Abstract

Introduction

Skin aging is a complex biological process driven by intrinsic factors, such as genetics and cellular metabolism, and extrinsic factors, including environmental stressors like UV radiation, pollution, and lifestyle choices. These factors result in visible signs of aging, such as wrinkles, reduced skin elasticity, and pigmentation.

Objective

This review presents the recent findings on phytoextracts as natural anti-aging agents, highlighting their bioactive compounds, mechanisms of action, and applications in skin rejuvenation.

Methods

A comprehensive literature search was conducted in databases including Scopus, PubMed, and Web of Science, focusing on articles published from 2000 to 2023. Search terms such as “phytoextracts and skin aging,” “natural antioxidants and collagen synthesis,” and “bioactive compounds and skin rejuvenation” were used. Inclusion criteria involved peer-reviewed studies on phytoextracts with experimental evidence of anti-aging effects, focusing on human and models. Exclusion criteria included non-English articles, review papers without experimental data, and studies unrelated to skin aging. Recent research articles focusing on skin aging mechanisms and the efficacy of phytoextracts were identified. Particular attention was given to the antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and collagen-boosting properties of phytoextracts.

Results

This study provides novel insights into the mechanisms through which phytoextracts counteract oxidative stress, inflammation, and extracellular matrix degradation. Notable examples include the role of resveratrol in activating longevity genes, curcumin in reducing UV-induced damage, and ginseng in improving skin elasticity. These compounds were found to exhibit potent anti-aging mechanisms through their antioxidant activity and collagen-boosting effects. Advanced delivery technologies, such as nanocarriers, enhance the efficacy of these bioactives.

Conclusion

Phytoextracts demonstrate significant potential in combating skin aging by reducing oxidative stress and inflammation, and enhancing collagen production. While the results are promising, further clinical studies are required to validate their long-term efficacy and safety in skin aging management.
