How DMK Enzymes Skin Treatment Works ?

Product and Treatment Education – December 14, 2024

How DMK Enzymes Skin Treatment Works ?

      Researchers discovered over fifty years ago that the best base to store inert, yet still living enzymes was an ALBUMIN base. Albumin is from the inside membrane of eggshells and makes an ideal storage place for live enzymes that activate once exposed to aqueous fluids, air, and body heat. This process takes about 45 to 60 minutes. Lysozyme and Amylase may be added to formulations. Amylase initiates the hydrolysis of glycoside linkages–part of the so-called ‘cellular glue’ that helps bind dead cells to the underlying living cell stratum. The starch eating enzyme, Agrozyme is also part of an effective formulation as well as Grozyme, Rapidase and Superclastase. Ironically, these enzymes are used for the treatment of sewage and human waste products

Advanced AGE Moisturiser & Advanced AGE Eye Cream

Product and Treatment Education – March 10, 2024

Advanced AGE Moisturiser & Advanced AGE Eye Cream

    A.G.E. Interrupter Advanced is a potent corrective treatment that targets visible ageing impacted by collagen decline and glycation, including wrinkling, laxity, and dullness. This next-generation anti-wrinkle cream is now formulated with 12.6% concentrated Proxylane (20% more), wild fruit flavonoid blend, and new glycyrrhetinic acid.(Liquorice) This advanced technology helps improve the appearance of wrinkling, help restore the skin's firmness, and enhance skin's radiance. A.G.E. Interrupter Advanced is potent corrective anti-wrinkle cream formulated to target signs of visible ageing caused by collagen degradation and collagen. The formula features a high-concentration combination of Proxylane, wild fruit flavonoids, glycyrrhetinic acid, HEPES, and niacinamide and helps correct visible signs of skin ageing such as wrinkles, loss of firmness, and dullness. All in a luxuriously textured formula. *Due to the formulas high levels of flavonoids, this cream's colour may vary but will remain effective. SKIN TYPES: Dry, Normal, Combination, Sensitive SKIN CONCERN: Ageing BENEFITS: Smooths an extended range of visible wrinkle types, targeting fine lines and location-specific creases like nasolabial foldsCollagen and elastin are responsible for skin’s youthful look. While many factors contribute to signs of ageing, glycation of these proteins plays a role. This multi-phase process occurs when excess sugar binds to proteins in skin. Oxidative stressors, like UV, pollution, and diet, expedite the reaction, transforming the bound proteins into A.G.E.s—advanced glycation end-products. Glycation, a major factor of skin ageing, occurs when excess sugar molecules bind to collagen and elastin, forming advanced glycation end-products (A.G.E.), which are known to cause visible ageing. As a result, glycated collagen and elastin fibres lose the ability to function normally, and the body cannot break them down and replace them, leading to severe wrinkling of the skin. The skin around the eyes is more susceptible to glycation-related ageing compared to other areas of the face because the skin is more delicate, making collagen decline more obvious in thinner tissues. A.G.E. Advanced Eye is a highly concentrated eye cream formulated to help target visible ageing in the delicate eye area, like crow’s feet lines, impacted by collagen decline and glycation. An ideal eye cream for dark circles, it is also formulated with a blend of inclusive optical effects that disperses light to minimise the appearance of dark circles across all skin tones.     A.G.E.s turn flexible proteins brittle, making newly glycated collagen lose its critical regenerative ability. As these degenerated proteins cannot break down to be replaced, skin is ultimately weakened, accelerating signs of visible ageing including wrinkles. How to use . Twice daily, massage a thin, even layer of A.G.E. Interrupter Advanced wrinkle cream onto the entire face, neck, and chest.If using in the morning, apply after a SkinCeuticals vitamin C antioxidant serum and before a SkinCeuticals sunscreen. If using with a retinol at night, apply after retinol application.https://www.nualawoulfe.ie/products/skinceuticals-a-g-e-interrupter-advancedA next-generation eye cream that targets the appearance of dark circles, crow’s feet lines, and mild to moderate wrinkles impacted by collagen decline and glycation.
