Research has shown that Aging Skin is very similar to that of wounded skin. As skin ages the structural function of the different layers beings to weaken and breakdown causing a loss in elasticity and volume which leads to the sagging, wrinkled appearance of aged and damaged skin. The bedrock of our skin is in the vascular supply, young skin with strong capillaries is apply to provide a consistent supply of nutrients and oxygen to the dermis. The vascular supply is also removing the toxins and oxidative stress from our skin that is accumulated through environmental exposure such as poor diet, sun damage, smog and other chemicals. The dermis is responsible for housing and producing our collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid. These are the powerhouse of youthful, taught, full skin. As we age the production and quality of these proteins declines resulting in a weaker and less effective variation. The most superficial layer of skin, the Epidermis, is known for its high cellular vitality providing our skin with that sustained glow and radiance. As we age the loss of cellular vitality and slower cell turn over due to a lack of nutrients, and accumulation of toxins dulls our natural glow. Have you ever noticed how a baby’s skin glows? That is because the skin cells of an infant are as effective as they will ever be, full of nutrients, good blood supply and free from environmental stressors and toxins.
So what is the secret to restoring our skin vitality? Feed it! Eliminate the toxins and environmental stressors and provide it with the nutrients it needs to thrive and regenerate.
