Ways to keep your skin young and fresh

The largest organ of the body is skin. When our skin is healthy, it works hard to protect us. But when its health is compromised, its ability to work effectively as a barrier is impaired. Skin controls moisture loss, retains fluid balance and adjusts body temperature. Because of the fact that skin beauty and health represent the perception of overall “health” and “well-being” in humans, several advanced anti-aging tactics have been established over the course of past few years. This article intends to discuss for you a few advanced anti-aging techniques that dermatologists have in hand these days. Let’s start with;

What Is Skin Rejuvenation?

Skin rejuvenation is a wide-ranging term including methods of uplifting your skin to help it look younger, healthier, smoother and firmer. Skin rejuvenation techniques include noninvasive processes such as laser resurfacing and chemical peels, as well as slightly invasive treatments such as micro-needling and Botox injections, etc.

Skin rejuvenation products and treatments address skin issues such as:

• Sun-damaged skins

• Wrinkles (both dynamic wrinkles and unmoving wrinkles)

• Scars from acne, injury or chickenpox

• Freckles, darkened skin, and Hyperpigmentation

• Dull or uneven skin tone

• Loose skin

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT)

This therapy lets patients breathe in a pressurized pure oxygen chamber. Recently oxygen has been found playing an important role in skin rejuvenation, improving skin complexions and treating photoaging skin. Pure oxygen amazingly promotes cellular health when applied through the hyperbaric rejuvenation tank. Revitalizing of the cells require plenty of fuel, and they naturally start a healing process when given the sufficient energy.

The benefits of oxygen therapy for skin rejuvenation, in particular, are as follows;

• Heals skin

• Decreases inflammation

• Increases circulation

• Gives skin a full desirable look

It accomplishes its tasks by possibly constraining various pathways and processes such as the VEGF, HIF1-α, MMP-2 & MMP-9, and neutrophil infiltrations, which in its active state are involved directly with encouraging skin angiogenesis. Oxygen will regenerate your cells themselves when it is distributed and measured correctly. And this means that the aging process is being reversed veritably! Of course, it won’t happen overnight, as the process of rejuvenating varies depending on your genetics.

Preventing aging with stem cell rejuvenation therapy

Reduced functioning of effective stem cell populations plays an important role in aging. It is characterized by dysfunction of organs, organ systems, the whole organism, and tissues. Stem cell-based therapies have been broadly used for their effectiveness in repairing and regenerating different types of organs and tissues in plastic and cosmetic surgeries. The procedure involves the clinical application of stem cells of various types. Dermatologists are turning to stem cells to improve skin turnover, fight wrinkles, and overall appearance.

Dr. Michele Green, board-certified dermatologist and RealSelf contributor in New York City says that “These signal the body’s cells to rejuvenate and may result in younger-looking skin”.

Stem cells have antioxidant properties and have proven to be applicable in different areas of cosmetic surgeries like skin rejuvenation, face lipoatrophy, body contouring, and breast enhancement.
