Cosmetic Corner: Dermatologists Weigh in on Antiwrinkle Treatments

To improve patient care and outcomes, leading dermatologists offered their recommendations on the top antiwrinkle treatments. Consideration must be given to:

• eCO2

Lutronic

"For antiwrinkle treatments, nothing beats a resurfacing procedure. At this time I believe that fractional CO2 laser resurfacing gives the best results with the least risk. You give up some efficacy compared to fully ablative CO2 laser resurfacing, but there is a markedly lower incidence of significant adverse events with the CO2 laser. We have been using the Lutronic eCO2 laser for the last few years and have been very happy with it."—Mark G. Rubin, MD, Beverly Hills, California

• Eucerin Q10 Anti-Wrinkle Sensitive Skin Creme

Beiersdorf, Inc

Recommended by Deborah S. Sarnoff, MD, New York, New York

• Kinerase Pro+ Therapy Tretinoin Gel 0.05%

Valeant Pharmaceuticals North America LLC

"Kinerase tretinoin has superior tolerability to generic tretinoin. The vehicle is elegant, and our patients complain less about peeling and irritation."—Amy J. Derick, MD, Barrington, Illinois

• Lifeline Skin Care

International Stem Cell Corporation

"Lifeline Skin Care is the first antiaging product derived from nonembryonic human stem cells. The serums lead to increased hydration and stimulate collagen to improve the appearance of wrinkles. I have noticed a definite improvement in my skin."—Elizabeth K. Hale, MD, New York, New York

• Rapid Wrinkle Repair Night Moisturizer in conjunction with Olay Pro-X Wrinkle Smoothing Cream

Neutrogena Corporation and Procter & Gamble, respectively

Recommended by Marian Northington, MD, Birmingham, Alabama
