What vitamins does your skin need?

Vitamin C

Vitamin C is found at high levels in the epidermis (outer layer of the skin) as well as the dermis (inner layer of the skin). Vitamin C’s antioxidant properties help with collagen production to keep your skin looking bright and healthy! Using Dr. Patel’s Radiant C/E Serum daily will decrease cell damage, boost collagen production, protect against photo-aging, and reduce wrinkle depth!

Vitamin E

Like Vitamin C, Vitamin E is an antioxidant and one of its main functions in skin care is to help protect your skin from sun damage. It helps fix fine lines and wrinkles, is anti-inflammatory, and overall rejuvenates your skin! Almost 100% of Dr. Patel’s products contain Vitamin E!

Vitamin K

This vitamin is known to help constrict blood vessels which will help with under eye circles, minimize bruising, and calm redness and inflammation! Dr. Patel has formulated the Restorative Retinol Eye cream that contains a breakthrough retinoid and Vitamin K which not only helps with dark under eye circles but produces collagen to improve fine lines and wrinkles!
