Does your skin appear older than its age?

August 3, 2015 By patkaspian

Bonjour my dear clients,

We talk often about preventing skin aging, “slowing the clock”, etc. But we speak often in general terms and the fact is that our skin’s visible age can be quite different from our actual age. It may be we’ve inherited outstanding genes that keep us looking younger (lucky you!) or years of fun-loving sun exposure may have tilted the clocks hands in the other direction so that we actually look older (though you all know I rarely use the “O” word at the salon..) than our joyful years.

Put very simply, an “Anti-Aging Cream” bought over the counter will never be able to address the skin-aging concerns of a 30 year-old, as well as a 60 year-old, n’est-ce pas?

SOTHYS, our beloved Parisian skincare line, has always been ahead of the aesthetic curve, stating  accurately “Votre peau n’a pas le même âge que vous” , which translated reminds us that ” Your skin does not have the same age as you.”

With this obvious yet overlooked fact by the plethora of skincare lines we see in the media, SOTHYS Paris  uniquely developed their Complete Anti-Ageing Program. It allows your esthetician (moi) to perform a professional skin analysis to determine your skin’s real age  which we refer to as the “grade of aging”. We then can offer you a complete, efficient, and customized anti-aging solution to address the skin issues you are specifically concerned about with respect to YOUR skin.

Your skin may not have the same age as you. The radiance, condition and appearance of your skin does not necessarily reflect your real age. Environmental aggressions, lifestyle and skin care routine, can all influence how the skin ages.

The two-step, simple SOTHYS regimen combines the concentrated, proven anti-aging (Grade-specific) ingredients delivered in a light serum with the additional anti-aging (Grade-specific) ingredients luxuriously infused in a meltingly hydrating cream.

Anti-age Serums

Knowing that not all skin ages equally, Sothys offers 4 Serums to fight the signs of aging – including fine lines and expression lines.  Each serum features the unique cosmeceutical H2CR™ (Cell Health Restoring Complex).  This high performance active contains plant messenger peptides and powerful antioxidants for improved cell communication and ultimate protection.

GRADE 1 FIRST WRINKLES REVITALIZING SERUM

Theoretical age: 30 – 40
Illuminate the complexion and smooth expression lines or premature wrinkles.  Ribose sugar restores the cellular energy for increased skin radiance, vitality and protection.

GRADE 2 ANTI-WRINKLE LIFTING SERUM

Theoretical age: 40 – 50
For more permanent wrinkles, Grade 2 Lifting Serum fills and smoothes lines with hyaluronic acid for an “injection-like” effect. Powerfull pentapeptides stimulate collagen synthesis, preserving the oval of the face.

GRADE 3 ANTI-WRINKLE RESTRUCTURING SERUM

Theoretical age: 50 – 60
For deep wrinkles and slackening skin, Grade 3 Serum with dill seed extract and tri- and tetrapeptides helps build a stronger skin structure and improve the overall appearance of the skin.  Almond biofibers smooth and tone instantly.

GRADE 4 ANTI-AGING REPLENISHING SERUM

Theoretical age: 60+
A nutri-ceutical flax complex and rice peptides help the skin regain the essence of youth.  Skin is smoothed with increased fullness and improved texture.  Rye seed extract helps stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, resulting in a fully rejuvenated skin.
