Look at this 47 year old woman. She is a bord certified Dermatologist (medical doctor) and looks very similar to her chronological age. She does what ever it takes to look younger, but barely looks any younger than her age. She also follows a vegan diet.

Now look at Bryan Johnson. He spends millions upon millions to be younger. His diet is perfect and he has a team of 20+ doctors so that he ages as slowly as possible. He is 47 and looks around that age. You may say that he only did his "blueprint" program for 3 years, however, he spend thousands on plastic surgery, so he should look younger.

No point in all that plastic surgery or creams unless you have obvious wrinkles/acne. Only way will be through some form of gene therapy/drugs that are yet to be built.

Thoughts? Agree or disagree?

I disagree. You can escape it. Use retinol, eat the right foods, no smoking and/or drinking, avoid sunlight, skincare routine that incorporates Retinol and good sleep.

In general, East Asians tend to age like fine wine compared to Caucasians. There's a reason why East Asians drink herbal soups (like birds nest soup) and eat foods that are high in collagen (It's part of their diet)

@omegamaster: Agreed. Sunlight, smoking, drinking, and bad diets age you super quickly. If you keep those in check, you can look youthful for your age.

Yeah, forget these dopes. Look to the real Brian Johnson for inspiration. Is old as dirt, looks old as dirt, but he sang for AC/DC so he will always be better than you.

I disagree. I have constantly been told that I look younger than my age. My father and mother was the same way. However, I think it was up to genetics for all of those in my family.

Look at this guy. He is 57 and looks 20: https://www.boredpanda.com/50-year-old-photographer-asian-do-not-age-chuando-tan/

I think you can. If you're active and exercise and eat well and don't drink, you will have more energy and act younger...your "aura" will be that of a younger person.

I think it is admirable to age gracefully, and most attempts to fight it via artificial means (various procedures) do not end well. You can only get one or two facelifts in your life, save them for when you're actually old, not in your 50's.

I've always been mistaken for being younger than I am.

On the current tour he looks alright. Definitely not the Brian Johnson from days of The Razor's Edge or Ballbreaker but still alright. Old is Angus. Maybe it's the gray hair.

I didn't know Kamala Harris is 59. She looks pretty damn good.

Eh, can't have everything. Focus on passions instead of complexes, I figure, so that you're not a seething ball of resentment when time does run out.
