Anti-aging medicine is a new specialty that focuses on medical and scientific interventions to slow suspend and in some cases even reverse the biologic deterioration and diseases of the body. The long-term goal is to generate a measurable improvement in each patient's biologic age. That includes improvements in skin elasticity and moisture, mental speed and clarity, general mood and energy levels; enhanced sexual function; heightened aerobic capacity; increased immune function and wound healing capacity; remodelling of musculature and reduced body fat. A biomarker analysis, along with lifestyle, fitness and family history, combine to determine an individual's biologic or physiologic age. The physicians then formulate a customized and comprehensive program of targeted vitamin, nutrient, hormone and drug therapies for that individual.
