The Science Behind Skin Health

The Science Behind Skin Health

Collagen and elastin are the building blocks of youthful skin. Collagen provides structure and firmness, while elastin ensures elasticity and strength. Over time, the natural production of both declines, leading to sagging, wrinkles, and textural changes. While most focus has been on facial treatments, body skin also requires specific care to maintain its integrity.

Why body skin care matters:

• Body skin contains fewer sebaceous glands, which makes it more prone to dryness and slower healing.
• Areas like the hands, décolleté and legs are frequently exposed to environmental damage, leading to premature aging such as age spots and ‘chicken skin’ (keratosis pilaris).
• Imbalanced hydration and a weakened barrier contribute to concerns like cellulite, crepey texture and hyperpigmentation.

Clinical body products are designed to address these unique needs. High-performance formulations rich in peptides, vitamin C, niacinamide and anti-glycation minerals stimulate collagen and elastin production, while preventing transepidermal water loss (TEWL), ensuring skin health is maintained from head to toe.
