Overview The Ultra Serum is an amazing face and neck product that utilizes a broad range of anti aging polypeptides and copper amino peptides to dramatically influence the synthesis of new collagen fibers in the skin, which corrects the appearance of lines, wrinkles, and sagging. This collagen-promoting action is furthered by carnosine amino-peptides that clinical studies have shown guard against Advanced Glycation End (AGE) products, which are the result of fusions between proteins and sugars. Algae and sesame phytopeptides in this serum work to instantly tighten facial structures and give an immediately perceivable lift to sagging skin. For powerful antioxidant support, this formula contains extracts of olive leaf, acai berry, green tea, red tea, white tea, ginkgo biloba, and other phytonutrient rich botanicals that fight free radical damage and calm inflammation. This translucent-amber, aqueous gel is infused with lightly aromatic botanicals that provide natural mint, floral, and citrus overtones and its oil free, aqueous nature makes it perfect for use on acne prone skin. This active serum can be applied at any time and is especially suggested as a day therapy. Formula Mechanisms Rapid Restore provides perceivably tighter skin from the first application that is noticeable within minutes and lasts throughout the day. Quick Lift Anti-Sagging This formula utilizes both Green Brown Algae Extracts that have been highly purified through a proprietary biotechnology process to yield a standardized phytopeptide solution. These micro algae phytopeptides produce a noticeably tighter appearance to facial structures within minutes of application so that sagging skin is firmed and simultaneously sculpted to a more youthful contour. These extracts also protect skin fibroblasts from oxidative stress while stimulating the formation of collagen, thereby promoting a long-term tightening effect to compliment the immediate anti sagging results. Rapid Wrinkle Reversing To further the anti sagging properties of the algae phytopeptides this formula also contains a specially purified Sesame Seed Extract that imparts an immediate anti wrinkle effect by virtue of structural proteins obtained during its refinement. These natural peptides quickly absorb into the skin and form an elastic network that reverses the appearance of wrinkles by making the skin more firm and resilient. These effects are noticeable within a few minutes of application and last throughout the day. Polypeptide Therapy stimulates the skin to increase collagen/elastin production while simultaneously protecting the existing collagen network. Over time this leads to a dramatic improvement in fine lines, wrinkles, and skin elasticity. Long term Anti Wrinkle Effects With the broadest spectrum of anti aging Dipeptides, Tripeptides, Pentapeptides, Oligopeptides, and Tetrapeptides in the industry this formula dramatically reduces the appearance of lines and deeper wrinkles by facilitating an increase in collagen synthesis. Each of these polypeptides alone imparts substantial anti wrinkle effects, but when combined together in one formula the power of each is compounded. With daily use this formula incites the skin to produce a denser collagen network, which in turn increases resilience and elasticity. Skin Healing Scar Reduction Beta Glucans (natural skin enhancing polysaccharides) and Blue Copper Peptides in this formula not only magnify the results of the other polypeptides by promoting collagen synthesis, they have also been proven in numerous clinical studies to help with healing and scar reduction by regulating the production of skin fibroblasts. Anti AGEing This formula contains L Carnosine Amino Peptides that studies have shown can not only prevent the formation of Advanced Glycation End (AGE) Products in the skin (when proteins and sugars fuse together), but can actually reverse damage done by this deleterious process. Antioxidant Phytoplex includes several organic botanical extracts that bathe face and neck skin in antioxidants. Defense Against Free Radicals Phytonutrients (from phyto the Greek word for botanical) saturate the skin in antioxidants that defend against free radical damage. We have included here the therapeutic extracts of Acai Berry (rich in anthocyanins), Olive Leaf (rich in oleuropein), Green Tea (rich in polyphenols and EGCG), Red Tea (rich in superoxide dismutase), White Tea (rich in catechins), and Ginkgo Biloba (rich in flavonoids and terpenoids) to offer superior antioxidant support to facial skin. Anti Inflammatory Lavender, Chamomile, and Mint Extracts in this formula provide a cooling and calming sensation in the skin that works to sooth inflammation. As inflammation decreases the face takes on a more sculpted, youthful contour and skin tone evens out. Scientific Support See the clinical study of this product for more information and before/after pictures as well as our publications on collagen enhancing compounds and antioxidant skin therapies. Directions For Use To apply, pump the product one or two times onto the fingertips and evenly distribute all over the face and neck, gently massaging it into the skin. Make sure all areas of face and neck skin are evenly covered (apply the Ultra Eye Serum or Renew Eye Serum for the thinner and more delicate skin around the eye area). This formula disappears weightlessly into the skin and provides a gentle cooling sensation immediately following application, which is a normal signifier that the product is penetrating. Follow with a moisturizer or sunscreen as needed.
