The state of the art in anti-aging: plant-based phytochemicals for skin care by Merve Tomas, Deniz Günal-Köroğlu, Senem Kamiloglu, Tugba Ozdal, Esra Capanoglu

“…Abstract Phytochemicals help mitigate skin aging by scavenging free radicals, modulating key enzymatic pathways, and promoting the skin’s structural integrity. Carotenoids, vitamins, essential fatty acids, and phenolic compounds work by acting as antioxidants, inhibiting enzymes like hyaluronidase, collagenase, and elastase, which degrade skin structure, and reducing levels of inflammatory markers (IL-6, IL-8, etc.) and matrix metalloproteinases (MMP-1, MMP-2) linked to aging. …”
