Add Rapamycin to Your Skincare Routine!

Dr. Charles Mok explains topical rapamycin for aging skin with wrinkles and sun damage, not as a replacement for sunscreen and retinol but as an addition when you want reversal, not prevention. It won't help young, healthy skin.

There's further studies looking at oral rapamycin to slow down or reverse aging. We don't really know the answers to that yet. But this is something that is available now in addition to your regular skin care. So I wouldn't say do this instead of sunblock or instead of topical vitamin C or instead of topical retinol, which is a vitamin A, I'd use this as an adjunct for somebody whose age and they want to reverse it. Another thing that I think that's important to point out, it probably does nothing for young, healthy skin because young healthy skin does not have much senescent cells. So once we've gone past the point of resilience, and resilience is where we can spring back natur on our own, once we start getting wrinkles and start getting lost elasticity or skin, start getting sun damage, then we lost resilience, and that's when this might be more appropriate. But it is not preventative in the way that vitamin C or retinol or sunblock or glycolics are. So this is where somebody's got skin damage that has already has damage or trying to reverse things.
