How Lisa Reduced Her Skin Age by 4 Years in Just 7 Months with The Solution
When it comes to skincare, we're often promised smoother skin, fewer wrinkles and a more youthful appearance. But how often can those changes actually be measured?
At Oslo Skin Lab, we're passionate about combining science with real-world results. That's why we were excited to follow Lisa's skin journey over seven months using VISIA® Skin Analysis technology at The Hampton Clinic.
The results were remarkable.
By taking The Solution every day as the only new addition to her routine, Lisa saw her VISIA® True Skin Age decrease from 51 to 47 years old in just seven months, despite being one year older chronologically.
Why Skin Age Matters
As we age, our natural collagen production declines. From our mid-twenties onwards, collagen levels gradually decrease, contributing to the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, loss of firmness and changes in skin texture.
The Solution contains clinically studied bioactive collagen peptides designed to stimulate the body's own collagen production, helping to support skin health from within.
Unlike topical skincare products that work primarily on the skin's surface, collagen peptides work deeper within the skin structure, supporting the dermis where collagen is naturally found.
Lisa's Starting Point
In June 2025, Lisa underwent her first VISIA® skin assessment at The Hampton Clinic.
The advanced imaging system analyses multiple aspects of skin quality, including wrinkles, texture, pores, pigmentation and UV damage, comparing results against people of a similar age and skin type.
At the start of her journey, Lisa's VISIA® results showed:
Although many of her results were typical for someone of her age, the scan indicated opportunities for improvement in visible signs of skin ageing, particularly wrinkles and overall skin age (True Skin Age result : 51 years).
Following the assessment, Lisa began taking The Solution daily.
Importantly, she did not make any significant changes to her skincare routine during this period.
Seven Months Later: The Results
In February 2026, Lisa returned to The Hampton Clinic for a follow-up VISIA® scan.
The comparison revealed measurable improvements across several key skin ageing indicators.
A Skin Age Four Years Younger
Perhaps the most striking result was the change in Lisa's VISIA® True Skin Age.
Her estimated skin age reduced from 51 years old to 47 years old over the seven-month period.
In other words, while Lisa had become one year older chronologically, her skin was assessed as appearing four years younger than it had at the start of her journey.
Significant Improvement in Wrinkles
Lisa's wrinkle score improved from 28% to 57%.
VISIA® wrinkle scores compare skin condition against people of the same age and skin type, meaning this improvement represented a substantial positive shift in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Improvements in Skin Quality
The scans also showed positive changes in other skin quality markers, including pigmentation and overall skin condition.
Taken together, the results suggested a measurable improvement in the overall appearance of the skin over the seven-month period.
What Lisa Thought
While the imaging technology provided objective measurements, Lisa also noticed changes herself.
“We are crazy to think that we can turn back the clocks and suddenly look 10 years younger. I also strongly believe we should embrace our laughter lines and feel lucky to be getting old. However, we can still try our best to age gracefully. The Solution has helped my nails and hair feel stronger and I definitely think my skin feels more hydrated. My daughters have been very complimentary, so something must be happening! Nothing happens overnight, you need to be patient, but it is so easy to take The Solution due to its brilliant little daily sachets, which means I've barely missed one. Not to mention you really can't taste it, so you can add it to pretty much anything.”
She adds:
“The biggest difference I noticed was in the comparison images. You don't always see changes day to day, but side-by-side the improvement was clear.”
Why VISIA® Technology Matters
One of the advantages of this journey was the use of VISIA® Skin Analysis technology.
VISIA® is widely used by dermatologists, aesthetic practitioners and skin clinics worldwide to provide standardised, high-resolution assessments of skin quality. By using controlled lighting and advanced imaging, it allows practitioners to track changes over time with a greater degree of objectivity than visual assessment alone.
While individual results will always vary depending on factors such as age, genetics, lifestyle, sun exposure and consistency of use, technologies like VISIA® can help provide a more structured understanding of how skin changes over time.
The Takeaway
Lisa's experience demonstrates the value of consistency and patience when it comes to supporting skin health from within.
After seven months of taking The Solution daily, her VISIA® analysis showed:
- Skin age reduced from 51 to 47 years
- Significant improvement in wrinkle appearance
- Positive changes across multiple skin quality markers
While no supplement can stop the ageing process, Lisa's results suggest that supporting the skin with clinically studied collagen peptides may help improve visible signs of skin ageing over time.
Because healthy-looking skin starts beneath the surface.
