A breakthrough study by Harvard-backed scientists in the United States of America earlier this year had discovered – an ageing clock capable of accelerating and potentially reversing the ageing process. While the study was carried out on mice, its findings mark a significant milestone in unraveling the mechanisms behind cellular ageing.
The study has sparked worldwide interest due to its implications on human health and longevity. By uncovering the factors that contribute to cellular ageing, the researchers have laid the foundation for exploring strategies to slow down or even reverse this natural process.
Dubai based, leading aesthetic practitioner Dr. Khan who is the Medical Director at Drypskin Clinic said, “The findings of this remarkable study bring us closer to understanding the intricate mechanisms of ageing at a cellular level. This knowledge opens up exciting possibilities for developing innovative interventions to improve the quality of life as we age.”

Dr. Khan stressed, “The insights gained from this research have the potential to revolutionize the way we approach ageing. By targeting specific cellular processes, we may be able to develop therapies that slow down the ageing clock and rejuvenate the skin, helping individuals look and feel younger.”
