BiomeRenew™ - The importance of the skin microbiome in healthy skin and our vision at BiomeRenew™ / By Dr Ashley Naidoo (Surgeon and Founder of BiomeRenew™)

“Beautiful skin is not always healthy, but healthy skin is always beautiful”

Your skin is home to trillions of bacteria, viruses and fungi , called the microbiome, that play a symbiotic role with our bodies immune system to protect us from disease causing pathogens. Not only that but they also predigest some substances and assist us in absorbing some substances also. They improve out skin cells turnover and function. All this leading to a healthy barrier and radiantly beautiful skin.

When this balance of good bacteria and viruses is disturbed, by products we use, diseases, poor diet and gut health, our microbiome does not function as it should leading to inflammation, redness, accelerated ageing and even increasing risks of cancers.

Being picky about using products free of fragrances, irritants and alkaline pH mediums , can reduce our damage to the microbiome. Skin diseases like Psoriasis, Eczema, Rosacea and Acne all have the element of a disturbed microbiome and skin inflammation at their core. Poor gut health and stress have been also found to negatively impact our microbiomes and lead to break outs.
