Topical Rapamycin: How It Works
Manage episode 412857430 series 2997791
Is rapamycin the secret to youthful skin?
In this week’s episode, Dr. Charles Mok delves into the ins and outs of topical rapamycin, also known as sirolimus cream, and how it promotes youthful skin. Rapamycin pills are FDA-approved for certain conditions, and their topical forms are used to suppress the growth of tumors.
In a split-body study conducted by Drexel University, which used a very weak strength of rapamycin cream to examine signs of aging on the skin, the treated side produced younger-looking skin with fewer wrinkles, smaller pores, and less damage to the elastin.
Another remarkable benefit of sirolimus cream is its ability to lessen senescent or zombie cells, which are cells that have stopped dividing and replicating and can lead to organ dysfunction and organ failure.
