DERMASTIR AMPOULES - VITAMIN C

Description

Topical Vitamin C or ascorbic acid is a popular vitamin being added to skin care products. Currently there are many advertising claims of topical formulations  antioxidants that will protect against and reverse ageing. However, the truth is that many of the available formulations contain very low concentrations of antioxidants that are not well absorbed by the skin. On the other hand, when Vitamin C is manufactured into a stable topical formulation presented in glass ampoules it is a powerful antioxidant that is proven to be effective in protecting against the photo-ageing of the skin.

Formula NATURAL VITAMIN C: Vitamin C is one of the most valued active ingredients in dermatology, due to its multiple benefits for the skin. Not only it is one of the most powerful anti-oxidants known, it also stimulates the skin's metabolism and the formation of the collagen. It also helps reduce irregular pigmentation. Vitamin C helps to inhibit the enzyme tyrosinase, which helps to prevent melanin production.

In humans, Vitamin C is a highly effective antioxidant, a substrate for ascorbate peroxidase, as well as an enzyme cofactor for the biosynthesis of many important biochemicals. Vitamin C acts as an electron donor for eight different enzymes: three participate in collagen hydroxylation. These reactions add hydroxyl groups to the amino acids proline or lysine in the collagen molecule (via prolyl hydroxylase and lysyl hydroxylase), there by allowing the collagen molecule to assume its helix structure and making vitamin C essential to development and maintenance of scar tissue. Topical vitamin C had shown to protect the skin from UV damage caused by prolonged sun exposure by reducing the amount of free radical formation and/or sunburn cells. Exposure to UV light has also shown to decrease the naturally occurring vitamin C level in the skin, thus the topical application of vitamin C restores the photoprotective levels. Other studies also suggest that vitamin C may play a part in the collagen biosynthetic pathway by activating collagen metabolism and dermal synthesis of elastic fibres.

Indications

The Dermastir Ampoules with Vitamin C will boost the collagen production of the skin and will treat the photo-damages from UV exposure. Vitamin C in the Dermastir ampoules remains stable thanks to the fact that is manufactured in monodose glass ampoules.
