He looked older when he was younger since he was skinnier.

It’s all filters! Camera filters! It’s all fakeeee!

Yeah, but you can’t say that about Dr. Fahy though. I’ve seen him in a crowd of people, and he does look that way (meaning no filtering). So, what do you think of him?

#27

nah not with you on that one. Way older than 30’s. mid 40’s at best. but we shouldn’t be talking about him because there is not much from him that we can copy and benefit from. So, ignore this dude.

I said nothing of him. Most likely legit and don’t see him using enhancing filters. He’s a researcher. The blond vegan dude is a complete fraud though and it’s obvious the moment you google it.

It’s not a secret, but he still looks younger than his age.

#30

Maybe he’s spent a little time in the freezer :cold_face: :laughing:
He has done some work on vitrification agents for cryogenic suspension after all.

Guys, I can’t avoid a smile after reading your interaction. This is really a conversation among dudes. Any woman would remind you that you live in an age where beautician clinics all around inject hialuronic acyd and botox on people’s faces - and yes, men too! Everybody seems to be doing it nowadays, and if you work with your face - actors, TV people, infouencers, etc., its almost mandatory as the peer pressure is huge.

I know a lot if people, both men and women, that look younger now (no rinkles or saggy skin on their faces) on their fifties and sixties than 10/20 years ago. Another thing they all seem to have in common is that their faces are now much rounder now, with big chicks, despite they keeping their normal weight and elegant body.

Just saying… :wink:

Happy new year, everyone!

Men tend to be very naive about that. Maybe they don’t want to see how the sausage is cooked so they can just enjoy the final results in their mates — dunno. But obviously that vegan influencer looked older than his age at 53 and something completely different at 63 so either fillers galore plus face lift plus upper and lower bleph plus Botox plus prf treatments plus camera filters on top of all that or… he invented a time machine. I see fully grown men here wanting to be believe the latter.

Yes, I have to admit that most guys are pretty clueless in the area of cosmetic dermatology.

Mostly we are in the dark ages when it comes to skin care too. Using daily sun protection is generally considered a radical and unreasonable intervention for most guys.

Greg Fahy probably uses sunscreen and Retin A, and therefore looks younger than 98% of other males his age. Its not rocket science. (But I truthfully have no idea what he does).

What to do if your face looks much younger than your neck? maybe the result of wearing a T-shirt most of the time?

I think many people put sun screen on their face, but forget about their neck. And yes, a collarless shirt will make sun exposure to the neck even worse.

Solution: More sunscreen, and there are all sorts of cosmetic dermatology treatments for the neck - as women will tell you. I haven’t looked into them, but this site allows you to search on them and get costing / ratings on the therapy, etc.: Explore Plastic Surgery, Aesthetic & Dental Procedures - RealSelf

Million dollar question even for women who are into aggressive skincare. Sunscreen use probably explains much of it but that piece of info can only help with prevention, not intervention once you have the problem. Neck skin is thinner too than facial skin so loses elasticity first. To correct the problem once you have it I’d invest into radiofrequency microneedling every 4 weeks, regular microneedling more often, plasma fibroblast treatments, and tixel (at least four treatments) — plus tretinol 0.1% on the regular. I’ve had pretty good results just from radiofrequency microneedling alone; posted before and after pictures somewhere on this site in another thread. These are all treatments that will set your wallet back quite a bit if pursued at a clinic though so I’ve chosen the DIY route but that’s not for everyone.

I remember watching an interview with him a few years ago where he said he takes Selegiline and Centrophenoxine.

He is currently enrolled in his own TRIIM X trial as well which means he’s on HGH. Metformin, DHEA, D3, and Zinc.

Are you sure that these are the TRIIM X substances or it is just your gues, and also is there anything else that people on TRIIM X are doing (on top of above).

#39

My understanding is the TRIIM X trial uses the same things the TRIIM trial did. Someone correct me if I’m wrong though.

My understanding is the TRIIM X trial uses the same things the TRIIM trial did.

I was also curious about this and came to the same conclusion, as follows.

This May 2021 video is an update by Dr. Fahy on the TRIIM-X trial. Starting at about 26:22, he describes the TRIIM-X trial as an effort to reproduce the results of TRIIM, but with an expanded cohort. I didn’t notice any mention of different interventions.

Per https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT04375657, the only difference in treatment in TRIIM-X between experiment and (active) control is rhGH. Both groups get metformin and DHEA, but there’s no mention of either D3 or zinc.

On the other hand, the TRIIM paper mentions that all participants additionally received D3 and zinc (there was no control group).

A Google search turns up this blog post about the above-mentioned video update on TRIIM-X, in which the author claims that Dr. Fahy confirmed in a private communication that both D3 and zinc “are still there”.

I’d also like to add like Steve Horvath decided to try it on his own (not part of the study) but without HGH, and he hasn’t gotten the same results as the people in the study who are using HGH.

I wouldn’t sleep on HGH. There’s really strong evidence it’s great for things like heart failure if there’s an IGF1 deficiency. It’s just that there is a negative stigma surrounding it, unfortunately.
