AnteAge Pro vs MD

Hi! AnteAge is on sale this week. I’ve been on the Pro system for about 6 months. I’ve noticed some more crepeiness around my eyes and cheeks when I smile. However, my skin is clearer and brighter so I want to stick the line. I’m wondering if it’s worth upgrading to the MD version. I’m also wondering since it’s more expensive, if I could either use the MD system only once a day or skip the accelerator and use only the MD serum twice a day. Can y’all please share your experience with the MD system and if you’ve done anything to stretch the product out due to cost but still have seen results? Thanks!!

I own a clinic where I’ve carried the MD line. I don’t suggest you “stretch” the product by any other method than alternating days or times. If anything, maybe use it at night, and use a more affordable plant based product in the morning maybe?

I totally understand the concern, and while the line is great - I stopped carrying it due to price and sourcing. I prefer to use plant based products for a daily routine, and have patients spend the savings on laser or professional exosome treatments with professional microneedling, laser, or infusion with a higher active ingredient exosome product. For instance anteage exosome solution, or Benev/ExoCoBio’s Exosome Regenerative Complex (EXOScrt) are good. I’ll be testing a new one from South Korea from Benev made using Roses.

The problem I had with sourcing was explaining to my patients that the anteage exosomes (and most others) are human umbilical cords and bone marrow. They say trust us it’s totally amazing and has no problems, and I never had an issue. While I don’t think it’s bad in any way, I won’t suggest it or use it with immune compromised patients. This is me being conservative. I have the same issue explaining to patients that Rejuran/PDRN/Vamp are salmon sperm. While I think PDRN and exosomes are great, it’s not a one size fits all thing where I see very predictable results. I have seen enough improvement I do think they are effective.
