Not using a product with Vitamin A (aka retinol)? A top doc implores you to start. . .unless you’re into wrinkles
Look in the mirror. You already know that what’s really important and vital isn’t visible on the surface. Your mother told you that. But she might not have told you this:The skin cells you're looking at in the mirror are all dead—they’re has-beens. Yesterday’s news. They served their purpose and now they’re useless. The cells that are really important reside deep in the epidermis and the dermis, way beneath the surface you can see. It’s there that the skin cells renew themselves and produce collagen and elastin, which give your skin its elasticity, firmness and vitality. Keeping those skin cells active and functioning, is the key to diminishing wrinkles, evening out skin tone, and making the skin look more radiant.
So how do you get to those cells? The only skincare ingredient that's been proven to penetrate deeply into the skin Vitamin A, also known as retinol or retinoic acid. You can find it in prescription-strength Retin-A. Or over the counter in my own ZO Skin Health Ossential Daily Power Defense ($175; zoskinhealth.com).
