Retinyl Palmitate Vitamin A
One of the most
Effective Anti-Aging Skin Care Treatment
Retinyl
palmitate, a form of vitamin A, is becoming an increasingly popular
anti-aging ingredient as an alternative to tretinoin and retinol
because it is a gentler, more mild vitamin A option.
Retinyl Palmitate vitamin A treatments have demonstrated similar
success when compared to retinol in rejuvenating aging skin.
Reintyl Palmitate is less irritating to the skin
than the other forms of vitamin A.
Although retinyl palmitate treatments are not able
to be absorbed into the skin as efficiently as tretinoin, they can be
used at higher concentrations without irritating the skin which
makes this form of vitamin A a particularly good option
for sensitive skin types.
Many retinyl palmitate products include an ingredient that will help
promote the skin's ability to help the skin absorb and "deliver" the
vitamin A to the cells such as liposome.
Retinyl
palmitate shares the
rejuvenating effects of the other vitamin A's by:
- stimulating skin
repair
- increasing collagen production
- increasing skin thickness
- improving elasticity
- improving skin texture
- improving skin tone
- reducing the occurrences of blemishes
- decreasing enlarged pores
As an added bonus, retinyl palmitate also diminishes acne outbreaks,
sharing the charactertistics of both tretinoin and retinol as an
effective acne fighter!
The "Vitamin A's"- Retinol,
Tretinoin, and Retinyl Palmitate
which are forms or derivatives of Vitamin A are considered
highly
effective in the treatment
of aging skin.
Preliminary studies have indicated that Retinyl Palmitate achieves
similar rejuvenating results as retinol but is considered to be much
gentler skin treatment and is particularly recommended for sensitive
skin types.
As with any product with a
vitamin A ingredient, your skin's sensitivity to the sun will increase
significantly so be sure to liberally
use your sunscreen!
