Aging skin

In the battle against skin ageing, there are so-called 'miracle' ingredients - Retinoids that are the best solutions to fight undesirable skin changes.
The retinoid family comprises vitamin A and its natural derivatives. Vitamin A cannot be synthesised by the body; hence it needs to be supplied to the body. 

Natural and synthetic retinoids provide significant histological and clinical improvement. Amongst the retinoids, tretinoin is the most potent.

Retinoids: Wonder Products

The retinoid family: tretinoin, retinol, retinaldehyde — a class of synthetic and naturally occurring Vitamin A compounds and derivatives. Tretinoin was originally developed as an acne treatment in the 1960s.

Retinoids produce significant changes in epidermal and dermal skin cells and tissues. Users not only see a real improvement in their acne, but also with fine lines and wrinkles, pigmentation and roughness.

Select the strength according to your individual needs. Acne usually requires at least Tretinoin 0.025%

Vitamin C (Ascorbic acid)

As we age, the skin naturally tends to show more signs of photoaging, such as fine lines and wrinkles. One of the ways the skin can help keep itself renewed and healthy-looking is with antioxidants like Vitamin C (L-Ascorbic Acid). Vitamin C helps reduce the look of fine lines and wrinkles, which results in more youthful-looking skin.

Vitamin C also keeps skin hydrated by enhancing moisture content. Adding Vitamin C serum to a daily moisturiser will help skin stay fresh-looking and moisturised.

Topically, L-Ascorbic Acid comes in concentrations of 10%, 15%, and 20%. Apply a few drops of the serum to the face, neck, and chest every morning before your moisturiser and sunscreen.

Sun Protection

Solar UV radiation unquestionably is the single major factor responsible for skin ageing.

This specific damage occurs by chronic (multiple) exposure of the skin to UV light. Clinically, the skin becomes coarse; epidermis thickens (hyperplasia) initially and then thins (atrophy), there is laxity, sallowness with wrinkles, and irregular hyperpigmentation.

More profound changes occur in the dermis, where photodamage is characterised by degeneration of collagen and deposition of abnormal elastotic material, reflected by wrinkles, furrows, and yellow discolouration of the skin.

The microcirculation is also affected by sun exposure. Blood vessels become dilated and twisted, causing broken capillaries, permanent redness, and rosacea.

Sun protection is the most important step to take in fighting skin aging, especially when using Retinoids
