Advancing the Future of Longevity Medicine- Dr. Pearlman shares top trends and leading innovations
Dr. Pearlman reveals the most innovative treatments and six hottest trends in Longevity Medicine, from DNA driven medicine to AI powered healthcare solutions.
Hormones, ageing and skinspan
Skinspan refers to the years of life during which skin remains healthy, youthful and attractive and is influenced by genetic, metabolic and lifestyle factors. While ultraviolet (UV) exposure is a potent environmental driver of skin ageing, our hormones play a vital role in determining skin health and appearance.
The Female Longevity Factor
Women are afforded a unique set of biological advantages at birth favouring longevity. Throughout their lifetime however, offsetting these factors are susceptibilites that can induce more rapid aging than their male counterparts. The Female Longevity Factor is a novel concept coined by the author to refer to these biological traits and lifetime risks.
Estrogen and Longevity
The new science of aging is rapidly expanding. Longevity experts predict that we will have the tools to achieve human immortality within our lifetime. By harnessing the retained ability of our tissues to repair and regenerate, longevity factors are being developed to reprogram aged tissues to a more youthful version of itself. Aging is no longer considered inevitable but rather a system problem that can be reprogrammed like out-of-date software.
Menopause and the Skin
Rapid skin aging occurs during menopause, as the hypoestrogenemic state is marked by increased skin wrinkling, laxity, dryness, and vascularity.

Sunscreen update: What you need to know to protect your skin this summer
Imagine a gorgeous beach bathed in the orange heat of the sun on a hot summer day. The waves are crashing, the margaritas are flowing and you and your new Marc Jacobs bathing suit look amazing in the sand. What you don’t see is the damage those rays of sun are doing to your skin, and how sunscreen can prevent serious health risks associated with sunburns. We spoke with Dr. Pearlman—women’s health expert at Pearl Rejuvenation Medical Vitality Clinic in Toronto—and Charmaine Cooper from Dermalogica for their expert tips on all things sunscreen and sun damage.
Menopause and the Skin
Of all the hormones affecting the skin, estrogens are perhaps the most influential. Estrogens have widespread proteo-genomic effects on the skin’s structure and function. Estrogen binds both cellular and nuclear receptors and modulates epidermal keratino cytes, dermal fibroblasts, melanocytes, and skin appendages, including hair follicles and sebaceous glands.

WHY IS MY SCALP SO ITCHY? Maybe it’s reminding you to take note of your body
