What is the pathway to sustainable skin health?
Corneotherapy is a methodology I practice. It is aimed at the recovery of the stratum corneum. It improves the skin’s barrier function and the overall homeostasis of the skin.
We repair: Your stratum corneum (main barrier of skin) is a collection of LIVING cells which self regulate and interact with other layers in the epidermis. Using the methodology of Corneotherapy, any damage made to this layer is corrected using preventative interventions causing no harm to the skin.
We replenish: With nutrients supplied to provide nourishment to cell membranes creating fully functional pathways for the transfer of oxygen, nutrients and waste products
We regenerate: Once the skin barrier is receiving ample nutrients, the epidermal cells can regenerate themselves effectively and we can shift attention to the dermis, targeting the fibroblast cell for the building of connective tissue (collagen).
