Skin Anarchy The Beauty Molecule That Is Changing Everything Featuring Renowned Dr. Perricone
In this episode of Skin Anarchy, host Ekta is joined by the legendary Dr. Nicholas Perricone to explore the science behind aging, inflammation, and the future of skincare. Known for pioneering the link between inflammation and aging, Dr. Perricone returns to the spotlight with his new book, The Beauty Molecule, which dives into the cutting-edge science of mitochondrial health and acetylcholine’s role in reversing cellular damage.
Listeners will hear how Dr. Perricone challenged conventional dermatology by developing the first anti-inflammatory skincare and diet regimen—decades ahead of its time. He breaks down how mitochondrial dysfunction contributes to aging and inflammation, and why boosting acetylcholine—the “beauty molecule”—can transform not only skin health, but overall longevity. From daily meditation and exercise to transdermal antioxidants and hydrogen water, Dr. Perricone outlines a practical roadmap for rewiring how we think about beauty and wellness.
The episode also explores the therapeutic promise of peptides, hydrogen water as a metabolic therapy, and why the future of skincare may lie in biochemistry over cosmetic quick fixes. Backed by data and decades of research, this conversation will shift your perspective on aging from surface-level solutions to deep, cellular renewal.
Whether you're a skincare aficionado, health professional, or wellness seeker, this episode offers an inspiring and scientifically grounded look at the future of beauty. Tune in to hear how Dr. Perricone is redefining aging—one molecule at a time.
