NOURISHMENT AND PROTECTION FOR YOUR SKIN
There’s no need to reinvent the wheel. While advances in aesthetic treatments continue, and new ways to protect and nourish the skin are discovered, there are certain tried and tested substances that shouldn’t be left behind, but used in combination with breakthroughs and advancements to optimally treat the skin of your face and body.
Retinol
Retinol is one of the best-known skin care ingredients available today. Retinol and retinoid acid is derived from vitamin A and is most often used in the effective treatment of ageing and mature skin, skin texture, acne-prone skin, pigmentation, and melasma. Both the ZO Skin Health range and Medik8 are rich in retinol, making good use of its rejuvenating properties.
SPF
SPF ointments restrict how much UV radiation your skin is exposed to, ranging from mild formulations to total sun blocks. The ZO Skin Health range in particular emphasises protection from the harmful *effects of UVA and UVB rays from the sun and blue light from screens, offering a sophisticated array of sunscreen products that dovetail with other powerful ingredients in your bespoke treatment plan.
Vitamin C
When vitamin C is applied topically to the skin, it stimulates the production of collagen and elastin – the key elements in our skin that keep it plump and firm. Topical vitamin C can support the prevention of premature ageing of the skin, brighten the skin, and reduce pigmentation, restoring a more youthful, smoother complexion. Both Medik8 and Zo Skin Health products deliver the benefits of vitamin C to your skin
