Comments Off
On the basis of Prof. Dr. A. Kligman justified Kinotherapy is a detailed strategy against on premature skin which effect the aging . Components of the strategy are the preservation of the NMF (water, protection against radicals) and the barrier layers of protection against solar radiation and their consequences, the promotion of regenerative processes and reflections on the budget of the fatty skin. The individual skin care for skin damage and skin problem is based on suitable base creams and Kinotherapy agents described. Treatment processes are accompanied by this procedures. The principle of the enlarged “Outside-in-therapy (extended cryotherapy  ) and examples temporarily acting” anti-aging “agents are shown.
This approach against premature skin aging is based on the findings of the Kinotherapy.
