Do You Understand Why You Need Vitamin A?

Dull Skin.  Fine lines and wrinkles.  Age/sun spots.  Yuk.

Exfoliation.   Imperative.

Aging skin still ranks as the No. 1 problem for most women.

Without question, the greatest boon to aging treatment methods was the introduction of retinoic acid by Albert M. Kligman, MD, PhD, in 1986.  Since then, the world of Vitamin A has exploded.

People are living longer and are healthier than ever.  What is considered middle age has jumped 15-20 years during the past 50 years, and will continue to rise.  (I love this!)

Vitamin A plays a critical role in skin health.  It has a fundamentally cellular effect on the skin.  And Retinol can be used with all skin types.  (Retinol is actually Vitamin A in its most pure and active form.)  

It is used in skin care products to:

  • reduce wrinkles and fine lines
  • improve rough spots
  • revitalize the skin’s natural tone and color

Retinol improves skin health by speeding up cell regeneration.

RETINOL ASSISTS EXFOLIATION BY ENCOURAGING DEAD CELLS

TO BE SLOUGHED OFF BY NEWER, HEALTHIER SKIN CELLS. 

It encourages the body to rebuild collagen in the skin, which is essential for skin elasticity.

Therefore, the skin’s epidermis is thickened and the signs of aging caused by thin and fragile skin are reduced. The skin becomes firmer and younger looking.

Retinol is an important ingredient of high quality skin care products, providing visible, long-lasting results.  Needless to say, our Apothecary is stocked with many forms of Vitamin A.

Regular use of Retinol will lead to a considerable decrease in the premature and present appearance of aging that is caused by environmental stressors.
