Book you Yaxkin Spa's ultimate Mayan algae skin revitalizing care.How Mayan Jade Algae Skin Care prevents premature skin cells aging? The stratum corneum is the outermost layer of the epidermis, and is made up of 10 to 30 thin layers of continually shedding, dead keratinocytes; blue green algae Spa wraps help damage skin cells by aiding them recover vital nutrients and by helping the cells retain their healthy resilience, elasticity and by nourishing them. As the stratum corneum outermost cells age and wear down, they are replaced by new layers of strong, long-wearing cells. The stratum corneum is sloughed off continually as new cells take its place, but this shedding process slows down with age due to nourishment depravation, radical agents, excess of sun burns and tans, and other toxin elements during one's life. Complete cell turnover occurs every 28 to 30 days in young adults, while the same process takes 45 to 50 days in elderly adults.

Collagen and Elastin - The dermis is held together by a protein called collagen, made by fibroblasts. Fibroblasts are skin cells that give the skin its strength and resilience. Collagen is a tough, insoluble protein found throughout the body in the connective tissues that hold muscles and organs in place. In the skin, collagen supports the epidermis, lending it its durability. Elastin, a similar protein, is the substance that allows the skin to spring back into place when stretched and keeps the skin flexible. Ya'ax Tun algae skin care and body mud will restore the dermis health supporting the epidermis cells strength by nourishing enriching the skin cells development, purifying the overall skin of the body with its rich natural organic nutrients.
