For thousands
of years, we have been looking for a fountain of youth that would break the
cycle of aging and deterioration. It is not only about perfect skin – But about keeping the mind and body healthy
and active for as long as possible.
The quest for
a magical wand that would help us remain young forever has consumed mankind
throughout history and across many cultures. The search for a fountain of youth
has given birth to various myths over time.
Nobody likes
seeing the little signs of aging. So, we spend thousands of dollars a year on
fancy-pants creams, treatments and surgeries to help us look and feel young.
But, despite our efforts, none of these products or procedures can actually
stop time or make any major difference in the appearance of your skin.
It is no
secret that repeated exposure to sun or tanning beds causes wrinkles and skin
damage. The harmful, carcinogenic rays of the sun destroy collagen, elastin,
and produces atypical skin cells that can’t act like young skin. More than
that, unprotected sun exposure strips your skin from important substances, such
as lecithin and ceramides, leaving it more vulnerable to sun, smoke, and
pollution.
How your skin
ages and wrinkles is a complex series of events. Wrinkles as well as many other
skin problems such as acne or blemishes are caused by a wide range of factors
from exposure to the environment,
toxins, pollution and smoking to poor nutrition and sun damage.
Again,
wrinkles caused by aging are genetically programmed to appear over time. As we
get old, our body produces less fibroblast, collagen, and elastin, which causes
the skin to lose its elasticity. Gender wise, women seem to age faster than men
due to the estrogen levels in thinner bodies.
The hormone
levels change during menopause, affecting the elasticity and texture of the
skin. Skin becomes thinner and doesn’t bounce back when you pinch it. The parts
of the face you use the most get more wrinkles faster than the others. More
than that, as facial muscles lose elasticity over time, your skin sags.
As we age, our
skin cells do not get as many vital nutrients as they used to. Whether it’s
because of stress factors, excessive exposure to the sun or our lifestyles.
Studies have
shown that the older the skin gets, the less oxygen it receives. That happens
because blood flow in our body gets slower with every passing year. Oxygen not
only improves blood flow, but it can also counteract low oxygen levels that
lead to slow cell activity. As a result, skin cell metabolism increases, making
cell membranes more flexible.
So, healthy
circulation can help keep our skin young and vibrant. However, the cells need
oxygen to thrive and function. The fact that we breathe air does not promise
that our skin is receiving enough oxygen.
As the amount
of oxygen in your blood streams increases, every cell in your body is saturated
with 100% oxygen, accelerating body’s natural healing process and keeping the
skin young and rejuvenated.
Hyperbaric
oxygen therapy (HBOT) might just be the best way to stay young and healthy as
long as possible. In HBOT, patients breathe 100% pure oxygen in a clinical or
wellness settings. The treatment is administered in pressurized chambers, where
patients breathe pure 100% oxygen under an atmospheric pressure up to three
times higher than normal.
By HBOT oxygen
is dissolved and forced deep into the tissues. The process pushes oxygen beyond
the red blood cells and into the blood plasma, lymph, and interstitial fluid.
As a result, HBOT allows oxygen to reach areas where the circulation is usually
blocked or diminished. Now, the oxygen-rich blood can get to damaged tissues,
letting the body jumpstart the healing process.
Here are some
facts one may want to know about hyperbaric oxygen therapy and what it can do
to your skin and body.
*
Increases collagen and elastin production
*
Increases antioxidant production
*
Enhances the bodies immune system and ability to fight infection
*
Detoxifies the body (side effects from air pollution, toxic food etc.)
*
Removes free radicals
*
Reduces swelling
*
Acts as an anti-inflammatory
*
Increases neuronal energy metabolism in the brain
*
Can improve concentration and cognitive function
*
Wakes up sleeping (idling) brain cells that are metabolizing enough to stay
alive.
HBOT is
painless and gentle, effortless yet effective and the results are visible
immediately. The benefits of hyperbaric
oxygen therapy expands well beyond skin rejuvenation.
When you begin
to add the numerous benefits hyperbaric oxygen therapy have on your health and
combine them with the impact it has in stimulating collagen production and
improve skin elasticity, it is clear that HBOT, in fact, has anti-aging
properties that keeps you and your skin looking young.
