If you have issues with irritant dermatitis, we have a solution for you: A313 Vitamin A.
A313 Vitamin A is a concentrate ointment usually in a 50G over-the-counter tube presentation. It is indicated in the adjunctive treatment of the varieties of irritant dermatitis.
Its main component, Vitamin A, is found in several parts of the human body in the form of retinol. The body obtains it directly from animal foods, where it is present in the form of retinol.
In human bodies, it is present, for example, in the retinal form in the retina, as retinoic acid in bones and mucous membranes, or as retinyl palmitate in the stored reserves in the liver.
And actually, this vitamin was first isolated from the retina, adopting the name “retinol.”
How to Use A313?
Although doctors prescribe Vitamin A and retinol for several uses, A313 is reserved exclusively for the cutaneous route and is generally prescribed for irritant dermatitis.
What is irritant dermatitis? It is a skin condition that causes an inflammation that can be more or less painful. It is caused by a fungus that might result in different types of lesions. This dermatitis mainly affects areas containing sebum, primarily the face, but also the scalp and torso.
Irritant dermatitis lesions are secondary to skin contact with an irritant. They are characterized by highly variable lesions, ranging from superficial redness to bubble formation or even necrosis, accompanied by itching, tingling, or burning sensation.
So A313 acts in the skin, stimulating the renewal of epithelial cells in the dermis and, as such, is essential for the skin and all mucous membranes.
Why an A313 Ointment Instead of a Cream?
The difference between the two medications indicated for the treatment of skin irritations is their dosage form. An ointment is, by definition, a water-in-oil emulsion, while the cream is an oil-in-water emulsion. So, the ointment form A313 is more oily and therefore more suitable for very dry and localized skin lesions such as irritant dermatitis.
Unexpected Use
As we said, A313 is an ointment with a high concentration of vitamin A indicated for the treatment of irritant dermatitis. Nevertheless, we can find an unexpected use for it!
As Gwyneth Paltrow confessed in Goop, it can also be used to treat unexpected pimples and even to prevent wrinkles! “I know an actress who uses it every night, and her skin is spectacular.”
Until now, A313 has been one of the best-kept secrets of French women: an ointment with retinol.
And they love it because its formula allows the retinol to penetrate the skin and the vitamin A to do its work. It moisturizes the skin, reduces fine lines, prevents wrinkles, fades blemishes, thickens the skin. It is also great if you have acne, oily skin, or blackheads! A313 really packs a punch to aged skin, working great on wrinkles, sensitive skin, and enlarged pores.
And if we go a little back in time, we can find its logic. Retinoids were discovered half a century ago to treat acne. Later, by pure chance, they were found to be effective in reversing the effects of aging. Retinoids (the acid form of vitamin A and the main ingredient of mythical creams such as Retin-A) have the largest number of medical studies supporting their efficacy for three reasons:
1) they act in the dermis (their low molecular weight means they penetrate deep layers)
2) they stimulate the production of collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid
3) they accelerate cell regeneration.
Although it all derives from Vitamin A, there are several types, and they work under minimum conditions to give their best.
So, this unexpected use is correct; retinol can be helpful to treat your facial area while providing exceptional anti-aging protection.
