Abstract
New products for rejuvenation of the skin are increasingly categorized as c osmeceuticals, with modest data available for evaluation of their efficacy. Products that appear promising include topical vitamin C and N6-furfurylad enenine. Retinoids and alpha hydroxyacid remain, however, the cornerstone o f a physician-directed skin program.
