Antioxidant Mechanism of Action | Power of Vitamins C+E

–

Environmental stressors like pollution, UV rays, and other toxins are detrimental to the skin, forming free radicals that damage healthy cells. These free radicals attack cellular DNA; damage presents as inflammation on the surface of the skin, where melanin granules also form to reveal what we know as “dark spots.”

–

Degradation of collagen and elastin proteins occurs in the dermis layer of the skin, weakening the skin and- in turn- leading to lines and wrinkles.

Our January Pick: C&E ADVANCED WITH HEXYLRESORCINOL AND SILYMARIN

–

Vitamins C and E are a great example of powerful and potent antioxidants that work best when implemented as PREVENTATIVE care for the skin! This system of defense works to strengthen, smooth, and protect the skin- dramatically helping to reduce the appearance of discoloration- effectively providing an anti-aging management system and promoting an even skin tone.

–

Key Benefits:

– Repairs skin with collagen-inducing ingredients and melanin inhibitors

– Protect against harmful UVA/UVB rays with potent antioxidants – Prevents free radical damage with anti-inflammatory properties

–

Key Ingredients:

– L-Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C) (20%) – an antioxidant and matrix metalloproteinase inhibitor (MMPi) that is pure vitamin C; it minimizes the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles while promoting an even skin tone. It is the only bioavailable form of vitamin C accepted by the skin, providing maximum efficacy.

– Tocopherol (Vitamin E) (5%) – a lipid-soluble antioxidant vitamin and emollient ingredient.

– Hexylresorcinol (1%) – an age-fighting anti-glycation agent that brightens and promotes an even skin tone while reducing future discoloration.

– Silymarin (1%) – a powerful antioxidant derived from milk thistle that has skin-calming and brightening benefits and helps fight free radical damage.

Vitamin B3 Brightening Serum | PCA Skin | NYC

Nourish your skin this season with Kevin’s December pick, the Vitamin B3 Brightening Serum.
Its main and one of the most sought out ingredients, 6% Niacinamide (Vitamin B3), works as a potent- yet calming- anti-oxidant, anti-aging, and anti-inflammatory ingredient- perfect for managing sensitive skin and all forms of discoloration and inflamed acne.
This advanced formulation effectively reduces skin discoloration, redness, and glycation-related skin yellowing, leaving the complexion even and bright:
Brightens dark spots and evens skin tone by inhibiting melanogenesis
Blocks the glycation (glycation: deteriorating of cell-turnover and slower collagen production) process to minimize age-related skin yellowing and dullness
Boosts barrier function to reduce redness
Key Ingredients and Functionality:
*Niacinamide (6%) – a potent, yet calming antioxidant that delivers multiple
important benefits to the skin. It helps to reduce transepidermal water loss and improve barrier function. When your barrier is strong, our skin is less hypersensitive. This is critical for healthy, bright skin. Additionally, it helps reduce redness, skin yellowing, and promotes an even skin tone.
Mulberry Extract, Green Tea Extract, and Oligopeptide-51 – an advanced ingredient blend that decreases the production of unwanted pigment to brighten skin and produce a clear, even complexion.
Plankton Extract – an advanced ingredient derived from a biotechnologically balanced and standardized pool of microalgae actives that have been carefully selected and encapsulated in liposomes. It brightens and evens skin tone while dramatically reducing dark spots and discoloration.
Glycerin – a humectant and emollient that helps hydrate the skin.
This is an absolute power serum for discoloration that will help enhance your skincare routine right before moisturizing. Great for all skin types, it helps combination, dry, normal, oily, and sensitive skin. After cleansing, toning, and applying any PCA SKIN treatment serums, apply to the entire face and neck for maximum skin brightening and anti-aging benefits. Follow with the appropriate PCA SKIN broad spectrum SPF product in the daytime and moisturizer in the evening.

TruSculpt iD by Cutera | New York, NY

–

Someone’s making sure his New Year resolutions come true this year! ????️

–

If you’re ever wondering what Kevin is doing when he’s got a light schedule, it’s the truSculpt 6-iD for his incoming six-pack!

His regular body contouring routine: six applicators on the abdominal area and another six on the flank-area!

–

TruSculpt iD is the latest, non-invasive, and FDA-approved body sculpting treatment that safely, comfortably, and permanently eliminates fat cells and decreases circumference in stubborn areas in as little as just one 15-minute session with minimal to no downtime.

–

The powerful, monopolar radiofrequency (RF) treats the area of focus, therapeutically heating the entire fat layer from skin to muscle while optimizing efficacy and maintaining a comfortable skin temperature. A clinically proven average of 24% stubborn fat cells are irreversibly damaged and permanently eliminated by slowly and naturally passing through the body over a period of 12 weeks.

–

While the TruSculpt iD handpiece does bring a gentle warming sensation, it is safe! Although the sensation of the heat intensifies as the temperature increases, the temperature will be increased gradually, allowing you to comfortably adjust to the therapeutic heat, and the temperature can also be decreased quickly as needed.

–

It is customized to effectively treat multiple treatment sizes and body areas simultaneously, regardless of fat thickness, presence of skin laxity, and skin type. With TruSculpt iD, you can get the body definition you want, even in areas that have been resistant to diet and exercise.

–

Discover the NEW YOU by taking control of your shape! Rid any stubborn body fat with this body sculpting innovation, TruSculpt ID by Cutera!
