Pharmacy assistance in the fight for youth
It is not necessary to prepare devices to preserve and restore the youthfulness of the facial skin; you can buy ointments or creams in pharmacies:
- retinoic ointment;
- solcoseryl ointment;
- anti-aging face cream (various brands).
Retinoic ointment is an excellent bactericidal substance for various skin defects: acne, rash, redness, which appear stronger on the skin with age and take longer. All remedies against defects should be applied systematically to them, this ointment is no exception. Clean and healthy skin looks much younger and more beautiful, so you need to eliminate unpleasant symptoms.
Solcoseryl ointment - a drug to improve the penetration of oxygen into tissues. With age, the pores of the skin enter this gas into the epithelial tissue worse, which gradually affects its condition: it becomes dry, flaky, tissues lose tone, look slower. Solcoseryl is applied to the entire face with a thin layer and gently rubbed into the face. Also, for people with sensitive skin, it is permissible to "dilute" the ointment with nourishing or moisturizing cream.
Aging cream is an equally popular and widely advertised remedy, which has the honor of truly indescribable effects: smooth deep wrinkles, tight skin and so on. Almost all cosmetic companies produce a range of skin aging creams that promise a rejuvenating effect. But it should be understood that this is only part of the truth. Age-related facial cosmetics can actually smooth out small wrinkles or smooth out unpleasant imperfections, but no product can nourish the skin with collagen and deal with deep skin folds.
Such creams nourish, renew the supply of vitamins and minerals, but they do not create any "magic". They can be used in conjunction with other methods and when choosing, you need to focus on the specified age.
