In Thailand, it has become more widely known as Anti-Aging Medicine or referred to by the same term, Anti-Aging
Getting to Know Anti-Aging Medicine Anti-Aging Medicine Anti-Aging Medicine is a medical science developed on the principles of prevention and living a healthy, quality life. Since some diseases cannot be cured once contracted, allowing health to deteriorate before seeking treatment may be too late. Therefore, preventing disease or delaying its onset as much as possible is the best approach. What we all know well is that as age increases, the body’s mechanisms naturally decline and deteriorate, causing changes in various functions. The efficiency of different body systems also declines, resulting in reduced chemical reactions and metabolic processes. When the body loses balance, illnesses tend to visit more frequently. Examples include chronic non-communicable diseases or NCDs (Non-Communicable Diseases) such as blood lipid disorders, abdominal obesity, hypertension, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and cancers. Anti-Aging Medicine uses health system examinations that do not only focus on disease symptoms but also deeply analyze hormone levels, vitamins, and minerals in the body through molecular laboratory tests. This is to provide personalized health care by managing risk factors from genetics, environment, or lifestyle behaviors to reduce disease tendencies and address risks precisely.
“A balanced life begins with balanced hormones.”
TIP >>> Hormone levels in the body peak between ages 20-25. After that, they gradually decline. By the late 30s to early 40s, all hormone levels decrease, causing the body to function differently, health to decline, and physical and mental changes to occur. Having balanced hormone levels in the body can lead to good health. Therefore, hormones are crucial in connecting the functions of various body parts to work normally. Important hormones include testosterone, melatonin, serotonin, estrogen, and others. These are essential chemicals necessary for body functions, traveling through the bloodstream to support growth, slow aging, metabolism, and reproduction. Aging is a syndrome resulting from the deficiency of multiple hormones. What we should know is that each person lacks different hormones, so symptoms vary depending on the type and amount of hormone reduction.
TIP >>> In treatment, if hormone levels can be maintained at youthful levels, health will remain strong and the appearance fresh. Therefore, the added benefit of hormone adjustment is not only good health and quality of life but also a younger-looking face and skin.
