The Science
What are the active ingredients in DermaRepair and how do they work?
Formulas 2 and 3 contain the following
pharmaceutical-grade ingredients:
Alpha Lipoic Acid: This powerful anti-oxidant is vital to the energy
production of your skin cells, promoting healthy new skin. It aids in
exfoliation and contributes to your youthful appearance.
Vitamin C Ester: This vitamin is an excellent anti-oxidant and is vital
for
the formation of collagen. Vitamin C ester promotes healing of your
damaged skin cells resulting in reduced lines, wrinkles, and sun damage.
DMAE: This amino acid immediately tones and plumps your skin. It
prevents age and liver spots and aids in healing the micro-scarring which causes
wrinkles. DMAE enhances your skin's use of vitamin C ester and alpha-lipoic
acid and increases your body's production of acetylcholine, which
improves muscle tone and firmness.
Collagen: Micronized
collagen plays an important role in the healing process of damaged skin.
It aids in your skin's strength and integrity, resulting in firm, toned
skin.
Caprylic Triglycerides: These plant-derived lipids leave a soft,
emollient finish to your skin after the other ingredients have penetrated and been
absorbed. Triglycerides also help bind hydrating water to your skin.
Formula 2 includes:
Glycolic Acid 5%: Alpha-hydroxy acids give your skin a softer, smoother, and
more radiant appearance. Glycolic acid, the superstar of AHA's loosens dead
and sun-damaged skin cells from healthy new skin, removing the barrier to
a smoother, more beautiful texture. This exfoliating anti-oxidant also
works synergistically with alpha-lipoic acid and DMAE. Additionaly, glycolic
acid prepares your skin to receive the beneficial effects of the other active ingredients in DermaRepair.
Formula 3 includes:
Lactic Acid 5%: The alternative to glycolic acid for sensitive skin,
this gently-acting AHA maintains your skin at a slightly acidic pH, hindering
bacterial growth. Though not as aggressive as glycolic acid, lactic acid
assists in removing dead skin cells by exfoliation, removing the barrier
to smoother, more beautiful texture.
