Wrinkles

Wrinkles; those dreaded ridges and creases on the skin surface, the first signs of aging and a much dreaded effect not looking after the skin throughout the years. As we grow older the skin starts to lose it natural stores of collagen and elastin and since these are the two main components of the skin that keeps it taut and firm, the results are wrinkles and sagging skin.

The skins cell production slows down and the skins own ability to replace old skin cells with new rejuvenated skins cells is decreased and the skin loses color and shape.

Wrinkles are caused by many factors; internal and external:

The first and most obvious reason for those dreaded map of lines on the skins surface is thanks to chronological aging: with age the skins becomes thinner, the skin cells are less sticky and the effectiveness of the barrier functions allow moisture be released instead of being stored. The skin slowly begins to dry out, the cells divide slowly and the skin is not able to repair itself as before. Not only dies the skin become thinner and more sensitive but it also loses its ability to produce collagen so the skin dries out even more. Important nutrients are also lost, the subcutaneous layer of fat cells gets smaller and the skin deteriorates. Wrinkles, wrinkles and more wrinkles.

Aging effects of the sun and wrinkles

Exposure to ultraviolet light, UVA and UVB account for more than 90% of premature skin aging. Most of the damage done to the skin by overexposure to the sun occurs by the age of 20.

The total amount of exposure to the sun during a lifetime is what determines the total amount of damage done to the skin.

When the dermis is exposed to sunlight it causes the breakdown of collagen at a faster rate than the normal aging process. The UVA ands UVB rays break down the collagen fibres and cause the abnormal accumulation of elastin. When the elastin accumulates it produces enzymes called metalloproteinases in large quantities. The metalloproteinases are there to remodel the sun damaged skin by manufacturing and renewing the collagen in the dermis. However sometime this process does not always work how it should and instead of rebuilding the collagen it actually breaks it down causing a disorganisation of the collagen fibres known as solar scars. If this process is repeated frequently (when the skin is regularly over exposed to the suns harmful rays), wrinkles begin to develop.

Hormones and Wrinkles

It is thought that various hormonal changes have a result on the state of our skin, especially during menopause or a decreased production of oestrogen.

Free Radicals and Wrinkles

Free radicals are atoms or groups of atoms that contain an uneven number of electrons and are formed when oxygen interacts with certain molecules. Once these highly reactive radicals have formed they start a chain reaction that begin to damage important cellular components such as DNA and the cell membranes, and these cells begin to die off. The genetic material of the cells are damaged , and the free radicals break down the collagen of the skin by producing overactive metalloproteinases and the result is the horrible unwanted – wrinkles. The major causes are exposure to UV radiation, smoking and air pollution.

Facial muscles and Wrinkles

Our faces are made up with a fantastic network of muscles and nerves that allow us to demonstrate the different expressions we show on our faces. The most typical areas that begin showing the signs of time and expressions are the famous “crows feet” lines that form around the corners of the eyes and the frown lines between the eyebrows and on the forehead. The muscles are constantly contracting in these regions making these the areas that start showing the signs of time.

Gravity and Wrinkles

Unfortunately the effects of time age and gravity the skin begins to loosen and sag, especially on the face where the skin is thinner; mostly around the bottom of the eyes and the eyelids.

Other factors related to a poorly managed lifestyle also influence the state of the skin making the wrinkles, discoloration and dehydration visibly obvious. These include smoking, air pollution, poor diet and little rest.

Dealing with facial wrinkles

There are a numerous ways to prevent and treat wrinkles and reduce the physical appearance of these unwanted lines.

Whatever the personal situation may be, one can choose from natural products to harsher surgical procedures to eliminate the dreaded “lines of time”. We start with the most obvious and best method of decreasing the facial wrinkles; the preventative maintenance treatment.

Firstly, stay out of the sun! Tanning and over exposure to the suns harmful rays causes wrinkles and early aging of the skin.

Not only wrinkles but skin cancer is a risk when you expose yourself to the suns harmful rays. Look after your skin by using high factor sun protection and use self tanners to create desired bronzed look. Secondly, incorporate fresh leafy green vegetables and brightly colored fruit to eliminate free radicals. Red wine, green tea and pure cocoa are also natural anti oxidants. Thirdly it is recommended that one should use good anti aging products in a good skincare programme.

Ingredients like co-enzyme Q10, vitamin E and Hyaluronic Acid are elements that help smooth, firm, repair and lift sagging skin.

Other wrinkle reducing procedures include facial plastic surgery that range from simple treatments to complicated surgical procedures. Minimally-invasive procedures include the famous botox injection, implants and other injected substances that reduce the appearance of wrinkles. Reconstructive, plastic surgery and cosmetic surgery are longer more painful procedures that focus on reconstructing and enhancing the physical appearance by surgical removing or altering tissue defects. The latter procedures are painful, require time for recuperating and are irreversible.

BIOSKINREJUVENATION™ for Wrinkle Treatment

BIOSKINREJUVENATION™ is made with the natural secretions from land snails (Helix Aspersa Müller). It is the same substance that it uses to quickly repair its own skin and shell when damaged. It is a viscose liquid that is made into an odorless white cream.

Intense research and careful analysis of the mucin secreted by the snail has shown that it contains the necessary biological activators that enhance the skins growth factors which in turn reproduce brand new skin cells. It also contains antimicrobial peptides, natural anti- inflammatories, immune modulating glycoproteins that tightly bind divalent captions such as copper II. This activity also helps the production of glycosaminoglycans which are responsible for holding the water molecules in normal healthy skin. The skin is then also able to regenerate the elastin and collagen levels making skin look healthy again.

Unlike harsh chemicals and physical processing typically used to produce protein supplements, which unfortunately denatures (destroys) the natural configuration of proteins yielding something that is not completely absorbed and utilized by the human body, the proteic secretions of the snail are used as they are naturally, to add it our cream. The substance is collected and processes in a manner that may denature them. The adequate procedures allow for the bioavailability of the living cells to be thoroughly preserved.

Topical application of BIOSKINREJUVENATION™ cream, night and day for a period of 2 months yields:

Decrease in wrinkles depth

Increase in collagen and elastin from within the deep layers of the skin, giving skin firmness

Improvement of the water holding capacity of healthy skin, reducing sagging and fragility

Reduction of age spots, dark pigmentation, hyperpigmentation, melasma

Relief of topic dermatitis

Restoration of the natural skin color of those affected by hyperpigmentation, in people of all skin colors including

African, Asian & Latin.

In simpler words; BIOSKINREJUVENATION™ cream helps your skin regenerate itself! It is additionally anti-microbial, thereby helping to avoid skin infections. There is nothing like it! And you can use it for treating a wide variety of skin blemishes: wounds, burns, sunburns, and rashes, cracked and dry skin. It works excellently on post-surgical scars. It is also ideal for wrinkles, age spots, abrasions, acne, athlete's foot, boils, chilblains, diabetic sores, diaper rash, infected nails, insect bites/stings, skin allergies, skin ulcers and stretch marks with incredible results. It is just fantastic for helping the skin to recover itself. Wounds heal with minimal scarring while it also helps shrink old scars.
