Is Progeline Really The Ultimate Skin Repair Miracle Product? We Weigh In

I had been hearing a lot about the ingredient Progeline and how it may be the new “it” thing in anti-aging skincare. So I hopped online and ordered myself two products made with Progeline, a serum and a cream.

So what is Progeline? It’s a trade name for an ingredient in science called trifluoroacetyl-tripeptide-2, a powerful peptide that is said to help the skin modulate progerin. Progerin is one of the proteins in the body that is responsible for the cell damage that can cause signs of aging like sagging skin, loss of elasticity, fine lines and wrinkles.

So why haven’t we heard of this before? Well as it turns out, the only people who have to worry about the devastating effects of progerin are people who have a rare syndrome called Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome. If you do not have that syndrome or are not at an extremely advanced age, then your cells should not have this reaction to progerin. Meaning, short story- Progeline won’t help you.

I’ve been using these products for weeks now in order to give you guys my fair, unbiased review. I have to say, the formulas and consistency of both the serum and the cream were nice and absorbed well into my skin. No stickiness, no weird fragrances, no oily texture — they were high-quality and moisturizing.

Did I see an amazing reduction in my fine lines and wrinkles? Or my loose skin? Unfortunately, no. These products did little more than moisturize and I could find similarly hydrating serums and creams at a much lower price point.

Bottom line, don’t fall for the hype of the newest thing and always do your research. If your aging skin is bothering you, see a dermatologist to get personally chosen recommendations for your particular skin concerns. Or look into fillers or dermatologic procedures and treatments that get REAL results. If you’re looking to be preventative, use sunscreen every day and don’t go to bed with makeup on. Find a good moisturizer or serum with Vitamin C, hyaluronic acid and or retinol. Always research the science behind what you put onto and into your body!
