Why BioJuvenate Products Are Essential

Everyday, environmental elements like sunlight, smoke and air pollution cause oxy radicals to form in the skin.  These oxy radicals attack your skin's collagen, causing lines and wrinkles to appear.  This process is called photoaging.

Antioxidants (like vitamin-C and vitamin-E) fight oxy radicals, helping to prevent premature environmental damage, and improving the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.  Our products contain some of the highest levels of antioxidant protection available. 

Vitamin-C has been shown to prevent premature aging in skin, to stimulate collagen production, and to diminish the appearance of lines and wrinkles.  However, in order to be effective, a vitamin-C formulation must contain a high concentration of L-ascorbic acid; an ingredient that is extremely difficult to stabilize at high concentrations.  Our products use special formulation technology to ensure stabilization and usefulness.

The antioxidant benefits of vitamin-C and vitamin-E are well established medical facts.  Recent studies show that using a combination of vitamin-C and vitamin-E provide even greater benefits for the skin than using vitamin-c or vitamin-E alone.

New research shows:

• A combination of vitamins C+E provides better protection from UVB damage than vitamin-C or vitamin-E alone.
• When used with a sunscreen, a combination of vitamins C+E provides almost complete protection from UVA damage.
• In the body, vitamin-C is necessary for vitamin-E to replenish itself.

Combining  these two antioxidants was thought to be impossible because pure vitamin-C (L-ascorbic acid) is water-soluble, and pure vitamin-E (alpha-tocopherol) is oil-soluble.  The unique technology in our products creates a super antioxidant treatment.

Alpha-Hydroxy Acids (AHAs), the naturally occurring weak fruit and food acids, have been an exciting development in the skin care industry. They show excellent results in improving the collagen creation and the exfoliation of epidermis dead cells. The AHAs include glycolic, lactic, citric, malic and tartaric acids. Glycolic acid is present in sugar cane, lactic acid in sour milk, citric acid in fruits, malic acid in apples, and tartaric acid in grapes. Use and effectiveness of these acids was well known by ancient and folk medicine. Ancient youth remedies such as milk baths to smooth the skin or stale wine application to the face to diminish the wrinkles are well described. The widely used glycolic acid has the smallest molecular size of any of the AHA's and is believed to have the best penetration ability into the skin. 

Our products with alpha hydroxy acids also incorporate another important development in modern skin care. Use of atomized oxygen as a penetrative vehicle for Vitamin-A Palmitate. Once the Vitamin A Palmitate penetrates the skin, it is converted to weak retinoic acid by the body's natural biochemical processes. This conversion is well documented by Hoffman-LaRoche in Switzerland, which manufactures the retinoic acid ingredient used to make Retin-A creams.
