BENEFITS:
The
RETINOLIC CREAM PEEL is a cream moisturizer for face and necks and it features
Hydroxy-Pregnenolone, as well as a number of other fairly spectacular
anti-aging ingredients. First of all, as
the name implies – it is a ‘cream form’ of our Retinolic Complex that we first
introduced in the form of a serum a number of years ago. This complex is a unique fusion of Retinol
and Glycolic Acid Polymer.
What
are the implications of Vitamin A in the skin?
The keratins – those silk-like proteins that make up the ‘skeleton’ of
epidermal cells differ substantially between the skin of the embryo, fetus, and
adult. The body remembers what type of
keratin it produced when it was an embryo or fetus, no matter how old the body
is. The idea is to get it to recall and restart
the processes, at least to some perceptible or measurable level. The skin can be made to express some of the
protein structures, which constitute fetal epidermis. Think about everything that you’re currently
hearing about STEM CELLS and their ability to turn into any tissue. And there are STEM CELLS in the skin! Vitamin A derivatives and Vitamin A
metabolites have been proven to help this process. Vitamin A helps coax the skin to re-select
its epidermal building blocks from the fetal repertoire, then the
wrinkle-sustaining adult keratin’s can slowly give way to the smoother, more
elastic, and wrinkle-resistant fetal-type of keratin’s.
Along
with the Retinolic Complex and the Hydroxy
Pregnenolone, we’ve included a therapeutic level of another unique complex,
which is highly cutting edge. We have
long used Aminoguanidine as a tool against weakening of the collagen structure,
but now we’re complexing it with a special patented marine complex. This complex is a powerful inhibitor of
matrix metalloproteinase activity. In
other words, it is an inhibitor of the
enzymes that destroy the skin’s collagen network. It’s no secret that deterioration of this
matrix plays an important role in the aging phenomenon of the skin, and causes
a diminution in dermal thickness, collagen content and protein
organization. Destructive enzymes
negatively impact the firmness, elasticity and maintenance of the extracellular
matrix. This complex can help control
this process, and thereby help maintain a more youthful looking skin
