STOP using vitamin A derivatives, radio/laser treatment, before it's too late!

[Hey dont talk to me]

this is maximum copage

you expect to inflame the skin, strip layers off and kill cells prematurely long term, without any repercussions ?

i think some people are using vitamin A very regularly, hence their defense of it, and it's to their detriment

why keep using something after your skin improves ? put it back on the shelf for awhile

or yeah you can use it every day until your skin peels back to the stem cell bedrock, sounds great

Most dermatologists agree this is the one thing that can reverse signs of ageing — but one doctor says we're being led into the unknown

Mervyn Patterson, a cosmetic doctor, told Business Insider that retinol 'undoubtedly makes the skin smoother,' but that products are being marketed in an irresponsible way. He shared a number of reasons to be wary of retinol overuse.

this also applies to :

- dermarolling
- chemical peel
- some acids (especially pH < 4)
- enzyme masks (bromelain, papain)

Dermarolling aging faster??

cope op

also you shouldnt overuse retin-a start with 2-3xweek and then maybe ever other day

if you get redness and shit its a bad sign

cope what ? because i can't afford to buy vitamin a ?

 

[ugly-but-optimistic]

it causes shedding (greatly increased cell turnover)
>>
cells get older after each division
>>
long term use implies you will look OLDER not younger

can anyone point out anything wrong with this logic ?

nah, didnt think so, you fucken retards

 

[ugly-but-optimistic]

rule of thumb for everything

if you apply it every day, it had better be fully natural

avoid concentrated naturals and synthetics

use things like these as much as you like :

- aloe vera gel
- cod liver oil (vitamin a wooow)
- castor oil (anti-inflammatory stops hair loss woow)

SOME conc/synthetic are fine for daily use, but you need to find out

because the people selling it aren't incentivised to warn people against frequent use !
