Incredible Skin Care Treatments That Are Taking The World By Storm

Exosome Therapy

Exosome therapy is one of the newest kids on the block. It relies on the observation that cells have little messenger chemicals, called extra-cellular vesicles, that transmit information between cells and tell them how to behave. Together, scientists call them the “exosome.”

You sometimes see exosome creams and gels advertised by skin care ingredient manufacturers. These contain essential elements derived from stem cells that adjust the signaling quality in your skin. Instead of allowing older and more dysfunctional vesicles to dominate the biological conversation, these introduce younger voices to the mix, changing how skin cells behave. 

People like this treatment (even though it is incredibly new) because of its ability to boost collagen production and improve skin texture.

Peptide Skincare Products

We’re also seeing a move towards more peptides in skincare products after new science emerged showing their profound impact. Peptides are essentially just short chains of amino acids that the skin uses in its rejuvenation process. It sounds like a simple intervention, but applying these to the skin’s surface can make it appear more youthful and attractive, enhancing repair and collagen production. 

Many people are currently using copper peptides with HA. These combine copper atoms to enable them to penetrate deeper into the skin and activate the collagen-producing layers deeper in the structure. 

Peptides are now found in most skincare products available from leading brands. However, you’ll want to check that your product specifically contains them. If it doesn’t, you can always buy a separate serum to complement your routine. 

LED Light Masks

The growth in popularity of LED light masks is also striking and something that is changing the way people think about their skin care. Before, the idea was to put as many products on the skin as possible. But with these new masks, that’s all changing. LED systems now have a lot of science to back up their effectiveness, with studies hinting that specific red light wavelengths have powerful, redness-reducing effects on the skin, making them useful for people with post-acne erythema and rosacea, which are usually quite challenging to treat. 

LED light mask therapy usually takes the form of masks from various brands. These incorporate dozens of LEDs into their structure, targeting different effects, like reducing inflammation or combating acne. Many have bendable superstructures, allowing you to mould and shape them to your face and chin as you wish. You can also get neckbands along with some products for enhanced activation and additional coverage.

Cryotherapy Facials

Cryotherapy facials are another option. Usually available at a local skin care clinic, these apply cold to specific areas of the skin, targeting problems like puffiness around the eyes and cheeks. 

This technique is popular among athletes and beauty gurus. It is fast becoming a mainstream pick and something that is becoming more popular among the elites and Hollywood circles. 

Biologic Skincare

Advances in technology are also making personalized biologic skincare a reality. These techniques aim to tailor products to specific genes or microbiomes to enhance effects. 

Biologics recognize that everyone’s skincare is different and that people don’t always respond the same way to treatment. As such, formulations target things like genetic predispositions and microbiome imbalances for more effective results. 

Of course, this approach is costlier than using standard serums. But the new effects can be significant. Many users say that their skin feels revitalized like never before and better able to deal with environmental challenges, like cold weather or pollution. 

This approach to skin care is still in the early stages and there is obviously a long way to go before truly tailored options are available on store shelves. But it is a start, and those wanting to be ahead of the curve should investigate it where possible.

Skin Boosters

Many people’s skin suffers from a lack of hydration. For various reasons, it doesn’t retain moisture as much as it should, leading to dryness, flaking, and stiffness. 

That’s where HA injectables can help. Usually only available at clinics, these plump the skin, making it less prone to sagging and enhancing its elasticity. Over time, this action reduces fine lines and wrinkles, and can even encourage the skin to produce more of its own moisturizing agents. 

Korean Glass Skin Routines

Then there are so-called Korean “glass skin” routines. These approaches attempt to combine several interventions to produce more attractive skin that looks perfectly clear and smooth. 

Getting skin to this stage often takes several years of consistent effort. But the people who achieve it often enjoy some of the best skin in the world. 

Koreans usually focus on a multistep process that involves layering lightweight products. Much of what they use are serums containing seaweed extracts and retinol-containing oils. Combining these over long periods and reapplying throughout the day gives skin a glass-like appearance, making it look plump, shiny and defect-free. 

Non-Surgical Skin Tightening

Finally, there is a group of people trialing so-called non-surgical skin tightening. These methods use non-invasive techniques, like high-intensity focused ultrasound to penetrate the skin’s deeper layers and stimulate collagen production. 

Experts tout this approach for all sorts of skin complaints, including sagging, lack of facial contouring, and loose skin. The technique works because it targets the deeper layers, unlike most topicals, permitting a broader spectrum of effects. Skin doesn’t look as tired as before. 

Furthermore, this type of skin tightening doesn’t involve any surgical procedures. Ultrasound simply passes through the skin, providing cells with the stimulation they require to plump up and behave differently. 

So there you have it: some of the incredible skincare treatments taking the world by storm. Which will you try?
