One service offered by compounding pharmacies that is often overlooked is the ability to create compounds that address the ravages of aging. Our services go beyond mere medication and extend into creating medical compounds that also serve to rejuvenate your skin and restore your youthful appearance. When it comes to cosmetic concerns, the ability to custom design topical medications that deliver results to where it’s needed most is one of the things that makes compounding pharmacies stand out.
Cosmeceuticals: A Solution For Aging Skin
We gain many benefits as we age in the form of wisdom, maturity, and a wealth of experience that we can share with others and use to navigate life. While these are oft-lauded upsides of aging, the wear and tear on our bodies and the visual ravages of age are lamented just as loudly. Crow’s feet, age spots, reduced elasticity in our skin, and laugh lines are just a few of the results of aging that are thought of as inevitable.
Cosmeceuticals: A Restorative In The Face Of Aging Skin
While the aging of our skin is a process that is inevitable as the tides, its effects can be reduced, and its advance slowed. Recent research that reveals the biotechnical aspects of elasticity loss and the onset of wrinkling has unmasked many of the villains that steal youthfulness from our appearance. These include:
- Damage from sun, cold, or wind
- Stress
- Smoking
- Fatigue
- Poor nutrition
- Soaps, detergents, make-up, and other environmental hazards
Throughout our lives, these elements wage an endless war against the health and elasticity of our skin. Each of these can be avoided or limited to some degree, but the process of aging will catch up with us in time. Compounded cosmeceuticals are one way of holding back the onset of age-based imperfections in our skin.
Custom Formulated Solutions For Everyone’s Skin
When you buy cosmetic supplies off the shelf, you’re investing in a generic compound that may or may not address the specific concerns your body faces. Everyone is unique, with their own skin type, damage, and range of features that need to be taken into consideration when a compound is created. The substances produced by your compounding pharmacist are specifically designed to match your needs and work with your skin type while addressing your cosmetic concerns.
This specialized care ensures that you receive immediate results, as well as results that will improve as you continue using the mixture. Cosmeceuticals are formulated using the results of comprehensive scientific research and ingredients that have been rated as being suitable for use in pharmaceutical practices. Rashes, inflammation, skin irritation, redness, and more can all be addressed with the help of your compounding pharmacist.
