Dr. Carol Eisenstat, board-certified physician and founder of Line Eraser MD, was recently featured in Vogue in an article exploring the best anti-aging serums and the ingredients dermatology and aesthetics professionals look for when recommending skincare.
What Makes an Anti-Aging Serum Worth Using?
In the Vogue feature, Dr. Eisenstat emphasized a simple but important point: the best serum is one a patient will actually use consistently and one that has credible science behind it.
When recommending skincare products, she looks for formulas supported by clinical data, ingredients with a clear mechanism of action, and options that fit naturally into a patient’s everyday routine. In other words, the best product is not necessarily the trendiest or most expensive one. It is the one that makes sense for the patient’s skin and can realistically become part of a long-term regimen.
Which Ingredients Are Getting Attention Right Now?
The article highlights several categories of anti-aging ingredients and innovations that continue to shape modern skincare.
Dr. Eisenstat noted that newer technologies such as growth factors and exosomes are especially interesting for improving texture, firmness, and recovery after in-office treatments. At the same time, classic ingredients still matter. Retinoids remain a key part of many anti-aging routines, while gentle exfoliating acids can help improve tone and smoothness. Barrier-supportive and hydration-focused serums also continue to be valuable for patients who want healthier, more resilient skin.
Skincare and In-Office Treatments Often Work Best Together
A good serum can support skin quality, but topical skincare is only one part of a comprehensive skin-health plan. For patients who want to address concerns such as texture, pigment, fine lines, or visible signs of aging more meaningfully, skincare often works best when paired with professional treatment.
