Additional information on Vitamin C and the roll it plays in skin care: Vitamin C (and its derivatives) benefits skin in two important ways. First, it’s essential for the synthesis of collagen, a key structural protein of the skin. Adding a vitamin C to skin cell cultures dramatically increases the synthesis of collagen. Second, vitamin C is a super-powerful antioxidant and can help reduce skin damage caused by free radicals. Free radicals break down collagen, the “glue” that holds skin together, makes it firm, and preserves it’s wrinkle-free quality for as long as possible. Collagen also gives the skin resilience, lessening the likelihood of wrinkles. In the worst cases, free radicals can run amuck and permanently damage skin cells, causing blotches, or even skin cancer. As a potent antioxidant, vitamin C also appears to prevent sun damage, even after sun exposure. Because vitamin C helps break the chain of destruction caused by the sun-induced free radicals, this vitamin helps to halt, or slow, skin damage. In addition, because vitamin C is absorbed into your skin, neither water activities nor perspiration can wash it off. When vitamin C is properly delivered into skin cells, there is a good chance to reduce wrinkles and improve skin texture. Studies have proven that Vitamin C helps to minimize fine lines, scars, and wrinkles. It is also a natural skin brightener and lightener and will reduce uneven pigment (sun spots, age spots, liver spots, melasma) by inhibiting melanin production. NOTE: Not everyone will respond to Vitamin C treatments, but approximately 50% of people do show noticeable benefits. |
