Indications Dermal DNA Repair is designed to deliver retinaldehyde more effectively into the areas of the dermis that give a better DNA repair results without the damage to the surface of the skin that irritation causes. This also insures the other actives have the ability to work in synergy to instigate advanced epidermal remodeling and collagen stimulation.
Containing two (2) potent yet stable forms of vitamin A, the benefits are extensive for anti-ageing and rejuvenation. Retinoids are used for normalising and regulating keratinocyte proliferation and differentiation.
Visible changes are noticed very early with the skin revealing a more even toned and hydrated or more luminous appearance. This is thought to be from the action of desquamation of the epidermis. Retinoids also inhibit UV induced pigmentation as it is a known tyrosinase inhibitor.
Vitamin A is known as the ultimate normaliser in the dermaceutical sphere because it has multifactoral benefits on the epidermis and the dermis. The indications for its use are the following conditions: photo-ageing, fine rhytids, acne, rough and thickened skins, vascular insufficiency, thin and fragile skins, pigmentation issues (eg Melasma, Chloasma), post inflammatory hyperpigmentaion (eg. scarring), dermographic skin conditions (eg. eczema, dermatitis), and rosacea
