The Importance of Starting Good Skin Health Early

By maria Uncategorized

Maintaining good skin health in your late 20’s and 30’s is so important. Starting these efforts early can be particularly beneficial in delaying the ageing process and very good for your wallet! In this blog we will look at why it’s important to focus on skin health in your 30’s, and how specialist treatments at Manor Health in Leeds such as, CO2 laser, Laser Skin Tightening Facials,  Plenhyage, and Profhilo can really help to slow down the dreaded ageing process.

Top 4 Reasons for Starting Early

1. Collagen Production Decline: In your 30s, the body’s natural collagen production starts to decline. Collagen is essential for maintaining skin elasticity and firmness. By beginning treatments in your 30’s, you can help boost collagen production and maintain skin resilience.

2. Prevention vs. Correction: It’s easier to prevent signs of ageing than to correct them later. Starting early with appropriate treatments can delay the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin, leading to a more youthful appearance in the long term.

3. Cell Turnover: Skin cell turnover slows down as we age, resulting in duller, less radiant skin. Early intervention can help maintain a higher rate of cell turnover, keeping the skin vibrant and smooth.

4. Sun Damage: Accumulated sun exposure can start showing its effects in our late 20’s to early 30’s. The application of a high quality SPF 50 is essential on a daily basis. Treatments can also help mitigate the damage from UV rays and prevent further photodamage.

Maria Jacobs of Manor Health explains,

“Taking care of your skin in your 20’s and 30’s is crucial for maintaining its health and appearance as you age. I always recommend establishing a good skincare routine early, alongside some of our preventative treatments to help eliminate the need for more extreme measures later in life. Preventing common signs of ageing such as fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging is much easier if you take this approach. Using products with ingredients like antioxidants, retinoids, and peptides can really help maintain skin elasticity and firmness.”

Treatments to Consider

CO2 Laser

How it Works: CO2 laser resurfacing uses carbon dioxide lasers to remove the outer layers of damaged skin, stimulating collagen production in the deeper layers of the skin. 25% of the skin surface is ablated leaving a brand new layer of skin cells with each treatment.

Benefits: This treatment can significantly improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, scars, and hyperpigmentation. It also tightens the skin by promoting new collagen formation.

Considerations: There is 3-10 days downtime with CO2 laser treatments (depending on the depth required), as the skin needs time to heal and regenerate. However, the results can be quite dramatic and long-lasting.

Plenhyage

How It Works: Plenhyage is a polynucleotide-based injectable treatment that helps in skin regeneration and repair. It works by improving the skin’s texture, hydration, and elasticity.

Benefits: It provides deep hydration, reduces fine lines, and enhances the overall texture and tone of the skin. Plenhyage also promotes healing and regeneration at a cellular level.

Considerations: This is a relatively new treatment but is gaining popularity for its effectiveness in skin rejuvenation with minimal downtime.

Profhilo

How It Works: Profhilo is an injectable hyaluronic acid treatment that spreads evenly under the skin to hydrate and stimulate the production of elastin and collagen.

Benefits: It provides intense hydration, improves skin tone, texture, and elasticity, and gives a natural-looking lifting and tightening effect. Profhilo is especially good for areas that have lost their plumpness and firmness.

Considerations: The treatment involves two sessions a month apart and one maintenance treatment every 6 months, making it convenient for those with busy lifestyles.

Laser Skin Tightening Facial

How It Works: This is a non-invasive procedure that helps to smooth and tighten fine lines and wrinkles. The aim of the treatment is to stimulate the production of collagen and new skin cells, creating a tighter, brighter and more youthful appearance.

Benefits: A comfortable and relaxing skin treatment, providing instant rejuvenation with no downtime.

Considerations: The perfect red carpet treatment to make your skin glow. A relaxing but effective clinical facial suitable for all skin types.

Starting skin treatments in your late 20’s and 30s is a proactive approach to maintaining youthful, healthy skin. By addressing the early signs of ageing and promoting collagen production, you can significantly delay the ageing process. Treatments like CO2 laser, Plenhyage, and Profhilo offer various benefits that cater to different skin needs and conditions, helping you maintain a radiant and youthful appearance for longer.
