constant radiation delivered to the skin from our environment results in the production of free radicals, which can lead to skin damage, pigmentation and the progression of common signs of aging. Any modern day skincare regimen should include antioxidants to neutralize these volatile free radicals and protect the skin. Alto Defense Serum from SkinBetter Science delivers an impressive 19 antioxidant ingredients! When used daily, it works to neutralize free radicals and create a shield against oxidative stress, resulting in more vital, radiant skin. Shop Skinbetter Alto
3. SkinBetter Science® InterFuse® Treatment Cream FACE & NECK
This cream from SkinBetter Science uses a unique messenger blend of peptides to renew, calm, and restore firmness to the skin on the face and neck. Peptides are another anti-aging hero ingredient; they signal a need for more collagen production and promote cell turnover, elasticity, and more. This particular product helps to support five types of collagen to improve the appearance of skin sagging, lines, and wrinkles. Shop Skinbetter InterFuse Face & Neck
4. SkinMedica® TNS Eye Repair
An eye cream is a crucial part of any anti-aging skincare routine. TNS Eye Repair from SkinMedica not only includes TNS (a mixture of human growth factors, cytokines, antioxidants and matrix proteins) to improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, skin tone, and texture, but also contains peptides and vitamins A, C, and E to help support the skin around the eyes, as well as unique ingredients to help improve the appearance of dark circles.

5. SkinMedica® Total Defense + Repair SPF 50+
We can’t (and we won’t) talk about anti-aging skincare without talking about sunscreen. To protect your skin from the sun’s harmful rays, you should be wearing sunscreen every single day, year-round, rain or shine. SkinMedica’s Total Defense + Repair SPF 50 protects your skin from UVA and UVB rays. It also features SOL-IR™ Advanced Antioxidant Complex, a trio of potent antioxidants that protect against harmful infrared rays while helping to rejuvenate the skin. With a lightweight texture that leaves behind no white residue, it’s perfect for daily wear, with or without makeup! Shop SkinMedica Total Defense + Repair
