CHezza's Faves: How Skin Care Ingredient Penetration Works

3/11/2019

Comments

 
Simple stated, stay with a small molecule size for best penetration.  Microderms, commonly known as Microdermabrasion can often help to slough off old dead skin we need to shed and ultimately provide a better canvas for those high performing ingredients to penetrate like peptides and serums.
Here is some great info from futurederm:

When you apply a serum, lotion, or cream, it encounters the uppermost layer of skin, which is called the stratum corneum. Depending on the size and chemical properties of the ingredients, three different things can happen:

1: Small and Permeable: Absorbed by Skin Cells
If the ingredients in your product are small and permeable, they will be uptaken by skin cells and processed. After a period of time, the ingredients will be secreted out of the skin cells and will enter the circulation. This includes ingredients like L-ascorbic acid (vitamin C), tocopherol acetate (vitamin E), and retinol (vitamin A).

2: Large and Non-Permeable: Goes Between Skin Cells
If the ingredients in your product are too large to be uptaken by skin cells, they will move between the skin cells for a period of time. After a while, these ingredients will also enter the circulation and be excreted from the body. These include peptide ingredients like Matrixyl 3000, which have been shown to work at a space between skin cells known as the dermo-epidermal junction (DEJ)

3: Large and Non-Permeable: Is Temporarily Absorbed by Glands
If the ingredients in your product are not absorbed by your skin cells, they may also be temporarily absorbed by some glands in a process known as ”appendageal absorption”. In this process, there are “reservoir effects” in which substances may be stored within the glands for absorption over time before being released into the bloodstream. This includes ingredients like aluminum, which is the reason for some of the controversy surrounding aluminum-containing deodorants.

HOW MICRODERMABRASION WORKS AND THE BENEFITS

3/11/2019

Comments

 
Microderm or commonly called Microdermabrasion is a mechanical form of exfoliation, it uses vacuum suction and a diamond tip head with a filter.  I often tell my clients it feels like a cat's tongue along the skin.  Often you will experience better results with product penetration after a microderm session
Here is an article with lots of helpful information:

Microdermabrasion is a very effective skin treatment that can help to renew your skin and give it a more youthful appearance, if you opt for multiple treatment sessions then the benefits for your skin can be incredible.

Microdermabrasion is a form of deep exfoliation utilizing vacuum suction and a diamond tip head (don't worry it is not painful, think of how a cat's tongue feels) It assists in removing dead skin cells and improve the texture and smoothness of the skin, as well as promoting the production of fresh collagen and cells.

As well as simply creating a youthful glow, it can be used to treat a wide range of skin problems including fine lines, sun damage, flaking skin, enlarged pores, acne scars, pigmentation, dry skin, age spots, stretch marks and more.  Microderm assists in helping products to be better absorbed such as serums and moisturizers.
  • No Preparation Needed – Because it can be used directly on skin without any preparation, it is a very convenient treatment which you can enjoy whenever it suits your schedule.
  • Instant Results – As soon as you walk out of the clinic you will already be able to notice the difference in your skin. It is fast acting and you will not have to wait days before you see the difference.
  • Comfortable and Painless – Some skin treatments may lead to mild discomfort, but a microdermabrasion facial is completely painless so it is suitable for everyone.
  • Suitable for All Skin Types – One of the great things about microdermabrasion is that it can be used on any skin type so you know that it is suitable for you.
  • Improves Absorption of High-Tech Skincare Products – If you use high-tech products to make your skin look and feel better, a microdermabrasion facial allows these to be absorbed into the skin better so that you get more out of them.

LONG-TERM BENEFITS OF MULTIPLE MICRODERMABRASION TREATMENTS

Although even a single treatment of microdermabrasion will leave you noticing the difference immediately, for the best results you should consider multiple treatments. The benefits of ongoing treatment include:
  • Clean Pores – You will not have to worry any more about clogged pores because ongoing microdermabrasion treatment will clean out pores to leave your skin smoother and healthier.
  • New Skin Cells – When a microdermabrasion facial becomes a regular treatment, your skin cells will be replaced with new, healthy ones which will make your skin look and feel better.
  • Smoother Skin – You will be able to enjoy much smoother skin which is free from blemishes and fine lines when you take advantage of multiple treatments.
  • Reduced Scarring – If you suffer from acne scarring then a regular microdermabrasion facial treatment can significantly help to reduce the appearance of scarring.
