So many different kinds of treatments and creams are available to prevent and reduce facial wrinkles! What is the best anti wrinkle cream? There are facials, regular moisturizers, chemical peels, creams with fruits and vegetables in them (such as avocados), keratin based… you name it! People on the internet are making unbelievable claims about their success getting rid of wrinkles using this cream or that.

The number of these wrinkle cream companies that are frauds is amazing: a whopping 90%! Many of them are facing lawsuits from inaccurate labeling of their products’ ingredients, or for misleading advertising. Perhaps you have even been duped by one of these bogus companies! Now, not all of the products are completely worthless; while some don’t work at all, some DO have a slight anti-aging effect and mild wrinkle removal properties, but are nowhere near worth their price.

So many of the special ingredients that are in wrinkle creams don’t penetrate the skin. They have little benefit because their molecular weight is too high. Among these are animal skin derived ingredients such as cross-linked elastin and procollagen. The quality of these materials often can no even be guaranteed, as they are procured from unreliable third parties!

When you factor in that some of these companies are run out of basements, garages or residential homes, it really makes you start to think. Many of the companies don’t have adequate staff. They usually have a refund policy, but most of them don’t have employees to deal with complaints or refunds! That’s why you often are unable to contact a company for a refund. Some of the companies don’t have email support or a website.

Most of the bigger brand anti aging creams are really nothing but quick-fixes! Often the creams are made in Asian countries such as China, and then US companies import the stuff, re-package it and then it is marketed at inflated prices.

Take care when researching and purchasing a wrinkle cream!
