But the reality is that these products contain propylene glycol, vegetable glycerin, flavourings, metals and more.<\/p><p><strong>Here&#8217;s why these ingredients become harmful when vaped:<\/strong><\/p><p><strong>1) Propylene Glycol (PG)<\/strong><br \/>When heated and inhaled, PG breaks down into <strong>formaldehyde<\/strong> and other aldehydes, irritating the lungs and skin, which can worsen eczema and cause <a href=\"https:\/\/jintegrativederm.org\/doi\/10.64550\/joid.v7rp5393\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">allergic contact dermatitis<\/a>, eg, itchy, red rashes in areas where irritants accumulate, such as around the mouth, chin, or dominant hands.<\/p><p><strong>2) Vegetable Glycerin (VG)<\/strong><br \/>When vaporized, VG decomposes into <strong>acrolein<\/strong>, a chemical that damages the airway lining and inflames tissues. Thicker VG aerosols also deposit more deeply, irritating the lungs and skin.<\/p><p><strong>3) Flavourings<\/strong><br \/>Some flavourings are toxic once airborne.

Nickel and chromium also cause allergic skin reactions.<\/p><p>For people with eczema or naturally sensitive skin, vaping could be akin to pouring salt on a wound.

Injections are delivered just beneath the surface where moisturisers cannot reach, and this directly restores deep hydration, plumps up fine lines, and recreates the supple &#8220;bounce&#8221; that dehydrated, vape-damaged skin often loses.<\/p><p>Beyond HA, skinboosters also stimulate collagen production. This is particularly important for ex-vapers, since collagen is the very protein that nicotine and free radicals break down relentlessly. By helping the skin to produce more collagen, skinboosters not only smooth texture and soften scars, but also rebuild the scaffolding that keeps your skin firm and youthful.<\/p><p>In essence, quitting vaping stops further damage, while skin boosters actively regenerate what has been lost. For patients who want to see and feel results more quickly, be it a plumper glow or improved overall resilience, skinboosters are one of the most effective, scientifically backed therapies we offer at our clinic.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8e35015 elementor-align-left elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"8e35015\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-sm\" href=\"\/contact\/\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">Want faster skin recovery after quitting vaping?
