What is Elastiderm?

We are all searching for the right wrinkle cream.  We have searched or used numerous creams to no avail.  Finding the right wrinkle cream is not an easy task.  We get sucked up in believing many companies advertising so we buy it and then find it does not do anything but make us poorer.  With all the new technology today involving aging and skin care there are some great wrinkle creams on the market.  We just need to eliminate all those who are only out to make a buck and not really helping people look younger.

Elastiderm, made by Obagi,  is a wrinkle cream that comes in 3 products.  They are a day cream for your eyes, a night cream for your eyes and a neck and chest cream.  These are the most sensitive areas of your body and seem to show aging signs first.  They are designed to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes and chest.  They say it will strengthen surfaces, brightens and firms.  They claim it is ideal for mature, damaged and aging skin.  They say it will guarantee noticeable results.  Elastiderm is designed to jump start the collagen and elastin production in the sensitive skin around the eyes and chest.

Some of the key ingredients are:

Final Thoughts

Elastiderm is a anti-aging product or products that can only be had by a prescription by a health care provider.  So it is not has easy to obtain which is a negative.  Just because it you can only get these wrinkle creams by prescription does not necessarily mean that they are better than those found over the counter.  Elastiderm says it is clinically proven to restore elasticity in sun damaged aging skin by 46% in 9 weeks.  In 16% of the people there was a decrease in the number of wrinkles restoring elasticity and collagen after 9 weeks.  Now those statistics sound great but it was impossible to find the study where it came from.  Many companies claim that “studies” have proven their wrinkles creams effective but these studies are sometimes not substantiated.  Like this one.  There are mixed reviews on this wrinkle cream.  Some say they saw no sign of eliminating wrinkles.  It is an expensive cream and you want it to work.  Instead,  I would first look at this website and see the list of top rated wrinkle creams and see if you should try one of these.
