Skin Rejuvenation Vitamin C – One Of The Important Component
Reviewed by Dr. Hun Kim Thao
Skin rejuvenation vitamin C is one of the most effective methods for improvement of your skin. Vitamin C (Ascorbic acid) is among the four most important ingredients in skincare products because of its effectiveness in skin improvement and rejuvenation.
Vitamin C in a skincare routine
According to our dermatologists at Grace Skincare Clinic, healthy and beautiful skin requires a scientific skincare regimen. This includes the following elements: applying sunscreen before going out, cleansing face, retinoid, and antioxidants.
Vitamin C is a great antioxidant ingredient that should not be missed in your skincare routine. Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid) has a high antioxidant capacity, which enhances collagen production by fibroblasts, suppresses tyrosine that forms melanin, and removes free radicals. In order to choose the best skincare products for your skin, you should consult with dermatologists.
Besides using skincare products that contain Vitamin C, you can add Vitamin C through your diet with food that is rich in vitamins C such as fruits (lemon, grapefruit, orange, tangerine, pineapple, strawberry, mango…) and green vegetables (choy sum, folium Europe, broccoli, cabbage…).
Even though vitamin C can be supplemented through diet and anti-aging skincare products, vitamin C does not last long in the body and cannot reach its highest effectiveness to improve skin condition.
Therefore, dermatologists at Grace Skincare Clinic encourage patients to combine skincare routine with vitamin C electrophoresis. Vitamin C electrophoresis is a method of transferring vitamin C ions into the skin. About 97% of these ions will metabolize vitamin C. This method will add a large amount of Vitamin C into the skin and maximize the rejuvenation and improvement of skin structure. Thanks to this method, the amount of vitamin C in the epidermis and dermis is increased by several times, improving the skin’s absorbability.
At Grace Skincare Clinic, vitamin C electrophoresis is used in the following cases:
- Rejuvenate the skin and improve pores
- Lighten the skin, reduce acne, and restore sunburned skin
- Reduce sebum
- Smoothen and firm skin
Aging prevention effect of skin rejuvenation vitamin C
Vitamin C is the strongest antioxidant. It can greatly enhance collagen production besides its antioxidant activity because it can interfere with oxidation reactions with superoxide anion or hydroxyl radical.
Vitamin C is an indispensable ingredient in anti-aging skincare. However, when choosing Vitamin C products, you need to consider their packaging, skin sensitivity, and adaptability to skin improvement needs. All contribute to the products’ stability and effectiveness. Products containing stable vitamin C are expensive.
- Vitamin C can stimulate collagen production when applied to the skin. Vitamin C plays a role in stimulating collagen production and inhibiting collagen degradation from within.
- Vitamin C also regenerates alpha-tocopherol (vitamin E) – an antioxidant, which protects the skin from the aging process and fights against free radicals. With many biological activities, vitamin C has been proven to rejuvenate wrinkled skin, improve the structure and firm the skin.
- Vitamin C can inhibit tyrosinase (an enzyme that contributes to melanin synthesis) in the skin, thereby brightening the skin and reducing hyperpigmentation on the skin. Vitamin C is also used to prevent skin damage caused by sunlight, and to treat hyperpigmentation, striae alba, and redness after laser treatment.
- Vitamin C has been popular for anti-aging skincare products and is effective in reducing the effects of UVB, such as redness and damage caused by sunlight.
However:
- Vitamin C can be absorbed through diet but not enough for the skin.
- Vitamin C is well absorbed in pH 2.0
- Vitamin C is easily oxidized, so it is prone to damage when exposed to the sun and the air.
If you intend to have skin rejuvenation vitamin C or use products with vitamin C, please contact our dermatologists at Grace Skincare Clinic for advice and booking.

0-09-2019 "I would love to thank Dr. Hun Kim Thao and her amazing staffs for helping me through a skin improving journey over an almost year while I was staying in HCM. I received acne facial and peel every other week and the service was superb! Each procedure was well explained and Dr.Thao was very attentive. I loved her holistic way of approach to improve patient's skin. Not only she prescribed very effective acne gel but also shared great tips such as reducing the amount of simple carb intake, cutting down sugar, and most importantly highlighting the importance of getting enough sleep. She even recommended a well known doctor in town who could help me with my sleeping problem. In addition, the price was very reasonable and I was very happy with all the service I got from Grace Skin Clinic. Oh Dr. Thao even asked her staff to make me a cup of tea one day as she she thought I looked overly exhausted. I was very moved. How warm hearted she is! I will definitely recommend this place to anyone who wants to check up their skin and improve their skin. Amazing place!"
This place is amazing; they help me improve my terrible skin condition which had affected my identity, and my confidence for many years. I have been visiting Grace Clinic during summer time for the past two years, and every time I am here, they create a different program in order to fit my skin condition and my limited time. Furthermore, people from Grace Clinic always greet me with warm hearts. They once invited me to have boba tea with them which made me no longer feel like a customer but a friend which it has created a friendship overtime. I cannot stress how highly I would recommend this place. Again, they are amazing and very professional. There is one thing, you can do walk-in just fine but it would be better if you schedule the appointment so they can prepare and create the best service for you.
I absolutely love the ladies of Grace Skincare. I was staying in Saigon for 6 months and came here with acne and a congested skin from my travels. So happy I found them! Their prices are reasonable compared to other “expat” clinic that I went to. I bought the 10 facial package for a really good price and am really happy with the result of my skin after following all of their consultations. Acne has cleared up and now we’re focusing on my other skin concerns such as dark spots and hyperpigmentation. I highly recommend this clinic. They truly want you to walk out with skin you feel confident in. I’m going to miss this place and the ladies I got to connect with during my time here.

Hey guys it’s been 3 weeks since we came for our treatment. I can honestly say it’s the best I have had done. Andrew and I look fresh without being overdone. We both had people say how refreshed we look after our holiday. Honestly they wouldn’t be saying that if they knew how much beer and yummy Vietnamese food we consumed when we were there. I can honestly say Andrew and I will be back. And I am telling all my friends how fantastic you guys are and how professional the consultation was. I have yet to find someone in Australia who is so thorough. Thank you, Kylie
I had a acne treatment here last month and now it's improved a lot. I must say that this place is very professional, modern equipment, especially the thoughtful doctor! I'm impressed!
Grace Skincare Clinic has a great and friendly service and that have a centrally located clinic. I highly recommend them!
The owners are wonderful people. I had a good experience and can sincerely and highly recommend everything about Grace Skincare Clinic!
I was so embarrassed with the scars and pigmentation marks on my face. These are from old sports injuries and harsh products on my legs from childhood accidents. I am fed up with using so much concealer makeup on my face and am never able to wear a skirt with confidence. I heard about the Grace Skincare Clinic pigmentation lightening treatment from a friend. I took 6 treatments & used skincare product as Dr. Thao instructed and now my skin is beautiful and permanently clear. It was worth every penny.
as Tet is coming, I highly recommend this place for a weekend retreat, skin detoxing or even an urgent package to soothe and smooth your skin. I got back my healthy skin after just 02 week following the instruction of Dr Thao Hun and it cost me 200,000 for medical consultation fee only. Wonderful!
