Professional Topical use

Vitamin A is a sterile cosmetic for professional topical use, formulated for aesthetic protocols aimed at improving the appearance of skin with visible signs of ageing, acne, uneven texture, stretch marks and scars.

Extended technical information

The technical documentation from Institute BCN describes vitamin A as a dermal antioxidant that helps neutralise free radicals responsible for tissue and cellular damage. It is also credited with a gradual action on wrinkles and fine lines, an improvement in the skin’s hydration level and elasticity, a visible reduction in photo-induced damage and support for a brighter complexion.

The manufacturer states that vitamin A increases cell regeneration and enhances collagen synthesis, giving the skin a more rejuvenated appearance. In addition, its important role in the synthesis of RNA responsible for producing new, healthy cells is highlighted, reinforcing its relevance in professional skin renewal protocols.

The technical sheet also explains that the epidermis is particularly sensitive to vitamin A deficiencies. When these occur, cells may harden, die prematurely and contribute to clogged pores and glands. In this context, retinol acts by exfoliating and unclogging pores, and regulates keratinisation to improve the density, flexibility and overall appearance of the skin.

Institute BCN adds that vitamin A helps restore damaged skin, improves the rough appearance of dry skin or skin with abnormal keratinisation, and may increase mitotic activity, stimulating visible skin regeneration and the removal of dead cells. It is also credited with beneficial cosmetic effects in acne control and in improving damage caused by environmental factors, pollution and sun exposure.

Cosmetic action of vitamin A

Antioxidant action

Vitamin A is presented as an antioxidant active that helps disarm free radicals associated with tissue and cellular damage, reinforcing the skin’s cosmetic defence against visible ageing.

Visible cell renewal

The technical documentation highlights that it increases cell regeneration and helps remove dead cells, promoting skin with improved texture, a more even appearance and a younger-looking finish.

Support for collagen and elasticity

Institute BCN links it to an increase in collagen synthesis and a visible improvement in skin elasticity, making it an interesting active for anti-ageing protocols.

Keratinisation regulation

Retinol acts on skin density and flexibility by regulating keratinisation. This action is especially useful for skin with rough texture, clogged pores or an acne-prone tendency.

Support for acne

The technical sheet attributes beneficial effects on acne control to it, as it helps exfoliate, unclog pores and improve the appearance of skin with visible follicular obstruction.

Support for stretch marks and scars

The manufacturer states that vitamin A helps reduce stretch marks and supports the skin’s natural healing processes, reinforcing its relevance in combined treatments for visible tissue repair.
