Dr. Denese |
 |
Introduction & Overview |
Dr. Adrienne Denese, M.D. Ph.D. is the founder of the Manhattan Anti-Aging Clinic, and has supposedly “helped thousands of women” fight the effects of aging. She claims to use clinically proven methods that are “dramatically different” from conventional cosmetic companies.
She developed the website as a forum to share her message about skin care with other women, and her products may be purchased from the website as well. We will take a close look at the formulas created by Dr. Denese and the website overall to see how beneficial they may be for women seeking an anti-aging solution.

| Products at a Glance |
Dr. Denese has created cleansers, toners, exfoliators, serums to stimulate the skin, serums to hydrate the hands, body and eye areas, anti-wrinkle creams, formulas to protect the skin from ultra-violet rays and “MediSpa Home Treatments”, so that women may give themselves facial peels and microdermabrasions at home. We will look more closely below.

| Products in Focus |
According to the website, the products are designed to be used together as they all contain ingredients that are thought to have synergistic effects. Women interested in these products may find an item to assist in every step of the skin care process, from cleansing to moisturizing at night, plus the weekly intensive treatments. And, Dr. Denese has also developed several cosmetics products for those interested in age-defying makeup.
We are interested in the Night Recovery Cream, a product intended to soften the appearance of lines and wrinkles overnight. The product contains several antioxidants, such as Grape Seed Extract, Alpha Lipoic Acid and Vitamins A, C & E.
Alpha Lipoic Acid is an antioxidant contained in many skincare products; it is thought to have a synergistic effect when combined with certain other ingredients and may renew Vitamin E.

| Website |
The Dr. Denese website posts a biography of Dr. Denese, the list of skin care products that she has developed and books and videos that she has created. Additionally, there is a page devoted to skin care regimens and contact information for those who wish to have a question answered by the doctor.
One thing we do not see on this site is a page devoted to customer testimonials. We like to see what others have said about a product or company, because we feel it gives us greater insight into the formula’s actions or the customer service provided by the company. Generally, we have found that if a product truly works, people are eager to let the company know.

| Final Thoughts |
Women seeking age-defying products that have been developed from a scientific point of view may be interested in the product line from Dr. Denese. She is a specialist in anti-aging who has supposedly assisted thousands of women, though curiously, no testimonials are posted on the website. As mentioned, the products are intended to be used with one another, so those who do not wish to invest in a new product line may not get the same benefits from just one or two products.
A number of anti-aging products are currently on the market that contain effective ingredients for improving the skin, and many of these have also been clinically proven to be effective. We like formulas that contain Matrixyl 3000® to stimulate Collagen production, since Collagen levels naturally deplete with time. We suggest looking for products from companies that offer money-back guarantees for best results.
