I’m looking for one that is non-comedigenic and also at least UPF 15 or higher.

Do I just apply it and leave it or do I need to wash it off after a certain period of time as I’ve been told you’re not supposed to leave cream on under the eyes.

his honour, except sit on his bum for decades and talk to rich people, talk into a microphone and write some kids books, im sure its not a hard thing to do
randomM - i have sat on bum and talked to people, i have talked in a microphone. not wrote a kids book yet, may get me an honor if i did

My essay is focused around treatment options available to Parkinson’s disease patients. In my essay I talk about drugs available, surgery methods, and future treatments such as gene therapy and stem cell transplants. I just need a catchy title but I’m drawing blanks :(

I am using Strivecten on my face and neck but see no real results. I am curious about what some of you think is a miracle cream. Drugstore items or department store potions. What works for you.

36 yrs. and starting to see the signs of small lines mainly on forehead, as well as some age spots and sun spots.

Have Parkinson’s symptoms and take lithium carbonate. These symptoms started about three months ago and I have been taking lithium for many years. Just have an idea this is the cause.

Any info about treatments, future cures you may have heard of and things that can help people cope with it and get their quality of life back? Thank you
F.A.O So Called Semi Pro Footballer (u wish) people like you sholdnt be allowed to communicate on here if you are only going to joke about what is actually a serious and depressing health condition. You are abusive and a time waster. How dare you joke about a condition that efects millions of people when all I am trying to do is gain information and help from people who actually give a damn!!!! I have reported you!

I am 29 years old. I want to start taking more care of my skin but do not know what avenue to take. Right now I use a day moisturizer that contains spf 45(Neutrogena healthy defense). I want to use something at night…what do you recommend?

I am wondering what works best for some, I don’t have wrinkles yet but I love to take a little sun in my face to give me that sun kissed glow but I don’t want to damage my skin. Self tanners never really give off the same sun kissed glow.

I’m 16 years old,and i have oily/acne prone skin,and i break out a lot,and i have sensitive skin.I heard that certain wrinkle creams/lotions have certain ingredients that can help acne,but i was wondering if it’s safe and ok?

Is it ok for me to use a wrinkle cream?
Which wrinkle cream/lotion should i use for my acne prone/oily skin that won’t dry out my skin completely?And that isn’t expensive?

Parkinson’s phenotypes appear in older age and the person has equal chance to have normal reproduction like usual people.

I’m doing a report on it for school and i have a lot of facts on it but im asking in case there is more i need to know. We have to write acting like were them so that we can see how it is in their shoes and then we have to the the diagnosis and treatments/coping with the disease.
Anyone have any help to give?

im 22 and would like to know when to start useing eye cream anti-wrinkle cream and such……….and any creams that works good?

my mother’s fingers tremors at rest and we went see a doctor but the doctor said that it has to tremor all the time to be a parkinson disease. but i just don’t feel good watching my mom’s finger tremors at times and not sure what to do to convince the doctor to examine her in more details?
( there was one time i saw her half body tremors while she stars at TV without any emotions…it only happened once but that just scares me and i really fear there is something wrong with her…)
the tremors happens here and there (not all the time) so when we saw the doctor it was not happening and the doctor said that it has to be all the time to be a parkinson…but i checked the internet that seems to say otherwise??? not sure if i understand the internet correctly?

From your personal experience, what anti-wrinkle creams work for real?
My mom’s been using Myokine from Vichy, but I don’t really see a difference. Does any anti-wrinkle cream work?

Garnier nutritioniste has an anti-wrinkle firming NIGHT cream which i was using under the eye until I bought the anti-wrinkle firming EYE cream. I liked the results I was getting by using the night cream under the eye instead of the eye cream.

Is the night cream safe for the delicate eye area especially after long term use?
They also have an anti-wrinkle firming MOISTURE cream with spf 15 sunscreen which I use in the day time.

Any general advise or experience with using any of these type of products?

Remember Muhammad Ali on the parkinson show
why did he call the white american ‘devil’

I am 29 years old and noticing a few wrinkles around my eyes. I am wondering if anyone knows of any good wrinkle creams that actually work, and your own experience using the cream. I don’t want to buy something that does nothing and I guess I’m looking to just smooth them out a little. I know I am young but I figured it’s never too soon to start. So if anyone has used an anti-wrinkle cream please let me know what kind and how it worked for you? Thanks in advance!

A 41 years old man with parkinson’s disease is admitted to the hospital after experiencing severe night mares and periods of confusion. during lucid periods, he is very disturbed by these manifestations. at other times, he believes that his wife is participating in a conspiracy to harm him. what assessments and intervention should you consider? Are hallucinations and paronia typical manifestations of parkinson’s disease? Might the client’s manifestations be related to treatment or to some cause other than parkinson’s disease?

I am 32 and starting to have fine lines around my eyes. Can someone please tell what is the best anti aging cream or serum?

I’m 25 now and lately I’ve been thinking about starting a nightly routine of anti wrinkle / anti aging cream. Is it too soon or better to start now than when I actually have wrinkles? Also, what’s the best product to use?

I am looking for an anti-wrinkle cream that I can use and that actually works. I’ve tried a few, paid lots of money and had no results. I would like a cream that not only is anti-wrinkle but smoothes the skin and diminishes the appearance of pores.

Preventation is the best cure right?
And I think Scarlatt Johannsen uses wrinkle cream and shes quite young,so do you think it’s okay to start using them NOW?

my mom found out she had Parkinson’s last year. Probably runs in families too I suppose. what would be the treatment or medications for this disease? please tell me if you know, it will be very appreciated.

Of course, all of the ads say they’re the best. I was wondering if there was a real woman out there who could help me that has had some actual success. I just turned 30 and am beginning to see the signs of wrinkles under my eyes. I want to make sure I am proactive and begin using a good anti-wrinkle/anti-aging cream while I’m young. Thanks!

I recently went to a local fish and chips restraunt for a lunch date. I order the fish special which contains pollack fish. After eating the fish Approximately 15-20 minutes after eating the fish I began to realize that my tremor had stopped. My lunch date spotted the change in the tremor. As well my slurred speech vanished. I then laid out a hand full of change on the table and picked up the coins normally with my hand that normally tremors. I have since repeated this same occurance 4-5 times with the same results. I also went to my nuerologist and ate the fish before him with the same results. The doctor is totally baffled. A 11 year PD sufferer such as myself should be experiencing negative results from the protein content not positive results. Could I have something other than Parkinson`s? I have had blood work and all levels including blood sugar are fine.

They must like to wriggle a bit more in bed

She’s 54 and her skin is really starting to sag and wrinkle a lot. She has used an SPF 50 sunscreen as her facial moisturizer for YEARS. I have been researching some anti-wrinkle moisturizers and think I found one I want her to try. How do I tell her this without offending her?

i have ugly lines on my neck. will anti wrinkle cream work? which brands?

I am doing a biology research assignment and I’m wondering what other types of diseases such as Parkinson’s disease, is hoping to be cured through the use of embryonic stem cell treatments. I understand that some people are against this method and all but this is just for a school research assignment :)

Any personal experiences are welcome or general knowledge is fine too.

Thanks a lot!

Very badly wounded in fighting for this country….Very badly let down by the POLITICIANS who sent him…..Nothing new there then !!

I’m 27, and I noticed that in the last year the amout of wrinkles on my face has risen significantly. So I’m looking for an anti-ageing, anti-wrinkle cream that is worth the money. I saw Mencode online for about £5 including P&P.

I’ve never seen anyone that young shake so badly from Parkinson’s. If they’re real…boy GOD BLESS HIM!
My dad had parkinson’s and his symptoms were worse when he was upset or nervous etc.Maybe they are exaggerated with Michael too under the circumstances.
Boy in just a short while I’ve had so much feedback on this question!!
Thanks! :-))

I am starting to develop small lines around my mouth and eyes and I need to start using something to either slow it down or eliminate them. I have never used any strong anti aging wrinkle creams before and there are so many to choose from. What should I buy?

I like to know how possible to stable from Parkinson’s Disease or cure pls?

I have combination, acne prone skin, but would like a great wrinkle cream, moisturizer, etc. Help!

Why are embryonic stem cells an effective treatment for Parkinson’s disease? What makes them better than say deep brain stimulation or dopamine enhancing drugs such as Levodopa?

Thanks

I’m a 24 year old, non-smoking female with no real noticeable lines. I was wondering if I started using an anti-wrinkle face cream now, would I delay the first signs of ageing…Or is this only useful once the lines are present?

Tell me, how to protect my skin wrinkle so fast? There are so many choice. Which one?

I remember Michael J Fox saying if he’s moving around playing hockey his symptoms are not as bad which I can understand because he’s moving around but also during sleep.
I’ve had the worse pain lately, just the right side of my face/head I think from allergies somehow but I have it before I sleep and when I wake up but not when I’m asleep almost like it is temporarily turned off.
How can sleep do things like this especially in the case of Parkinson’s

Im doing a research project for biology.Its due tomorrow but im in desperate need of help.Im struggling to find the number of parkinson’s disease cases in sa and globally.please help if you can.asap

Yehhhh. i used my mom’s anti wrinkle cream for my under eye line , LOL, just curious does it work?

In my research on Parkinson’s (I have it), I came across an interesting finding - a disease called tardive dyskinesia which is caused by TOO MUCH L-dopa. Parkinson’s is caused by not enough L-dopa (which is converted to dopamine in the brain– the dopamine deficiency is the cause of the neurological symptoms).

The treatment for tardive dyskinesia is to reduce L-dopa.
The treatment for Parkinson’s is to increase L-dopa.

The amino acids which convert to L-dopa are the aromatic amino acids (phenylalanine, tyrosine, tryptophan) . Those with tardive dyskinesia are prescribed a regimen which avoids these amino acids. Instead they take a set of amino acids known as ‘branched chain amino acids’ (bcaa) on an empty stomach because these bcaa’s do not produce L-dopa. But, the VERY INTERESTING fact is that bcaa’s and the aromatic amino acids compete for transport across the blood-brain barrier.

Would a regimen of aromatic amino acids on an empty stomach promote L-dopa synthesis?

I’m in my 20s, and don’t have to worry about wrinkles on my face just yet. But I was wondering, will using an *anti*-wrinkle cream now help me avoid wrinkles later, or do I have to specifically use a wrinkle-*preventing* cream? And if so, what should I look for? Thanks.
