Be Safe About Vitamin A

by Abbie Leave a Comment

Retin-A stinks. Retinol stinks. There! I said it, yes I did, and I stand by those opinions. They are formed from over a decade of research, professionally treating several different skin conditions, my friends and family and those of thousands of clients!

A good friend of mine from high school (despite my frowns, tears and eye rolls) became a devoted glycolic acid, TCA peel-loving, and exfoliation junkie. Unfortunately, today she now has VERY sensitive, thin, dry, and fragile skin. (Thank God she has ME to fix it!)

To many, the cheer of “Peel! Peel! Peel!” continues to be the siren song on the path to better, brighter, youthful skin. I beg you to let it fall on deaf ears and choose not to follow that road-oh-so-traveled. Do you recall the episode of Sex and the City when Samantha gets a peel?

Retinaldehyde is the only form of Vitamin A proven to stimulate collagen production that rivals Retin-A, though,unlike Retin-A, it is effective and safe, even for rosacea and during pregnancy. It does not cause inflammation or skin sensitivity and is completely stable!

The retinaldehyde serums used in my practice are on the cutting edge, deeply researched and refined. The Retinaldehyde serums I recommend to all of my clients, allow the skin to remodel itself through increased nutrition, immune repair and collagen and elasticity production and longevity.

Bottom line… Vitamin A is amazing but ONLY in a certain form and used in a certain way!

My Approach

My scientific approach revolves around identifying and addressing my client’s needs. Sometimes, the issues can be internal. Internal wellness plays a significant role in skin health. Many spas and product lines do not take a holistic approach in order to target internal balancing. With the right products in my skin arsenal, I am able to target several key skin needs: detoxing and repair, healing and nourishment, and balancing and protection. Rather than addressing skin issues externally, I take a corrective approach to your skincare combating and mitigating skin damage from the inside-out.
