antiaging
Wrinkle-fighting skin treatment
Antiaging describes products, treatments, or practices intended to slow, prevent, or reverse signs of aging—particularly visible ones like wrinkles, gray hair, and sagging skin: antiaging creams, antiaging supplements.
The term dominates beauty and wellness marketing, though scientific support for many antiaging claims remains thin.
Also spelled anti-aging.
