"SkinCeuticals A.G.E. Interrupter helps slow down the glycation process and correct severe signs of intrinsic aging in mature skin."
SkinCeuticals A.G.E. Interrupter is one of the first topical products marketed as capable of inhibiting and reversing intrinsic (non-environmental, predominantly UV-induced) aging by slowing the glycation processes which erode skin's elasticity and firmness.
"A.G.E." refers to "advanced glycation end-products."
SkinCeuticals A.G.E. Interrupter contains 4% blueberry extract to:
It also features Pro-Xylane to "rebuild skin's support structure" by "consolidating the junction between skin cells" for a plumping effect, and phytosphingosine which "protects skin's barrier".
In combination, these ingredients are said to "combine to minimize the discomfort associated with intrinsic aging."

A.G.E. Interrupter is specifically formulated to improve the creping, thinning appearance of mature skin caused by intrinsic or internal aging processes such as glycation.
Glycation occurs when excess glucose molecules stick to collagen and elastin fibers, eventually binding them together and leading to the formation of Advanced Glycation End-products (A.G.E.).
Glycated collagen and elastin fibers lose the ability to function normally, and the body cannot break them down and replace them, which leads to severe wrinkling of the skin.
A.G.E. Interrupter is a unique treatment formulated with 4% blueberry extract, 30% Pro-Xylane™, and 0.2% phytosphingosine to help prevent the glycation process and correct severe signs of intrinsic aging in mature skin.
