Have you heard of NAD+?
It's a naturally occurring molecule found in every cell in your body — and it plays a critical role in how your skin ages. The problem is, NAD+ levels decline significantly as we get older. By the time we reach our 40s and 50s, levels can be half of what they were in our 20s.
What Is NAD+?
NAD+ stands for nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide. It's a coenzyme — a helper molecule — that's essential for hundreds of metabolic processes in the body, including energy production, DNA repair, and cell regeneration.
In the skin specifically, NAD+ plays a key role in:
- **Cell energy production** — powering the cellular processes that keep skin healthy and functioning - **DNA repair** — helping skin cells recover from damage caused by UV exposure, pollution, and oxidative stress - **Collagen synthesis** — supporting the production of collagen, the protein responsible for skin firmness and elasticity - **Sirtuin activation** — activating proteins that regulate cellular ageing and inflammation
Why Does NAD+ Decline With Age?
As we age, the body's ability to produce and maintain NAD+ decreases. This decline is accelerated by:
- Sun exposure and UV damage - Poor sleep and chronic stress - Alcohol consumption - Environmental pollution - Inflammation
When NAD+ levels fall, cellular repair slows, energy production drops, and the visible signs of ageing — dullness, fine lines, sagging, uneven tone — begin to accelerate.
NAD+ in Our Aging Solution
NAD+ is a key active ingredient in our Aging Solution treatment at Skin Health Practice. When delivered directly into the skin via advanced microneedling, it bypasses the surface barrier and reaches the deeper layers where cellular regeneration actually takes place.
Unlike topical skincare products, which cannot penetrate deeply enough to deliver NAD+ where it's needed, our microneedling method ensures maximum absorption and efficacy.
Combined with Exosomes, PDRN, and Niacinamide — the other active ingredients in our Aging Solution — NAD+ contributes to a comprehensive cellular renewal process that addresses the visible signs of ageing at their root cause.
What Results Can You Expect?
Patients who undergo a course of Aging Solution treatments typically report:
- Visibly brighter, more luminous skin - Improved firmness and elasticity - Reduction in fine lines and surface texture - A more even, refreshed complexion - Skin that looks and feels healthier overall
Results build progressively with each session, as the cumulative effect of cellular renewal becomes increasingly visible.

Our Aging Solution is suitable for anyone experiencing the early to advanced signs of skin ageing — including dullness, loss of firmness, fine lines, uneven tone, and a tired-looking complexion.
