Lustriva® Part 3 of 3: Lustriva® for Skin, Glow, and Graceful Aging: The Beauty-From-Within Breakthrough Nobody Saw Coming


If Parts 1 and 2 were about hair, today I want to take us somewhere more surprising.

Because the truth is: Lustriva® may have entered the world as a “hair growth complex”…But the skin results in the clinical trials are what made me pause as a dermatologist.


It’s not often that a nutritional ingredient quietly shows measurable changes in wrinkles, texture, and radiance—not vague claims, but actual improvements captured on 3D imaging systems with objective endpoints.


And yet… that’s exactly what we saw.


So in Part 3, let’s talk about something deeper than hair: How Lustriva interacts with your collagen, your facial structure, your glow—and why so many women are beginning to see it as a beauty-from-within aging companion, not just a hair supplement.


Let’s go far beyond “beauty gummies” and into the real science of internal aesthetics.


Why beauty-from-within matters more than ever


Our skin ages from two directions:

  • Externally — UV, pollution, inflammation, lifestyle

  • Internally — collagen loss, hormonal changes, oxidative stress, nutrient depletion


Most skincare routines only address the outside.

But your collagen matrix, dermal density, and microcirculation begin internally—in the bloodstream, in the fibroblasts, in the structure beneath your surface.


That’s why beauty supplements are exploding. Not because of hype, but because women are realizing:

“If my skin is dull, tired, or thinning… creams alone won’t save me.”

And this is the space where Lustriva becomes unexpectedly compelling.


The study that changed everything


In the same 12-week clinical study that evaluated hair growth, researchers used 3D facial mapping to analyze skin changes.


The findings ? The high-dose Lustriva group experienced improvements in:

  • overall wrinkle depth

  • surface skin texture

  • parameters linked to dermal smoothness and glow


These weren’t subjective “I feel more radiant today” shifts. These were instrument-measured improvements, statistically significant.


It’s rare to see a hair supplement impact the skin so directly . But when you understand the biochemistry, it starts to make sense.


How Lustriva works under the skin (literally)

There are three things inside Lustriva worth paying attention to:


Biotin (in its highly soluble magnesium biotinate form) supports keratin and cell turnover—but more importantly, this form is designed for much better bioavailability than standard D-biotin.


Silicon (as arginine-silicate-inositol complex). Silicon is essential for:

  • collagen stabilization

  • cross-linking of collagen fibers

  • dermal elasticity

  • hydration regulation


Silicon-rich environments produce collagen that behaves younger.


Arginine improves microcirculation and supports nitric oxide pathways. More blood flow → better delivery of nutrients → healthier dermal matrix.


Together, these elements create a kind of collagen-supportive microclimate inside the skin.


It doesn’t replace procedures. But it does something that fillers, lasers, and topicals cannot: It builds health from the inside.


The glow effect: what patients tell me


I always know when something “real” is happening because even my most skeptical patients start describing changes without being prompted:


“My makeup goes on smoother". “My fine lines don’t look as deep". “My face looks fresher, like I slept better". “My skin looks… hydrated?”


Glow is not one thing—it is a sum of:

  • fewer creases

  • better texture

  • improved microcirculation

  • less dullness

  • more even light reflection


Lustriva seems to nudge the body back toward that youthful baseline where the skin behaves more efficiently—less chaotic, more resilient.


Why women in their 30s, 40s, 50s, and 60s respond differently


I’ve seen distinct patterns:


30s — early improvements in glow, smoothness, jawline brightness, 40s — improved elasticity and fewer “tired-day lines”, 50s — deeper hydration, better bounce, softer neck lines 60s — smoother makeup, less crepey texture, brightened tone


This isn’t magic—this is cell behavior. You give fibroblasts the raw materials, and they simply function better.


And when your skin functions better internally, everything else—PRP, microneedling, retinoids, exosomes—works more efficiently externally.


Lustriva for wrinkles: why this ingredient actually matters


People often ask me, “Can a supplement really help wrinkles?”


Here’s the nuance:

  • Lustriva does not paralyze muscles (Botox does that)

  • It does not restore lost volume (fillers do that)

  • It does not resurface skin (peels/lasers do that)


What it does do is support the environment underneath the wrinkles.


Picture it like this:

If your dermal layer is thinning, depleted, dry, or disorganized, your wrinkles become deeper and more visible, even if you use excellent skincare.


But when you improve:

  • collagen cross-linking

  • silicon-dependent elasticity

  • cell turnover

  • hydration distribution

  • microcirculation


…wrinkles soften from the inside.


It’s like improving the mattress beneath the bedsheet. The sheet will naturally look smoother.


How I combine Lustriva with in-office skin treatments

This is where the magic happens.


When my patients are on Lustriva and come in for treatments, I often see surprisingly enhanced results.


Microneedling Healing is quicker, redness is milder, and the final texture improvement is more dramatic.


Radiofrequency Microneedling (eMatrix). The collagen remodeling phase seems more robust—skin feels firmer earlier.


PRP Skin Rejuvenation lasts longer. Patients describe a “lit-from-within” effect.


Exosomes for SkinInternal support creates a stronger foundation for these regenerative signals.


Chemical Peels I rarely recommend chemical peels (you know this), but for the few who still choose them, internal collagen support reduces post-peel dryness and dullness.

Beauty-from-within is not hype. Biology just works better when fed properly.


Who benefits the most from Lustriva for skin


Women who notice:

  • dullness

  • dryness that won’t improve

  • fine lines that deepen midday

  • sallow tone

  • thinning skin

  • rough texture

  • “tired face days”

  • increased crepe around the eyes and neck


These women often respond beautifully because their skin is craving internal support—not just topical hydration.


Who I get cautious with


The same cautions apply as in the hair articles:

  • pregnancy/breastfeeding

  • uncontrolled medical conditions

  • complex medication lists

  • significant autoimmune conditions

  • silicon allergies (rare but possible)

  • unrealistic expectations


I treat supplements like treatments—they must fit your biochemistry, not your hopes.


What results look like (realistically)


Visible improvements often show up as:

  • healthier tone

  • smoother surface texture

  • improved bounce

  • better makeup performance

  • less dryness

  • decreased “etched-in” look around the eyes

  • slower deepening of lines

  • overall radiance


People rarely say, “My wrinkles are gone.”They say, “I look better—do you know what I mean?”


Yes. I do.


My honest thoughts as a dermatologist


Lustriva is not a fad. It’s not a gimmick. It is not one of the performative supplements that flood your Instagram feed.


What makes it different is the structure:

  • a clinically validated complex

  • In a soluble form, your body actually absorbs

  • with measurable changes in hair and skin

  • tested in the same real-world population that sits in my clinic daily


I don’t position it as a “wrinkle pill.”I position it as an internal support system for women who want to age gracefully without fighting their biology.


Aging isn’t the enemy . Collagen depletion is. Inflammation is . Nutrient starvation is.

Support those systems—and your skin remembers how to behave young again.


This closes our Lustriva Trilogy, but only opens the door to the real conversation we’re all having now:


What does aging well look like in 2026 and beyond?

For me, it looks like this:


Smart internal support.Thoughtful external treatments.And a relationship with your skin that feels like a partnership—not war.


May your skin glow as brightly as your heart.
