Aging skin concerns a great many peiople. Mature skin is skin over 25 years old. The middle layer of the skin, called the dermis, is 70% composed of collagen fibers that are responsible for giving strength, form and stability to the skin; and elastin fibers that are flexible and resilient like rubber bands. Together, they keep the skin toned, firm and unwrinkled. Unfortunately, age diminishes their strength and elasticity causing wrinkles, lines and sags.

​

Aging skin...wrinkles...is not the fault of time but of oxidation. Highly reactive molecular fragments known as free radicals cause this cell damaging process. Ultraviolet radiation from sunlight is the #1 creator of skin damaging free radicals cause this cell damaging process. Ultraviolet radiation from sunlight is the #1 creator of skin damaging free radicals. The environment places great stress on our skin, chemical air pollution, sun, wind, cold winter air, and dry indoor air, all combine to age our skin. Even our natural metabolic processes create free radicals to work against us. A good healthy diet and exercise have a positive affect of reducing free radicals; also avoidance of irritating cosmetics and smoking will help. But it is impossible to totally eliminate the creation of skin damaging free radicals.

​

Anti-oxidants work to neutralize free radicals. These anti-oxidants are found in fruits, vegetables and non-processed natural foods. There are dietary supplements of anti-oxidants. Unfortunately, only a very small percentage of ingested anti-oxidants reach the skin (about 5%). The best method of introducing anti-oxidants to the skin is a direct application to the skin, to be absorbed by the skin, to soak into the dermis and protect those collagen and elastin fibers.
