What is the cutaneous oxidative stress?


This term refers to harmful impact of free radicals, the daily waste caused by cells, accumulating in skin tissue. Daily aggressions on the skin (pollution, food, tobacco, etc.) lead to an overproduction of free radicals your body cannot eliminate. These free radicals will then oxidize the essential elements of cells (DNA, proteins, lipids). Result? Ageing signs intensify: the skin loses its radiance and elasticity and wrinkles proliferate.
