Understanding the Two Types of Skin Aging
Skin aging can be divided into two main categories:
- Chronological (Intrinsic) Aging: This type of aging is the result of metabolic and genetic processes, to which are added hormonal changes related to age. This leads to a gradual atrophy of the dermis, hypodermis and support structures, on which the continuous effect of the force of gravity acts.
- Extrinsic Aging: This type of aging is mainly caused by prolonged exposure to solar radiation, causing chronic oxidative stress known as photoaging. Other environmental factors, such as smog, fine dust, wind and humidity, along with lifestyle behaviors such as smoking, an unbalanced diet, stress and lack of sleep, can further contribute.

There are notable differences between these two types of aging.
Chronoaging:
The skin appears thin, atrophic and pale. This type of aging involves not only the skin, but also changes in the skin's support structures, such as bone, adipose and muscle tissue. Ètas Viso's TimeBlock Factor® technology can help combat mature and dry skin, affected by a lack of nourishment.
Photoaging:
The skin appears thickened, rough and has fine wrinkles, discolouration and a yellowish colour. To address this type of aging, Cosmetici Magistrali offers the smoothing Age Reset action of Ètas Tempo, known as RetinSphere®.
To prevent, improve or counteract the signs of skin aging, it is essential to intervene effectively on the hydration of the various layers of the skin, restoring elasticity and protecting against damage caused by free radicals.
Ètas Face - TimeBlock Factor®:
This product uses the TimeBlock Factor® anti-aging complex, known for its regenerating, anti-wrinkle, elasticising and antioxidant actions. With Ètas Viso, the skin appears more compact, uniform with a significant reduction of wrinkles.
Ètas Tempo - RetinSphere®
This is a patented technology that releases the actives in a controlled manner over time. Its cell renewal action helps to counteract the formation of new wrinkles and improve existing ones. By constantly using Ètas Tempo, the skin becomes more compact, uniform and improves its texture.
