Quote from new 2017 PMC article by Blagosklonny: "by reducing cellular senescence, rapamycin may be considered to prevent photo aging. Rapalogs (rapamycin and everolimus) can be used not only systemically but also topically. Rapalog-based creams are expected not to interfere with sun tanning and vitamin D3 synthesis."

 

Let's discuss

Looks to be easy to make - just crush up the rapamycin and mix it into Vaseline. This has been done successfully for people suffering from angiofibromas using a 0.1% crushed tablet formulation.

Darn, if only there was, now a cheap way of getting it

No further discussion on that???

I am up for trying. 

 

1- Can we use the liquid Rapamycin for this purpose? What would I ideally mix it with so its not too runny?

2- How often would one use it? Every day?

I'd love to hear back as well, if anyone tried this or not. I don't have the budget for everolimus but it'd be interesting to experiment with this. I wonder how much it would differ from fasting.

I crushed up a couple of milligrams of rapamycin and put it in a small pot of vaseline. It caused a tingling sensation but unfortunately there was no penetration of the skin using vaseline, it just sat on top.

 

So you can see why this would work for angiofibromas, which occur on the surface (see https://www.ncbi.nlm...pubmed/24359523 ) but to affect the fibroblasts we need a cream that can penetrate deeper.

Any idea if he liquid version would penetrate deep enough is simply applied on the scalp?
