A Powerful Anti-Aging Ingredient
Tretinoin is a powerful ingredient in the Dermesse Skin Care System. It’s well known for its anti-aging properties, efficiently removing the surface layer of the skin to speed up the cell turnover process and visibly diminishing obvious signs of aging.
How Tretinoin Works on Your Skin’s Surface and Deeper Layers
The faster your skin’s cells turn over and the surface layer is shed, the faster and deeper your Dermesse Skin Care System products can penetrate. This improves the appearance of your skin by sloughing away dead cells that make your face look dry and dull. Used as directed during your Dermesse Skin Care program, Tretinoin products polish away dead cells, enabling healthy, luminous skin underneath to emerge.
Best of all, Tretinoin works on the deeper layers of the skin: stimulating, and therefore building, more collagen. A protein that is found under the surface layer of your skin, collagen supports the top layer of your skin (the epidermis.) Collagen is what gives younger faces the plump, supple skin that radiate health and youthfulness.
As Collagen Diminishes, Aging Accelerates
As we age, our store of collagen breaks down and diminishes - largely as a result of overexposure to the sun, the natural aging process, and harsh environmental factors (smoke, pollution, poor dietary habits, among them.) As our collagen diminishes over time, our skin begins to collapse onto the facial muscles and bones. This accelerates the development of the wrinkles & folds, hollow areas, and loose facial skin that are telltale signs of the aging face.
Tretinoin is a Primary Active Ingredient in the Dermesse System
The potency of the 6-Step Dermesse Skin Care System comes from the combined therapeutic effects of Tretinoin, hydroquinone, glycolic acid and alpha hydroxy acid.
Tretinoin was originally FDA-approved for the treatment of acne, and it is a formidable treatment. But, it also reverses signs of aging on the face.
Tretinoin is Like Exercise for Your Skin
Tretinoin, when applied at prescription-level strength, helps rebuilds your skin from the inside out. Unlike Over-the-Counter beauty products (which can only contain a small amount of Tretinoin, by law) the Dermesse Skin Care line is pharmaceutical grade. Because it can only be prescribed by a doctor, it can contain enough Tretinoin penetrate into the deeper layers of the skin. The result: clinically, dramatically, and visually improved skin – inside and out. By stimulating new cell growth and a healthy, regular turnover of dead cells, Tretinoin is like exercise for your skin.
Expect Dramatic Results
When used as an essential part of your customized Dermesse Skin Care Treatment plan, you will see:
- A noticeable reduction of fine lines and wrinkles
- An evening out of your skin tone, with reduced areas of discoloration & hyperpigmentation
- The smoothing and tightening of your skin
- Increased natural hydration of the skin
Tretinoin actually changes the DNA of damaged skin, which is busy reproducing itself each time your skin cells turn over (every 4-6 weeks.) When your cellular structure becomes damaged by genetic or harsh environmental exposure, the new cells produced simply replicate the old cells. In other words, you produce new, damaged cells.
This is why your skin doesn’t improve, even if you’ve been using expensive over-the-counter product for a long time. But OTC products are not formulated at strength sufficient to penetrate below the skin’s surface. You may notice a slight benefit with such products, but your skin problems do not go away. In fact, you may notice that your skin has been loosing worse over time instead of better! Clearly, you need a better solution.
Dermesse is a Clinical Product, Using the Optimal Amount of Tretinoin
When Tretinoin formulated to penetrate below the surface layer of your skin is applied at prescription-level strength, it works. Because Dermesse Skin Care products are produced at pharmaceutical strength, they are able to accomplish what no OTC product can.
This means they can work on a cellular level to change your skin’s behavior.
Instead of having problem skin that replicates itself, you are now creating healthy skin cells that reproduce healthy skin. In other words, you have interrupted your skin’s habits and replaced them with good habits, while building up the collagen that takes years away from your face.
