Either you’re for wrinkles or anti-wrinkles. It’s a fine line that influences your point-of-view. To gain a better understanding of the ever-growing anti-wrinkle perspective, I contacted Neutrogena…

Dear Skin Specialists:

I see that Neutrogena makes Deep Wrinkle Anti-Wrinkle Serum. My wife is starting to feel a little wrinkly and often talks about stuff like Botox and Ritalin. I’m not a big fan of injecting needles containing face filler into one’s puss. I prefer a natural cream or adjusting the lighting with dimmers.

How deep does your Deep Anti-Wrinkle Serum penetrate? I’m sure you don’t do any testing on animals, but if you did, would it work on a Pug or a Shar-Pei?

My main concern is that your product is Anti-Wrinkle and not After-Wrinkle. Is it too late for a woman to unwrinkle? I have heard of ironing out some wrinkles, but that sounds really painful. What do you suggest?

Wrinkles get under my wife’s skin!

The Neutrogena Information Center responded with:

Thank you for contacting Neutrogena®. It is always important to hear from our consumers, and we appreciate the time you have taken to contact us.

With regard to your recent inquiry, this intensive serum, designed with a potent concentration of Retinol plus Anti-Oxidant Multi-Vitamins, absorbs quickly into the skin’s surface, helping accelerate cell turnover. As newer, younger cells push to the surface, wrinkles visibly fill and smooth out to look less noticeable. Within weeks, you will see noticeable improvements even to the wrinkles you’ve found most difficult to treat in the past. Works quickly to fill the look of deep wrinkles, diminish the appearance of age spots and other signs of photo-damage. Restores softness, smoothness and a healthier, more youthful texture.

This product is not intended for use on animals.

We hope this information has been helpful to you.

Should you have any comments or questions in the future, please feel free to contact us via our website, www.neutrogena.com, or by calling (phone number and hours of operation followed).

Final Thoughts: Lots of people are wrinkling up and perhaps anti-wrinkle products such as this can help. There are also many women who see wrinkles men can’t see. I know my wife does, which means that either her mirror is defective or one of us needs a new Optometrist. It is natural to discover wrinkles in time and here’s why. It’s also natural to wonder how products you use work. When you’re not sure, try smoothing out any issues first and Write The Company.
