The awareness of 2021 among the population when it comes to anti-aging and facial skin care in particular, is the highest it has ever been.

Along with endless sources of knowledge, on the Internet, in Israel and abroad, today there is a complete fit and a relationship tailored to the public's need to treat skin lesions and maintain a healthy skin appearance and what currently exists in the cosmetics market and the world of dermatology. The main and most active - retinol.



What is retinol for clarification?


The medical term retin A, is the name of an active compound of vitamin A whose effectiveness and benefit and even its derivatives, for facial skin and delaying signs of aging of all kinds, are known and research proven over the years



.


The benefits of the ingredient are many, suitable for a wide range of problematic skin cases, and also not, even when we want to improve or preserve the existing, for example to encourage collagen and elastin, or alternately reduce the secretion of sebaceous skin, blur too open pores, or delay signs of aging For drugs containing different retinoid compounds, each depending on the case to be treated.

Retinol comes in the form of ointments and creams, gels and also orally (taking pills) and is definitely an active and among the most effective drug on the skin, certainly when we talk about collagen encouragement, prevention of wrinkles and their disappearance, reduction of milk secretions and pores, during active acne and post-acne .

The important questions

Vitamin C or retinol?


The ingredients listed here are all active, but at different levels, and also for the benefit of all kinds of skin texture enhancement, from moisturizing (hh) to lightening, but work in different mechanisms.

For the purpose of the example;

Both vitamin C and retinol have a lightening effect on the skin and yet, retinol does this in the form of gentle peeling of the cells while vitamin C works in a slightly different and less active mechanism, and both can be seen combined in medical treatments to maximize each other.

There are other preparations like salicylic acid whose combination with retinol has a synergistic effect.



Do regular creams work?


It is important to understand that the ingredient itself is an active ingredient that can only be prescribed by a doctor in its pure form along with dosages and detailed instructions for use according to the patient's professional diagnosis as it is a high concentration drug whose side effects and therapeutic consequences require medical follow-up.

In recent years, however, quite a few derivatives and sub-derivatives have been developed that work for happy and safe use in cosmetics on the shelves at pharma and among beauticians, these contain retinoids (retinol) in low concentrations, significantly less effective and hence side effects will work, so it is a safe compound to use.

The relatively low concentration of the active ingredient will work gradually and gently compared to the medicinal product and will cause at least side effects.



Worth the investment?


I would love to convey the message that this is an excellent ingredient, one of the recommended, for use on the skin due to the much activity and the reversible change it brings to the skin, it is important to understand that maybe his PR (like that of his well known drug Roocotan) is reluctant Controlled and responsible, whether under medical prescription and accompanied by a dermatologist, the results of treatment whether it is to delay and prevent the aging process, reduce active acne, and post-acne - all worth the side effects as long as we treat them properly - there is no substitute for this active ingredient in vitamin .

Pay attention

It is suitable for everyone, but


does not think there is someone "who is not allowed" because it is indeed approved for use by everyone, but yes;

The dosage here is very important so when it comes to very sensitive or thin skin, I will note that the use must be in low percentages, medically accompanied, gradually, because it is ultimately a component whose use can lead to certain skin problems.

You can give a certain dose, wait for the reaction and continue according to it, including shelf preparations, always check in a small area, not close to the eyes, wait for the reaction of the skin and from there you can continue.



Important Information


In Israel and in the world in general, there is a standardization of the Ministry of Health on the cosmetics industry, which should and should be careful not to violate the law regarding the quantities and dosage of active ingredients found in preparations, therefore;

Be sure to be educated that a product that can be purchased without a prescription or any medical guidance may result in use not based on precise guidelines for inflammation in the worst case or skin irritation.

It is known that there is an increase in side effects in these cases.

For example, when a dermatologist prescribes the use of retin-A (a martinol-derived acid), the patient is given precise instructions on how to use it, when and under what conditions.



Accurate use


should be attempted on an exposed area and test sensitivities in a hidden place.

Starting use gradually is also a recommendation that is important to listen to and this is in order to check the level of irritation and side effects of the skin.

It is important not to make attempts at irritated, injured skin or during any stages of pregnancy. "



There are dermo cosmetic products that definitely unequivocally affect and improve skin quality and skin texture.

There are many cases in dermatology where dermo cosmetic products help and improve in the healing and improvement processes of the skin.

For example, ingredients such as niacinamide b3 or ceramides, pentanol or all kinds of antibacterial ingredients found in therapeutic skin care products, in my opinion are simply helpful in most cases for improving the quality and texture of the skin.

There is a lot and you need to know what to put your hand on depending on the actual need of the problem you want to solve.

Do not go crazy with retinol



Be careful not to purchase quantities of products.

There is no need to go into the pharm and get out of your way.

There is so much on offer in the market and really there are quite a few improving preparations, at the same time try to stay focused on purchasing what needs to be spotted and not overdoing it, and exaggerate the grooming routine as even extreme actions on the other side may not benefit the skin.
