First Aid Beauty seems like the kind of no-frills brand that I want to have on hand to go "back to basics" when my skin is freaking out because it takes a pared-back approach that seems very intuitive to me. Ava MD and Skin Five’s Dr. Ava Shamban is seeing impressive results with the Fotona HAIRestart stimulation program. In 1992, Dr. Sheldon Pinnell reported the results of a study that showed the vitamin-C form of L-ascorbic acid decreased sun damage. In short it is basically a form of dermatitis that produces a yeast called Mallassezia that grows on everyones face but is particularly prevalent in people with oily skin. L-ascorbic acid (a form of vitamin C) is an antioxidant found in care products that helps increase the production of collagen. As an antioxidant, vitamin C suppresses the improvement of skin cancer caused by UV exposure. This helps to keep its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial properties intact. "This helps encourage healthy hair growth," she says.
