Why You Should Be Using Rosehip Oil

December 16, 2020

Rosehip Oil:

anti-aging and anti-oxidative

Rosehip oil often fades into the background in crowded makeup or pharmacy aisles. Oils like jojoba, argan, coconut oil and others are more well-known for their skin-healing or clarifying properties, but don’t count rosehip oil out simply because it is rarer. It’s a great, versatile option for skincare – especially as we’re moving into dryer and colder months.

First, rosehip oil is naturally moisturizing and has powerful anti-aging properties. It has a high level of Vitamin C, which gives the oil a concentrated anti-aging effect. Vitamin C is an antioxidant and can protect + repair UV damage while assisting in reducing wrinkles.

Basically the concentrated levels of Vitamin C in rosehips provide a good scavenging platform to remove damaging free radicals from your skin. Rosehip oil is also rich in carotenoids, which, similar to Vitamin A, are involved in regulating skin turnover – which can lead to a more even and brighter complexion. Rosehip oil has a lot of Vitamin A, therefore it is basically a natural retinoid.

Retinoids such as all-trans retinoic acid also assist in brightening skin appearance. It lightens pigments within the skin and also speeds up skin cell turnover and maturation, which gives you a fresher, more youthful appearance..

How To Use Rosehip Oil

Rosehip oil can be directly applied to the face, chest, shoulders, etc. – anywhere you could use an anti-aging lift. It’s a light oil, but goes a long way, so start with a drop or two and go from there.

You can either use three or more drops warmed in the palm of your hand alone, or add a drop or two to your regular moisturizer.

This oil is antifungal and antibacterial, so don’t worry too much about it clogging your pores and causing a breakout. In fact, the same retinoids that produce high skin turnover are similar to Retin-A, which reduces the likelihood of buildup forming in your pores. The anti-inflammatory effects of rosehip oil can also calm inflammation-related cysts and acne as well.

Beyond Aesthetics:

how rosehip oil can improve your well-being

Rosehip oil (or as it’s sometimes labelled, Rosehip Seed Oil) has a high concentration of oleic, linoleic, alpha-linolenic acids alongside carotenoids and tocopherol. These compounds make rosehip oil naturally anti-inflammatory and can assist in reducing oxidative stress.

It has also been shown in a 2019 study to help reduce the appearance of scarring. It does so by stimulating macrophages to shift out of a chronic inflammation mode and promoting good healing, as opposed to a state that results in poor healing and more pronounced scar formation. It has also been used effectively to reduce the appearance of stretch marks.

Rosehip oil is one of many natural, plant-based remedies that you can use to improve your overall well-being. At Well Theory, we believe in the potential of natural remedies, combined with cutting-edge medical research, in improving your life, health, mental well-being, and more.

Platelet-Rich Plasma: A New Anti-Aging Treatment

designed with curated botanicals + medical expertise

Hi, Dr. Meredith Warner here –

I have over 20 years experience with platelet rich plasma PRP and other regenerative treatments for connective tissue and collagen. I have used PRP in countless surgeries and for many orthopedic, wound healing and connective tissue problems encountered in my practice.

Likewise, I have incorporated natural and alternative types of treatments into my practice and personal health for the same amount of time. I have a deep knowledge base of the properties and rejuvenating/healing abilities of phytochemicals like terpenes, flavonoids, sesquiterpenoids, alkaloids, etc.

I have combined my knowledge of connective tissue and the healing of collagen and skin with my knowledge of the healing abilities of phytochemicals and PRP (platelet-rich plasma) in a new and exciting product.

PRP And Facial Rejuvenation:

surgeon-tested & surgeon-approved

I personally wanted to find a way to use PRP for facial rejuvenation. I did not have the time or desire to undergo a microneedling procedure – during which a practitioner would poke many small holes in my face to administer PRP injections. Currently, one of the standards in facial rejuvenation is to combine microneedling with PRP.

Microneedling is thought to stimulate collagen healing by penetrating the skin with small needles and causing damage to the subdermal layer. This damage is then healed by the natural healing mechanisms of the human body. At the time that the holes are made in the skin, PRP can be spread over the face in the hopes that it will enter the subdermal region through these holes.

I have long thought that this method of treatment seems primitive and there must be a better way to gain more youthful skin. Also, we know that inflammation is the source of mitochondrial damage and can be an underlying reason for the development of wrinkles and certain types of diseases such as cancer.

It has never made a lot of sense to me to induce inflammation to cure the results of inflammation. I thought about this for a long time and developed my PRP Collagen Complex.

The Science Behind Dr. Warner's PRP Collagen Complex

Essentially, I knew that there are certain phytochemicals that can drive PRP through the outer skin layer and to the underlying collagen in the subdermal plane – and mixing them with PRP would deliver an effective anti-aging treatment without invasive microneedling.

The subdermal plane beneath the outer layer of skin is the area that requires healing and growth to improve the fullness and freshness of the face. To that end, I have developed a method to safely put PRP in that region and to allow for rejuvenation of the skin, and have tested it on myself for months to ensure its safety and effectiveness.

Phytochemicals like CBD are terpenes that interact with the body on a molecular level. The research behind Well Theory – developing more natural, less invasive methods of treatment – is what informed the design of this PRP Collagen Complex, currently available in my clinic here in Baton Rouge.

Meredith Warner, MD

This product harnesses time-tested and safe medical grade phytochemicals and topical components for the purpose of allowing individuals to place PRP where it is needed most on a daily basis.

The platelets in PRP have been proven in many studies to provide an abundant amount of growth factors. The phytochemicals in my complex not only drive the PRP through the skin but also clean the skin naturally. My proprietary blend of certain terpenes allows for anti-bacterial and anti-viral actions at the cellular level of the skin.
