What Is Vitamin A & Why Does Your Skin Love It?
• Vitamin A is a fat-soluble vitamin your body can’t make on its own—you need to get it from food, supplements, or skincare.
• It’s essential for your immune system, eyes, reproductive health, and skin.

🧬 Types of Vitamin A
• Retinoids (from animal sources)
• Carotenoids (from plant sources)
Both are converted by your liver into retinol, then delivered throughout your body.

✨ Skin Benefits of Vitamin A
Vitamin A contains retinoids, which help your skin stay healthy and youthful:
• Boosts collagen and elastin to reduce fine lines and wrinkles
• Helps fade sun damage and pigmentation
• Gently exfoliates to clear dead skin and prevent acne
• Stimulates fibroblasts for radiant, firm skin
• Balances oil production to reduce breakouts
• Supports the skin’s immune system and healing
• Strengthens the dermis and epidermis, your skin’s protective layers

🥗 How to Get Vitamin A
1. Food Sources
Animal-based (Retinoids):
• Milk, cheese, butter
• Salmon, fish, shrimp
• Eggs
• Beef liver, cod liver oil
Plant-based (Carotenoids):
• Sweet potatoes, carrots, tomatoes
• Leafy greens, red capsicum
• Apricots, plums, mangoes
• Plain yogurt
Pro Tip:
Vitamin A needs fat to be absorbed—pair fruits and veggies with healthy fats like avocado, nuts, or olive oil.

2. Supplements
• Most people get enough from food, but supplements can help if your skin needs extra support.
• Some combine retinoids and carotenoids; others are single-source.
• Don’t self-medicate—high doses can be harmful. Always check with your doctor.

3. Topical Skincare
• For faster results, apply Vitamin A directly to the skin.
• Retinoids in creams, serums, and moisturisers help with:
• Wrinkles
• Acne
• Sun damage
• Uneven texture

🧾 Quick Q&A
Q: Are Vitamin A and Retinol the same?
A: Retinol is a type of Vitamin A used in skincare to treat multiple skin concerns.
Q: How do you use Vitamin A?
A: Through food, supplements, or topical products—depending on your skin goals.

Vitamin A Different forms in topical skincare!
Vitamin A comes in 4 main forms, or "ladders."
To work in the skin, it must be converted into its active form: Retinoic Acid.
The fewer conversions needed, the stronger and faster the results—but also the higher the risk of irritation.

🪜 Ladder 1: Retinol
• Most common in over-the-counter skincare.
• Needs 2 conversions to become active.
• Effective, but slower and more likely to cause irritation.

🪜 Ladder 2: Retinaldehyde (Retinal)
• One step closer to active form.
• Needs 1 conversion.
• Works faster than retinol and is gentler than prescription retinoids.

🪜 Ladder 3: Hydroxypinacolone Retinoate (HPR)
• Also known as Granactive Retinoid.
• No conversion needed—binds directly to skin receptors.
• Powerful yet gentle. Great for sensitive skin.

🪜 Ladder 4: Retinoic Acid (Tretinoin)
• The active form of Vitamin A.
• Works immediately—no conversion.
• Prescription-only due to its strength and potential for irritation.

At Skin Transformations we stock ladders 1-3 Vitamin A serums. Different types suit different skin conditions.

Intraoral Facial Sculpting: A Manual Lift
Beyond surface aging, loss of definition often stems from deep muscular tension and fascial adhesions. This advanced technique—performed from inside the mouth—releases tension, stimulates drainage, and instantly reveals a more sculpted jawline, softened frown, and reduced neck puffiness.

✨ Performed by Janeen, with visible results after just one session.

17/09/2025

✨ Acne scarring occurs when inflammation slows fibroblast activity, reducing collagen and elastin. Once calm, we create precise, controlled wounds to stimulate fresh collagen—restoring skin strength and smoothness from within.

💆‍♀️ Performed by Janeen, our advanced skin specialist, this treatment delivers progressive results with each session—revealing clearer, firmer, more radiant skin over time.
