What is ageLOC Technology?
ageLOC is Nu Skin's proprietary anti-aging technology platform, developed through over $500 million in R&D in collaboration with Purdue University, Stanford University, and LifeGen Technologies. ageLOC technology identifies and targets Youth Gene Clusters (YGCs) — specific groups of genes that regulate cellular energy, repair, and renewal. As we age, the expression of these gene clusters shifts unfavorably; ageLOC formulations are designed to support more youthful gene expression patterns.
In the context of Dermatic Effects, ageLOC technology is applied to body skin — addressing the same cellular aging mechanisms that drive loss of firmness, elasticity, and skin quality on the arms, legs, abdomen, and décolleté. Learn more: What is ageLOC Technology?
What Causes Body Skin to Age?
Body skin ages through the same intrinsic and extrinsic mechanisms as facial skin, but is often neglected in anti-aging routines:
- Collagen and elastin decline: ~1% collagen loss per year from age 20 leads to loss of firmness and elasticity on the body, particularly visible on the abdomen, thighs, and upper arms
- Cellulite: Caused by fat deposits pushing through the connective tissue beneath the skin. Hormonal changes, reduced circulation, and declining skin elasticity all contribute to its appearance
- Crepey skin: Thinning of the dermis combined with reduced collagen and elastin causes skin to take on a crepe-paper texture, most commonly on the inner arms, knees, and décolleté
- Cell turnover slowdown: From 28 days in your 20s to 45–60 days by your 50s — dead skin cells accumulate, causing dullness and rough texture on the body
- Gene expression changes: Youth Gene Clusters shift toward less youthful patterns, reducing the skin's ability to repair and renew itself efficiently
How to Use ageLOC Dermatic Effects
- Step 1 — Polish (2–3x per week): Use the Dermatic Effects Polish in the shower to exfoliate and prepare skin for maximum absorption of subsequent treatments
- Step 2 — Serum (daily): Apply the Dermatic Effects Serum to areas of concern — abdomen, thighs, upper arms — and massage in until absorbed
- Step 3 — Body Contouring Lotion (daily): Apply the Body Contouring Lotion over the serum or alone as your daily body moisturizer, massaging in circular motions until fully absorbed
- Consistency: Results are cumulative — most users see meaningful improvement at 4–8 weeks of consistent daily use
