There are three main advantages to using medical grade skin care products versus choosing over the counter skin care products.
Medical-grade skin care products include higher levels of the active ingredients that your skin needs to see a physical difference in skin texture, tone, pigmentation, fine lines and wrinkles.
Medical-grade products contain sophisticated delivery systems that allow the active ingredients to penetrate into the dermis, or middle layer of the skin where collagen is made and the basal, or bottom layer of the skin, where new skin cells are produced. Over the counter products, however, sit on the top layer of skin or epidermis and never gets absorbed into the dermal or basal layer. So, what you are getting is a short-term moisturizing benefit.
Having superior delivery systems that allow for higher levels of the active ingredients to penetrate into the lower layers of skin produces results. You can achieve your skin care goals as a result of using a medical-grade skin care regimen. Erase fine lines and wrinkles, even out pigmentation, brighten your skin tone and love the skin your in.
