The Skin Aging Process

As we age, our skin loses its ability to stay young looking and healthy. The upper layer of the skin, (the epidermis), thins and cellular turnover decreases causing the skin to lose moisture and look dull. Collagen and elastin, the support structures of the second layer of skin, (the dermis), begin to break down causing skin to lose it’s strength and elasticity. This normal aging process is accelerated by environmental factors. Pollutants, sunlight and cigarette smoke cause the release of oxygen free radicals which contribute to the destruction of collagen and elastin.

How Should I use my Skinsiderations Products?

With any skin care routine, it is important to start slowly and allow your skin time to adjust to the changes of rejuvenation. We suggest that you cleanse twice a day with the gentle cleanser and apply toner immediately afterward. Initially, use your skin care cream product once a day for at least 3-4 weeks. If you have difficulty tolerating this, decrease to every other day. Finally, you may work your way up to using your product twice a day or as directed by your physician or aesthetician.
