Dumb Luck Strikes Again!
Then, on Tuesday, July 2, 2002, at a meeting of
the 20th World Congress of Dermatology in Paris,
France, a series of studies detailing the superior
wrinkle-reducing properties of a patented oglio-peptide
(called Pal-KTTKS) versus retinol, vitamin C,
and placebo, on “photo-aged skin”
was presented.1,2 “As luck would have it,”
Dr. Mowrey states, “the wrinkle-reducing
oglio-peptide tested in the breakthrough clinical
trials turned out to be a key active ingredient
in the StriVectin cream.”
In the trials, subjects applied the patented peptide
solution to the crows’ feet area on one
side of the face, and a cream containing either
retinol, vitamin C, or a placebo to the other
side.Subjects in the Pal-KTTKS/retinol study applied
the cream once a day for 2 months and then twice
a day for the next 2 months. Using special image
analysis, the study’s authors reported “significant
improvement” in wrinkle depth, length, wrinkle
volume, and skin roughness for those women using
the peptide solution.
Better yet, at the 2-month halfway point, the
peptide solution thickened skin nearly 1.5 times
faster than retinol, and without the inflammation
retinol often causes in sensitive skin. As was
expected, the results of the remaining studies
confirmed that the Pal-KTTKS solution’s
effectiveness at reducing fine lines and wrinkles
far exceeded both vitamin C and placebo.
A smoother, younger complexion, less irritation,
fewer wrinkles, and faster results ––
all without expensive (and painful) peels, implants
or injections.
Better than Retinol and Vitamin C, But Is StriVectin-SD
Better than Botox? Dr. Nathalie Chevreau, Director
of Women’s Health at Salt Lake City based
Basic Research®, explains, “Many researchers
believe less invasive cosmetic alternatives are
more effective than Botox. That’s because
‘cosmeceutical’ creams and gels offer
gradual, continual results, while the effects
of Botox and facial peels begin to wear off the
very next day… you’ll never look better
than you do immediately after treatment.”
