Abstract: Background. Aging is a complex biological process of gradual metabolic, structural and functional changes in the body, which can lead to a decline in physical and mental functions, as well as to the development of diseases. At the moment, the issue of anti-aging remains relevant, given the steady increase in life expectancy and the growing proportion of the elderly population, which is observed practically worldwide. Biologically active supplements containing components used as part of complex therapy for the correction and prevention of signs of premature skin aging are becoming increasingly popular. Aims. To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of taking the dietary supplement VITABEAUTY® Hyaluronic Acid + Resveratrol on the functional parameters of facial skin. Methods. A simple blind placebo-controlled cross-over study was conducted, involving 40 female patients over 18 years old with signs of aging. The observation was carried out for 10 weeks. The dietary supplement and placebo were taken according to the following scheme: during the first 4 weeks of the study patients received placebo, then the subjects took VITABEAUTY® Hyaluronic Acid + Resveratrol for the next 6 weeks. Objective assessment of skin condition was carried out in 4 and 10 weeks after the beginning of the study in strictly fixed areas of the forehead and cheek. The patients’ subjective evaluation of the effectiveness of the supplement VITABEAUTY® Hyaluronic Acid + Resveratrol also was carried out. Results. Statistically significant improvement of skin moisture and wrinkle depth was registered at the end of the study at patiens receiving VITABEAUTY® Hyaluronic Acid + Resveratrol. 95% of the subjects evaluated the result of taking the dietary supplement as good and satisfactory. Conclusion. The obtained results allow us to recommend the dietary supplement VITABEAUTY® Hyaluronic Acid + Resveratrol for regular intake to prevent and/or control the initial signs of skin aging.
