Skin ageing is an inevitable part of growing older caused by a combination of different external and internal factors that affect the rate and way in which skin ages. In persons with sensitive skin the symptoms of premature ageing may appear more prevalent as the skin’s ability to protect and regenerate itself is compromised.
In sensitive ageing skin, cells show an energy deficit and as a result, become less able to regulate moisture, renew and protect themselves. This process can occur when the skin’s barrier function is compromised and is worsened by naturally depleting levels of substances like Hyaluronic Acid, which hydrates the skin’s layers, and Coenzyme Q10, which reenergises skin cells to improve their regenerative function.
