Aging in America had become more and more of a hot topic
as the media seems to put greater emphasis and value on
our youth culture. Many might describe what has happened
in our country, is a nation that has become very youth obsessed.
In doing so, we have seemingly placed less and less value
on those who pass a certain age point.
We often currently hear people mocking all the signs
of aging. Rather than viewing the aging process as a natural
part of life to be celebrated, we now collectively seem
to perceive aging as a disease that is to be cured somehow.
The fact is more aging American workers feel vulnerable
to their younger competition. This is pushing more of
the aging workforce into the offices of dermatologists
and plastic surgeons looking to freshen up their appearance
and turn back the hands of time. This is not just for
women, but for men as well. The American Academy of Cosmetic
Surgery says that males now make up 21% of their current
client base. That’s up 3% in just the past 3 years.
Many of these men and women justify their reasoning with
wanting to stay competitive in the job market.
No demographic has poured more money into this industry,
than the Baby Boomers. The Baby Boomers have driven many
great economical trends throughout the past 40 years.
First it was the Ford Mustang of 60’s and 70’s.
In the early 80’s, it was the mini-van and then
the microwave.
Now, instead buying microwave technology for food these
days, many Boomers are lining up to microwave their skin
to a tighter and more youthful appearance. New advances
in laser technology have made it much easier to heat up
and lift up that sagging skin.
In fact, the skincare technology is continuously making
tremendous strides in it’s advancements to keep
Boomers and all people looking younger. Most attention
in the media really has been focused on the skin however.
Many forget the hair and the effect that aging can have
on the hair follicles.
What good is a youthful looking face, if the hair on
top of the face looks very aged. Aged Boomer men and women
might even try to mask aged hair with wigs or toupees
that don’t really look age appropriate. This perhaps
can come from a need to overcompensate for the hair that
is starting to disappear.
In 95% of these hair loss cases, the cause is DHT,
otherwise known as dihydrotestosterone. Keep in mind,
DHT has been found to be the leading cause of hair loss
for men and women of all ages. Revivogen, a dermatologist
formulated topical hair
loss treatment, takes some of the latest natural ingredients
found to effectively combat DHT, and puts them all into
one serum. When applying nature’s most potent anti-DHT
components regularly to the scalp, you can help maintain
the hair that you do have. You also stand a good chance
of bringing back the hair that you’ve lost from
as far back as 3 years ago.
The best part of all of this, is that you are bringing
back and nurturing your own hair to maintain a vibrant
and healthy look. Because it is your own hair, it won’t
look fake or overly exaggerated. Your youthful hair can
also match your youthful attitude that always comes from
looking as good as you feel.
Remember however, that feeling is something that has
to start from within and has to be independent of society’s
attitude towards you. You are more than a number, so don’t
let your value be based upon that. This is something that
Baby Boomers and people of all ages can relate to.
