Understanding the Difference Between Anti-Aging & Pro-Aging

Sep 24

We all want to stop the aging process, but let’s be realistic—I don’t work miracles in the treatment room! However, I can help you age gracefully by starting preventative treatments early. The goal is to work with your skin, not against it. That’s why it’s important to adopt a pro-aging mindset, focusing on maintaining healthy, radiant skin rather than trying to halt time.

At Skin by Cynthia, I offer advanced treatments and chemical peels that help with cell turnover, diminish sun damage, dehydration, and dull skin— all common signs of aging. These treatments focus on reversing damage and strengthening the skin's natural ability to repair itself. I can help you embrace a graceful aging process with progressive, not aggressive, approaches.

Professional Treatments for Pro-Aging

Chemical Peels: I offer a variety of peels that are applied progressively, never aggressively. These target aging concerns by increasing cell turnover, improving texture, hyperpigmentation, clogged pores, & more.
Peel Alternatives: For those looking for chemical-free options, I offer peels like the BioHerb 50 and the Green Sea Peel (coming mid-October), advanced resurfacing treatments—a true poly-pharmacy to nourish, exfoliate, and rejuvenate the skin.
Home Routines: After your treatments, I’ll help hand-pick homecare routines to continue the benefits. The new professional Korean skincare lines I carry are formulated with powerful ingredients that prevent and correct aging at the cellular level.

Advanced Skincare Technology

Corthe: One of the standout Korean lines I offer is Corthe, a professional product range formulated with CTS™ (Corneotherapeutic System). This system uses Human Growth Factors (HGF) in liposomes to promote absorption deep into the skin, activating cell regeneration and strengthening the skin’s barrier. Corneotherapy itself was introduced in the 1960s by a dermatologist and focuses on restoring the skin’s protective barrier while promoting long-term skin health.
Exosomes: Exosomes are nano-sized messengers that facilitate cellular communication, aiding in tissue regeneration and repair. Products like the Vitaran Exosome PDRN Dual Serum are anti-aging powerhouses that contain exosomes, which promote faster tissue regeneration, wound healing, and improve skin texture. This serum also features PDRN, which stimulates DNA formation, alongside Niacinamide, which helps brighten skin and improve hyperpigmentation, and Adenosine, which reduces fine lines and wrinkles.
Beta-Glucan: Another incredible ingredient in the products I offer is Beta-Glucan, found in the Neogenesis Beta Glucan Serum. Derived from the cell walls of Shiitake mushrooms, Beta-Glucan boosts skin cell growth, increases collagen and elastin production, and deeply hydrates the skin. Unlike other drugstore hyaluronic acid serums, it penetrates deep into the dermis, providing long-lasting hydration and repair. Even great for those with eczema, psoriasis, or rosacea flare-ups.
