With age, the dynamic interaction between skin cells and the supporting fibers in the skin decreases. The network that gives strength and elasticity to the skin weakens. It leads to a reduction in the mechanical properties of the skin, and visual signs of aging such as wrinkles and loss of elasticity and firmness. These are the processes we aim to counteract when we develop anti-ageing skin care.

Heredity and age are the most important reasons why we get wrinkles, while smoking, UV rays and air pollution are the important factors that contribute to wrinkles developing prematurely.
So what is called premature ageing.

In premature ageing, free radicals exert harmful oxidation on healthy cells and other structures in the skin. These oxidative processes are called oxidative stress.
Oxidative stress plays a crucial role in skin aging.

The skin's antioxidative properties are important defense mechanisms to reduce the consequences of oxidative stress. External causes of oxidative stress are often more powerful than the skin's antioxidative defenses can handle. This causes premature ageing. This means that you get signs of aging and impaired function in the skin faster than the body's own processes would indicate.

Our skin care products have been developed based on a philosophy that they should be effective in all layers of the skin. Multiple active substances and high concentrations of vitamins, antioxidants and essential fatty acids work in synergy for better results and a wider spectrum of effects.

The skin should become stronger, healthier, and old damage repaired and new damage prevented at the same time.

✅Why do we test?

Clinical studies are your and our guarantee that the products' effect and tolerability have been examined and found valid by independent dermatologists. It provides a large degree of certainty that the results are valid.

We do not test on animals.

In clinical studies on Dr.Ankerstjerne products, the results are based on objective and quantifiable measurements carried out by independent dermatologists, and not self-reported effects.

We do not test on animals.

Clinical studies on Dr.Ankerstjerne products have been carried out by independent dermatologists in a third-party testing laboratory in Poland.

The testers have received the product in a white sample tube without a logo or name, so they do not know which product or skincare brand they are testing.

The clinical studies have different setups depending on what is being investigated. In the long-term studies, the products are used as the only skin care product, morning and evening, daily for 6-8 weeks.

The results have been obtained by examining the test subjects' skin with, among other things, advanced 3D skin scanners and other measuring instruments, before and after the test period. No placebo was used. Instead, the results in the effect studies have been obtained by comparing them with the skin care routine that the test subjects used before.
