Skincare and aesthetic medicine

The number of people turning to aesthetic medicine every day is increasing. Touch-ups of all kinds are increasingly appreciated by people of all ages. Before choosing these "extreme" remedies, or as an alternative to them, one can actually take a different path. 

The skincare sector has indeed made significant strides. The best brands contain some ingredients directly from the aesthetic medicine field, allowing "simple" creams that are applied at home to replicate an effect similar to what one would achieve through a few injections. 

In this article, we discover which ingredients are involved and how they can transform our skin simply and with a guaranteed natural effect.

THE INGREDIENTS OF FORMULATIONS DIRECTLY FROM AESTHETIC MEDICINE 

Esapeptide 8 

Peptides are those small "bricks" that make up proteins. These, in turn, constitute, among other things, skin and hair. Peptides are generally used in aesthetic medicine to fill and smooth out the fine lines between the eyebrows or the crow's feet. 

In cosmetics, and therefore in day and night creams, peptides are used to recreate this filling and smoothing effect. These are the creams increasingly referred to as "botox-like." This name comes precisely from the type of action that this type of hexapeptide performs, as it mimics the mechanism of action of botulinum.

Vitamin E

"Not only vitamin E, but also other vitamins with positive effects on the skin, are used in aesthetic medicine for simple injections that give the skin a fresher, younger, and healthier appearance." 

In particular, vitamin E is also used in cosmetic formulations for its effective action against free radicals and its firming and restructuring action.

Glycyrrhetic acid 

"Another ingredient widely used in aesthetic medicine, but less known, is glycyrrhetinic acid. It is an ingredient extracted from licorice and can be used with various benefits for our body." 

"In particular, in aesthetic medicine, and in cosmetic formulations that are inspired by the ingredients used in this sector, it is used for its preventive action against the formation of free radicals (therefore resulting in a slowdown of premature skin aging), for its antiseptic and soothing action."

Hyaluronic acid 

"The most famous among all the ingredients used in aesthetic touch-ups by the surgeon is definitely hyaluronic acid." 

This special ingredient is used to restore volume to certain areas of the face most affected by the passage of time. 

How does it achieve this result? A plumped skin is possible thanks to the very characteristics of the ingredient: viscous and plastic as it is, it manages to reconstruct a structure that allows the skin to remain firm and preserves its hydration, tone, and elasticity.

These were the main ingredients that some brands, including Concilium, include in their products, coming directly from aesthetic medicine, to ensure absolute effectiveness. The result of applying a product is also amplified by the combination with other ingredients present in the formulations.
