Optimizing your skincare routine with the right combination of ingredients and medical grade products is an excellent solution for anti-aging.
Let's start from the beginning, what are growth factors and peptides?
Growth factors are proteins that are naturally produced by skin cells and are responsible for maintaining homeostasis, which helps keep your skin alive and healthy. What are peptides?
Peptides are amino acids that make up certain proteins needed by the skin. Adding products with peptides to your regimen can stimulate your skin to produce collagen and elastin. Production of more collagen and elastin leads to firmer and younger looking skin.
ZO Skin Health provides the ultimate luxury experience for your skin!
Here are the 3 of the most popular collagen and peptide products:
ZO Growth Factor Serum is derived from plant based growth factors and is clinically proven to improve the overall appearance of fine lines and wrinkles while protecting the skin against future signs of aging. This lightweight gel formula improves firmness and elasticity, restores hydration and improves the overall appearance of the skin (It's like Botox in a bottle!).
Firming serum is a mild, lightweight and tolerable formulation that is indicated for all skin types to reinforce skin health. ZO Firming Serum helps to bind together your skin‘s
epidermal-dermal junction resulting in tight and plump skin. Support the visible improvement in skin elasticity and firmness in as little as 4 weeks.
Wrinkle & Texture is formulated with 0.5% retinol and antioxidants. It helps to support the visible improvement of firmness, texture, tone and aids in reduction of fine lines and wrinkles.
Combining ZO medical grade products along with in clinic treatments are the ultimate DUO for collagen stimulation. Start your new year feeling rejuvenated!!!
In clinic treatments for collagen and elastin stimulation
Scarlet is a minimally-invasive treatment designed to trigger skin tightening effects by delivering radiofrequency (RF) energy into the subdermal tissue through microneedle channels. Each microneedle acts as an electrode that emits pulses of RF energy into the dermis, generating heat that stimulates collagen and elastin production. Treatments are convenient, safe and customizable. By working within the deeper layers of your skin, Scarlet achieves long-lasting results that go beyond topical rejuvenation.
Using laser energy, we are able to safely heat up the deeper layers of the skin, which creates a controlled injury in the tissue. This kick starts the repair process in the dermal layer ultimately tightening the skin, enhancing skin texture, reducing the appearance of fine lines, enlarged pores, and lightening minor pigmentation.
The heat from the laser can also constrict blood vessels, which combats redness and rosacea.
Do not forget to add the neck and décolleté to both of these treatments for a full transformation! Just remember your face begins at the forehead and ends at the chest!
