Advanced Nutrition Programme: The Science Behind Skin Supplements for Healthy, Radiant Skin
At Innersense Aesthetics Medical, we understand that achieving healthy, glowing skin requires more than just what you apply to the surface. Whilst advanced aesthetic treatments and medical-grade skincare play a vital role in improving the appearance of the skin, true skin health starts from within.
In June, our Aesthetic Therapists Brigid and Robyn attended an Advanced Nutrition Programme® training day to deepen their understanding of the relationship between nutrition, gut health and the skin. This specialist training enables our team to provide a more holistic approach to skin health, combining professional treatments, skincare and targeted skin supplements to support your individual concerns.
Whether you are concerned with signs of ageing, acne, rosacea, pigmentation or dry skin, the right nutritional support can become a valuable part of your personalised treatment plan.
Why Are Skin Supplements Important?
Many people follow a healthy, balanced diet and still experience concerns with their skin. Modern food production, farming methods, transportation, processing and storage can all influence the nutritional quality of the foods available to us.
This means that despite making healthy choices, our bodies may not always receive the optimum balance of nutrients needed to support our overall health and skin function.
Advanced Nutrition Programme takes a science-led approach to skincare supplements, creating premium formulations designed to nourish the skin from within. Their products are manufactured to pharmaceutical-grade standards, undergo extensive third-party testing and are continually reviewed as new scientific developments emerge.
The range contains no artificial colours, artificial sweeteners or unnecessary bulking agents and is gluten-free, with many products suitable for vegan, halal and kosher lifestyles.
The Gut-Skin Connection: Why Your Skin Biome Matters
A healthy gut plays an essential role in how effectively our bodies absorb and utilise nutrients. This is why the foundation of many Advanced Nutrition Programme protocols begins with supporting the gut microbiome.
Skin Youth Biome™
Skin Youth Biome™ is a daily probiotic designed for those concerned with skin ageing, dullness and dehydration. It works to support the skin by helping to reduce oxidative stress, support collagen and elastin, and improve the appearance of skin strength and quality.
Skin Clear Biome™
Skin Clear Biome™ is designed for stressed, problematic skin and can be beneficial for those experiencing concerns such as acne, rosacea, eczema and psoriasis. It helps to support the skin barrier, regulate excess sebum and maintain a balanced inflammatory response.
Skin Integrate 28 Biome Powder
The latest innovation within the biome range, Skin Integrate 28 Biome Powder, is a prebiotic formula containing nutrients from 23 different plants alongside amino acids, which are essential building blocks involved in collagen production.
For optimum support, this can be paired with either Skin Youth Biome™ or Skin Clear Biome™ depending on your skin concerns. By improving the health of the gut environment, the body is better supported to absorb and utilise the nutrients provided by additional supplements.
The Best Skin Supplements for Different Skin Concerns
Supplements for Ageing Skin: Skin Ultimate
Skin Ultimate is a comprehensive daily supplement pack designed to support ageing skin. It combines omega oils, vitamin A and antioxidants to improve hydration, support skin brightness and help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
It can also be incorporated into treatment plans designed to support hair health and hair restoration.
Supporting Collagen Production: Skin Collagen Synergy
Unlike collagen supplements that contain collagen itself, Skin Collagen Synergy is designed to support your body’s natural collagen production by providing the nutrients required for collagen formation.
This makes it an excellent addition alongside aesthetic treatments, injectable treatments and during weight-loss journeys where maintaining skin quality, firmness and elasticity can be a concern.
Supplements for Pigmentation: Skin Even IQ
Skin Even IQ is designed to support the appearance of uneven skin tone, including concerns such as sun-induced pigmentation and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
Containing 23 different ingredients that target pathways involved in pigmentation formation, it also provides protection against blue light exposure. It is often recommended alongside professional pigmentation treatments, particularly during the winter months when many patients undergo courses of light-based treatments.
Supplements for Dry Skin and Menopausal Skin: Skin Moisture IQ
Skin Moisture IQ provides deep hydration from within and is ideal for patients experiencing dry, dehydrated or uncomfortable skin, particularly during the colder months.
It is also a beneficial option for those experiencing changes in skin quality during menopause, including increased dryness. It can also support patients with conditions such as eczema and psoriasis.
The Moisture Lock capsule within the range contains a significant dose of hyaluronic acid to support hydration and is also available separately for those wishing to focus on improving skin moisture in a more cost-effective way.
Supplements for Acne and Rosacea: Accumax
Accumax is a targeted skin supplement created for inflamed and problematic skin. Although primarily recommended for acne-prone skin, it may also be beneficial for those experiencing redness and sensitivity associated with rosacea.
It works by helping to regulate sebum production, calm inflammation, reduce redness and support normal skin cell turnover. For the best results, it is often recommended alongside Skin Clear Biome™ as part of a complete skin support protocol.
How Do You Take Advanced Nutrition Programme Supplements?
Most Advanced Nutrition Programme supplements are designed to be taken daily with food and a glass of water. The number of capsules varies depending on the product, and each supplement includes clear guidance on dosage and usage.
