Abstract : The concept of aging and death has changed a lot from the past. Modern science has developed to such an extent that even the very foundations of the concept of aging has been changed and the possibility of stopping if not reversing the process of aging is not a thing of the distant future. From the early days of creams and lotions, the anti aging arena is all set to fight aging with the latest hormonal therapies like the human growth hormone therapy and the bioidentical hormone therapy. With the significant breakthroughs in the fields of genetics and stem cell technology the anti aging science is equipped better than ever before to realize the dream of reversing aging. Revolutionizing breakthroughs in anti aging cosmetics like the Botox, emergence of laser treatment, liposuction, dermal fillers along with the many success stories appearing in research journals day by day there has been a significant boost in the researches being conducted across the world in anti aging science. Seeing the tremendous potential for market in this field many manufactures have taken advantage of this common dream of age reversal and flooded the market with products with both real as well as hyped promises and guarantees. So it is up to us to use our conscience and knowledge of the current situation to differentiate the real products and services from the hyped ones.
