The Hyalogy skincare line provides deep skin hydration that is more effective and longer lasting
Spending on leisure and luxury is increasing according to recent research and the anti-ageing skincare segment is growing every year. For spa professionals it’s time to do more detailed research to find the best options and latest technology solutions to succeed and be among the best in the growing anti-ageing skincare industry.
At present, we are standing on the edge of a new era in skincare engineering that targets the causes of the ageing process. In order to find better ways to fight visible signs of ageing it is important to understand where the whole problem lies. There are in fact two types of ageing: internal ageing caused by the genes we inherit or by the physiological causes such as decreasing of skin cells activity; and external ageing, which is caused by environmental factors, diet, lifestyle and photoageing as a result
of exposure to the sunrays. Both internal and external ageing mainly affect the deeper layer of the skin or the dermis layer, as well as the skin barrier or epidermis. With age, skin cells tend to become less active and thus the extracellular environment is disturbed.
Delivering active components In order to effectively reduce the ageing process it’s very important to consider delivering active components across the skin barrier to the dermis layer. This at most consists of fibroblasts and extracellular products such as collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid. All three components are extremely important in keeping the skin’s volume and elasticity, although not just any skin care line is able to work effectively on the dermis level.
One of the most innovative and unique approaches in the anti-ageing skincare industry is presented by Japanese luxury skincare company Forlle’d. Japanese professionals at the Forlle’d laboratory are introducing new technology to bypass the skin barrier by reducing the size of the hyaluronic acid molecule to 5 nanometers. Conventionally the hyaluronic acid molecule is 3,000 to 20,000 nanometers so reducing its size allows the molecule to penetrate the epidermal barrier which has a whole range of advantages. First of all low molecular hyaluronic acid penetrates across the skin barrier through the intercellular space without the need of delivery vehicles that may have side effects. Moreover, low molecular hyaluronic acid is a very effective antioxidant and it works as a delivery vehicle itself for non-soluble ions such as calcium, magnesium and other active ingredients. While the conventional hyaluronic acid molecule is able to absorb moisture up to 6,000 times its weight, the low molecular hyaluronic acid has a significantly greater ability to absorb moisture.
Efficiency and accuracy The Forlle’d vision in reducing the signs of ageing is proving very effective. It’s yet another quiet predictable success of Japanese technology that’s always been the icon of efficiency and accuracy. The Forlle’d luxury skincare line Hyalogy provides a range of products including cleansers, lotions, serums, masks, creams and essences.
Forlle’d luxury skincare products are intended only for professional use and are only available in leading beauty salons, spas and clinics. Home care products can also be purchased at these sites and are not available for order online or retail purchase.
Unique benefits Forlle’d offers a number of benefits for a spa professional. Its obvious advantage against most skincare products is its unique, globally patented, 21st century technology that allows spas to obtain scientifically proven, immediate and visible results. Forlle’d products can be ‘mixed and matched’ to create unique treatment programs to meet specific requirements and needs. Forlle’d is proven to be very effective as a pre- and post-operative solution in aesthetic surgery. Besides, any spa owner and professional would appreciate the fact that its highly concentrated formulas are extremely economical and last three times longer than most other skincare products.
Forlle’d regularly participates in different conferences and exhibitions, including the AntiAgeing Medicine World Congress in Monaco and FACE 2013 in London that will be held on 21 to 23 June.
While being already represented in more than 30 countries, Forlle’d has now successfully launched in the United Kingdom, giving British specialists the opportunity to experience one of the best solutions in high-technology professional skincare in the world.
