How it works
Ageing of the skin is the result of a combination of genetic and
environmental factors and is accelerated by free radical damage from
exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation, environmental air pollution,
smoking and extreme temperatures. Poor nutrition and lifestyle also play
a role in skin ageing.
UV radiation results in a significant depletion of the skin’s
antioxidant substances such as betacarotene, lycopene, lutein and
vitamins A, C and E. It is thought that supplemental antioxidants may
help reduce skin damage resulting from free radical damage.
Various components are involved in maintaining strength, elasticity
and integrity of the skin:
Collagen & elastin fibres provide strength and
flexibility. As we age, elastin fibres fragment and much of the skin’s
elastic quality is lost. This, along with the loss of fat from under the
skin, results in wrinkles. Age-related loss of collagen results in
reduced skin tone.
Glycosaminoglycans & proteoglycans are substances
that are present in the matrix of the skin where they facilitate
hydration. Age related changes in these substances result in fine lines
and wrinkles.
To repair damaged cells and tissues, the body needs proteins, vitamins,
minerals and other nutrients to synthesize skin components.
