Combining nutritional supplements or oral medication with topical treatments for a 360° approach to skincare
While topical products are essential for targeted skincare, a truly holistic approach recognizes the importance of nourishing the body from within. Cureskin’s oral medications and nutraceuticals work in tandem with topical routines to address the root causes of skin and hair concerns, offering a comprehensive and long-lasting solution.
Nutraceuticals are supplements that deliver a high concentration of nutrients to support the body’s functions.
For skin and hair, they can provide a powerful defense against internal factors that lead to damage and aging.
Some examples include:
Known as a master antioxidant, glutathione is a tripeptide naturally produced in the liver. It helps protect cells from oxidative stress, a key driver of premature aging and hyperpigmentation. As a supplement, it can work to inhibit the enzyme responsible for melanin production, leading to a brighter and more even skin tone.
This omega-6 fatty acid is a potent anti-inflammatory agent. Found in oils like evening primrose and borage, GLA is crucial for maintaining a healthy skin barrier. Oral supplementation with GLA can improve skin hydration and elasticity, and is particularly effective in managing inflammatory conditions like acne, dandruff, eczema and atopic dermatitis.
For more severe or persistent conditions, dermatologists may prescribe oral medications. These are potent ingredients that target specific biological pathways to deliver a therapeutic effect.
For male pattern hair loss (androgenetic alopecia), finasteride is a widely used prescription medication. It works by blocking the enzyme 5-alpha-reductase, which converts testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT). By reducing DHT levels, finasteride helps to prevent further hair loss and can promote hair regrowth. This medication is exclusively for men and requires a doctor’s prescription and ongoing supervision.
Root causes of skin and hair concerns often can’t be targeted by just topical treatments and for best results need to be recommended together with oral supplements or medication, by a dermatologist, for best results
