Aging – whether you like it or not, it happens with the passage of each year, day, minute. How to define “aging gracefully” and “age-fighting” has evolved over time, but today’s trends show a growing demand for anti-aging services and products as the older population seeks to get the most out of life.

Looking and feeling young is likely the focus of most, if not all, of the human population. An interest in lifestyle choices and products that facilitate this focus is not new, but in the last year, statistics point to a growing demand for such products and services, especially non-surgical treatments that target facial aging. In fact, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) measuring demand for anti-aging products between now and 2033 is forecast at 5.5%.

People are more aware than ever before that the choices they make regarding activities and products can have a big impact on the aging process, including how they feel and how they look. Among the biggest concerns: wrinkles, fine lines, and skin dullness. Fortunately, more products are now available that can help with these concerns.

How to fight aging

Aging can mean new aches and pains, weight gain, loss of muscle, wrinkles, and dry skin. Fighting these things isn’t all about products. Consider the following:

• Fight the aches and loss of muscle by staying active. Simple but regular exercise 30 minutes a day can keep muscles moving and pain at bay.
• Control weight gain by recognizing the changes in your metabolism and what your body needs. Focus on lean protein and plenty of fruits and vegetables for every meal.
• Wrinkles and dry skin are a simple fact as skin becomes thinner with age and loses its elasticity. You can help minimize these things by not smoking, using sunblock, avoiding soaking in a hot tub, and limiting consumption of dehydrating products, including caffeine and alcohol.

Products that give anti-aging a boost

The biggest growing trend in the coming years is fighting wrinkles and lines with injections and fillers. Both are ideal anti-aging products because they are FDA-approved and non-surgical.

• Anti-wrinkle injections – Some one million Americans choose this treatment every year to fight wrinkles and lines. Products include Botox, Dysport, Xeomin, and Jeuveau, all of which target muscles that can cause wrinkles and make skin look saggy. The treatment is customized so it can work for anyone and takes only 10 to 15 minutes.
• Dermal fillers – Also an injection, fillers bring volume to skin on the face or anywhere on the body that has been impacted by scarring or loss of skin elasticity. Hyaluronic acid fillers work to eliminate deep facial furrows, hollow cheeks, and thinning lips, and treatment can take as little as 30 minutes.
