Fact check: Can alum and Vitamin E really erase wrinkles for good?
Wrinkles stem from collagen loss, oxidative stress, and UV damage. Dr Sachin Gupta highlights that alum lacks evidence for restoring skin structure, and vitamin E only offers mild hydration. Effective care includes retinoids, photoprotection, and in-office treatments. Unsupported DIY blends cannot reverse intrinsic ageing and may risk irritation without clinical benefit.
