Glutathione Skin Regeneration
GLUTATHIONE SKIN REGENERATION
Glutathione, also known as the ‘master antioxidant’, is a tripeptide made from glycine, glutamic acid and cystine, glutathione is naturally produced in our bodies, peaking around the age of 20.
Glutathione skin care is a fantastic option for clients looking to improve skin tone, texture, pigmentation and works well on most skin types.
Skin Brightening – Not to be confused with skin “lightening”, glutathione is renowned for brightening the skin, creating a glow. It encourages the regeneration of cells, which promotes a healthy-looking complexion and even skin tone. Its antiinflammatory properties also improve minor imperfections such as red spots, rough patches and acne. Hyperpigmentation – Glutathione has anti-melanogenic properties because it inhibits the tyrosinase enzyme, making it an alternative to hydroquinone for reducing sun damage, hyperpigmentation and melasma.
Anti-ageing – A 2017 study published in Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology showed that glutathione helps to increase skin firmness and elasticity while smoothing fine lines and wrinkles. It also helps reverse the signs of premature ageing caused by free radical damage.
Antioxidant – Glutathione, a natural compound found in the liver, is often referred to by some as the “mother” of all antioxidants that your body uses to remove free radicals. Free radicals are unstable atoms that can damage cells, causing illness and ageing – enabling conditions such as hyperpigmentation, age spots, sun spots, wrinkles and acne scarring. In addition, glutathione also plays a major role in the health and appearance of your skin by increasing collagen production. You may have heard of the “glutathione glow” which is one of the many benefits that glutathione has to offer from noticeable improvements in skin health.

Glutathione is a peptide found in plants and animals. It contains three amino acids, glutamine, glycine, and cysteine. Glutathione is a powerful antioxidant that helps your liver remove waste or toxins, eliminating poisons such as drugs and pollutants from our bodies. It
is also vital in protecting your body by building and repairing damaged cells and tissue, which can lead to illness. Glutathione is essential for the immune system’s proper functioning, allowing you to combat diseases and illnesses that could be transmitted from person to person. It also assists your digestive system and helps improve your metabolism, supporting you with weight loss. The glutathione that is produced in our cells starts to decline with age and is also affected by stress, poor diet, alcohol, lack of exercise, weakened immune system, chronic disease infections, exposure to toxins, and certain medications or medical conditions.
Low glutathione levels have been linked with higher risks of cancer, Type 2 diabetes, hepatitis, and Parkinson’s disease. Other health benefits of Glutathione are related to improving sleep, greater levels of energy and stamina, memory, muscle recovery, and fighting inflammatory conditions such as acne, eczema and rosacea, resulting in clearer, healthier skin. Taking curcumin, selenium, vitamin C, and vitamin E can also help the liver create glutathione.

It is often sought for its potential clearer, healthier skin, skin-lightening effects, reducing hyperpigmentation, and promoting an even skin tone.
