How to slow skin ageing using active skincare

Ageing skin experiences visible and structural changes, resulting in thinner, dryer skin, fine lines, pigmentation, and a weakened barrier. Medical-grade skincare such as Alumier, offers ingredients to prevent and reverse these changes, making a significant difference in skin health and appearance.

Thinner Skin & Wrinkles

As collagen and elastin decline with age, the skin becomes thinner and loses elasticity, leading to sagging and wrinkles. Retinoids, a form of Vitamin A, are essential in medical-grade products, helping to stimulate collagen production and enhance skin firmness over time. This promotes a smoother and plumper appearance.

Increased Dryness

Ageing skin struggles to retain moisture, making it dry and rough. Alumier hyaluronic acid and ceramides restore and maintain hydration by drawing water to the skin's surface and reinforcing the skin barrier. This helps keep the skin supple and hydrated, counteracting the rough texture.

Uneven Pigmentation

UV exposure, hormonal changes, and natural aging processes often result in pigmentation, dark spots, and an uneven skin tone. Ingredients like Vitamin C, tretinoin & hydroquinone in medical-grade products reduce pigmentation, leading to a more uniform complexion.

Weakened Barrier & Slow Healing

As skin ages, it becomes more prone to inflammation and damage as seen in rosacea, and slower to heal due to reduced cell turnover. Peptides in active skincare, and tretinoin can help by supporting cellular repair, while ceramides repair the skin barrier, reducing the risk of further skin damage and promoting resilience.

Supporting Skin Health Daily

Antioxidants such as Vitamin C in active skincare protect against environmental damage, while daily SPF application prevents further UV-induced ageing. Together, these medical grade ingredients help improve skin texture, tone, and elasticity giving a youthful, glowing complexion.
