How to look younger: ‘I’m a doctor: a daily product that is the best investment you can make for anti-ageing’

GB News · Expert comment · 6 March 2025

In March 2025 GB News asked Dr Ed for his advice on how to look younger, and the single habit he considers the best investment for long-term anti-ageing.

What Dr Ed said

Dr Ed put prevention first.

“My first tip would be prevention is better than cure. Wear SPF daily from as early an age as possible. It is the best investment you can make for anti-ageing long-term.”

Quoted exactly as published by GB News on 6 March 2025.

He explained that good sun protection means people are likely to need less spent on other anti-ageing treatments later.

Clinical context

Ultraviolet exposure is responsible for much of the visible ageing seen on the face, including fine lines, pigmentation and loss of elasticity, which is why dermatologists and aesthetic doctors put sunscreen first. A broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher, applied generously every morning and reapplied when outdoors, is the foundation. Retinoids and antioxidants can add to it.
