We all are more aware of the toxins and pollutants that are affecting our bodies and especially our skin condition. Taking care of our skin means different things to different people and determining which are the best skin care products can be difficult because everyone has different types of skin; normal, dry, or oily, and different conditions.

For many people taking care of the skin means a simple splash of water, using any ole soap for cleansing purposes, or using other harse methods for cleaning. In times gone by, most people did not concern themselves with taking care of their skin, or any parts of their bodies, resulting in pre-mature aging, wrinkles, heavy skin lines, etc. When it comes to taking care of the skin, most of us look for easy to use commercial cosmetic products for cleansing, toning and moisturizing our skin. But none of us really have much knowledge as to how much damage these commercial cosmetic products do to our skin.

Today, thanks to Dr. Lisa A. Zdinak, world famous molecular geneticist and cosmetic laser surgeon, we have an answer to our skin problems with the Genetiskin nutraceutical supplements that are vital to the production of youthful, healthy collagen and elastin, as well as critical antioxidants that work synergistically to protect existing collagen and elastin from the ravages of environmental stresses.

“Produce-Preserve-Protect” is the mantra Dr. Zdinak has chosen for the vital ingredients in the ®Genetiskin program. Genetiskin is not a multivitamin. It is a targeted regimen for the skin, designed to produce new collagen, preserve existing collagen, and protect the skin from free-radical attack.

Our skin is made up of three layers, the epidermis, the dermis and the fat layer under the dermis. As we age, the natural changes that occur cause the epidermis to become thicker and the dermis and fat layer to become thinner. As our collagen and elastin reduce, the support it provides to our skin structure breaks down. Furthermore, we no longer produce new collagen and elastin like we did when we were younger, and this can lead to skin changes, such as wrinkles and loss of tone or firmness.

Lifestyle factors such as smoking, bad diet, pollutants, toxins and the exposure to the sun also contributes to changing skin. It has been estimated that up to 80 percent of our wrinkles, loss of elasticity, pigment and texture changes, are caused by exposure to UV light.

Fortunately, there is much we can do to limit the damage of sun exposure and to protect ourselves from premature aging of our skin. There are vitamins for the skin. Ultraceuticals is an Australian made and owned skincare line, and is the number one physician dispensed skincare system in Australia, and now it is available to you exclusively through Precision Aesthetics.

These products were designed to focus on providing solutions for aging, pigmentation and problem skin. With products containing ingredients such as Vitamin A, and it’s derivative, Retinol, Vitamin C, Vitamin E, AHA’s and other natural ingredients, the Ultraceuticals skin care range in packed full of high strength anti-oxidants, sun protection factors and collagen and elastin support and strengtheners, that have been proven to improve the appearance of fine lines, skin texture and tone.

After introducing the very popular products to the U.S. market, Dr. Zdinak says that it is nearly impossible to keep enough supply on hand for the growing needs of her customers. “Since I brought Ultraceuticals to my office in Manhattan, the Vitamin C products and the tinted SPF have become so popular for summer that we sell out of them as soon as the shipment arrives.”

My wife’s best girlfriend is one of the nicest people you would ever meet, or ever have the pleasure of knowing. Because they have been best friends since childhood, we don’t pay any attention to the saggie, baggie eye’s that she has always had. It is unfortunate that such a wonderful lady has gone thru life and had to suffer the embarrassment of having those bags under her eyes since as far back as I can remember.
