Abstract:

The Claimed Invention is the topical-to-skin use of generic estradiol, estriol, conjugated estrogens, or any other synthetic estrogen within a non-absorbable generic vehicle of cream, lotion, ointment, shampoo, hair tonic, and wound-healing powder, having no absorbents or deconstructors in their formulas. This invention causes skin basal cells to produce increased quantities of collagen and to retain skin-water resulting in increased skin-thickness. This increased thickness results in improved resilience, resistance to injury, trauma and infection. The target of this invention is the skin and skin only. Specifically, there is no intended absorption of hormone into the circulation to result in side effects or risk. Any possible unintended and minimal quantity of hormone absorbed would be metabolized normally by the liver and excreted in the urine without risk or awareness to the user. Improving skin health and healing existing injuries/disease can save individuals from mid 30's and older, and society in general millions of dollars annually in skin-related health care costs.
