Anti Aging Elastin and Collagen Creams Exposed

  • July 3, 2010 at 1:52 am



There is a wide variety of anti aging skin care products that promise to rejuvenate the skin, some are useful and other are trash, but people keep buying them because they don’t know any better, however there is a myth that skin care companies have been using to sell their anti wrinkle creams.

Many anti aging products claim that they contain elastin and collagen to reduce wrinkles and look younger, however there is a major problem with that claim, collagen can not be absorbed by the skin, the molecules of collagen are too large to enter the skin.

Although its true that collagen is a vital natural protein that our skin needs to stay young and smooth, the skin cant absorb collagen topically or orally it has to be produced naturally by the body.

Also collagen injections have become common and although they may work for a while, it is usually a short term solution and you will need continuous session in order to keep your skin looking smooth.

The Solution

On the other hand what you really need to do if you want to recover your youthful look and get rid of wrinkles is to stimulate your skin cells to produce more collagen and ealstin naturally.

Most skin care companies don’t know how to achieve this, however there is a natural ingredient from a New Zealand Company which developed a way to extract the protein keratin from the wool of sheep which is called CynergyTk to produce collagen and elastin.

When CynergyTk is rubbed in the skin, the skin absorbs the keratin protein and rebuilds elastin and collagen. This will reduce wrinkles and fine lines, improve the elasticity of the skin and even create new skin cells.

Now you can acquire creams with CynergyTk and improve your skin youthfulness without using risky treatments.

Paraben Free Face Care is the Natural Choice to Make

Everyone wants to look younger but unfortunately many skin care products on the market are actually bad for your skin. Savvy consumers should seek out paraben free lotions and creams, whether for the body, and especially the face.

Obviously the first thing we look at is someone’s face which is why paraben free face care is the only natural, safe, and effective choice when it comes to using a skin product that will actually benefit the health of your skin.

The cosmetic industry likes to use parabens because they are cheap preservatives. It’s all about the money. If their products have longer shelf lives, they can produce more of them, and, in the end, sell more of them.

It’s been suspected for a long time that parabens were not good from a health standpoint. They can irritate the skin, but more ominously, some studies indicate that parabens may cause cancer. Of course, you will find advocates who say that this is hogwash and that parabens are safe.

But to me, it makes sense to use only paraben free lotions and creams. Why take the chance? There is absolutely no reason to use a product with parabens in it when there are better products on the market that do not contain them.

Now, if you want an effective product that will actually make your skin healthier, look smoother, less wrinkled, and more pliant, then it’s not enough to just buy any paraben free face care cream.

You actually have to look for ingredients clinically proven to accomplish what you want.

For example, did you know that phytessence wakame is a sea kelp extract from Japan that has incredible properties that can lead to better skin elasticity, help moisturize and soothe the skin because of its antioxidant activity?

I bet you’ve also never heard of Cynergy TK. This substance contains Functional Keratin that scientific studies have shown can stimulate the growth of new skin cells. It also contains substances, like copper protein complexes, that can help the skin heal more easily. Lastly, and this part is quite incredible, Cynergy TK can also help your body grow collagen and elastin.

If you know anything about skin, you know that collagen and elastin are two proteins that are chiefly responsible for the firmness, the elasticity, and basically the youthfulness of your skin. In fact, the whole reason people look older as the years pass is because these proteins collagen and elastic break down in the skin, leading to sagging, lines, and wrinkles.

In conclusion, high quality paraben free face care lotions will not only avoid dangerous preservatives and chemicals, but also contain incredible natural ingredients like the ones mentioned here that can give you an honest improvement to the texture and appearance of your skin.

Rejuvenate Your Face with a Skin Peel

Skin aging is inevitable. Over time skin becomes thinner and loses it’s elasticity, and we develop lines and wrinkles. Exposure to the sun, quality of diet, lifestyle and environmental factors may cause premature skin aging.

Skin peels exfoliate and rejuvenate the face. Popular facial skin peels include the glycolic acid peel, TCA peel and Obagi blue peel. Cosmetic skin peels remove surface layers of damaged skin to reveal new, more youthful looking skin beneath. A chemical solution is applied to the skin and this causes the top layer of the skin to peel off. The new skin revealed by the facial peel is usually smoother and less wrinkled than it was before. If you are concerned with the appearance of your skin, want to remove facial blemishes, and reduce the signs premature aging caused by smoking and exposure to the sun, you should consider a facial peel to rejuvenate your skin and help you to look years younger.

There is a huge range of products available to purchase from shops and beauty salons, and more aggressive treatments are available at specialist clinics. The milder skin peeling products simply exfoliate the skin to revive a dull looking complexion. Strong skin peel treatments literally do make the old skin peel away from the face, requiring up to 10 days after treatment for peeling to be complete. You could buy a home peel kit or visit a clinic for a deep face peel. You should consult a therapist who has been suitably trained in the application of skin peels for advice on the most appropriate treatment for your skin, and the results you are hoping to achieve.

Make sure you discuss with your therapist exactly what you can expect after treatment, and how long it will take for your skin to recover from the peel. Your skin may change colour and be red and swollen. You should take extra care after a skin peel to protect your skin from the sun, wear a wide brimmed hat and use face cream with an Sun Protection Factor of at least 20. Risks associated with chemical peels include infection and skin colour changes. Scarring of the skin has also reported.
