A: REFINITY™ Skin Solutions diminishes the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, while visibly improving skin color, tone and texture. Treatment may begin with the peel to accelerate exfoliation and then continue with home-use products and subsequent peels for optimal results.
A: Lactic acid is the preferred AHA for REFINITY™ Skin Solutions home-use products because it has been utilized as an effective medical skin moisturizer for decades. Lactic acid was the first AHA cleared by the FDA for use in an over-the-counter (OTC) drug product and clinical studies have shown that lactic acid is equal to glycolic acid in its ability to penetrate the outer layer of the epidermis to stimulate skin renewal.
A: The REFINITY™ Skin Solutions home-use products are formulated with an effective concentration of lactic acid (15%), low pH (3.2) and COSMEDERM-7™, which help to continue the effects of the peel over time. This formulation enables REFINITY™ Skin Solutions products to offer a stronger free acid level than most other AHA home use products.
A: Yes. Daily sunscreen protection is recommended by the American Academy of Dermatology. Patients should consult their physician for brand recommendations that will best complement REFINITY™ Skin Solutions products.
SkinSpirit offers the REFINITY™ Skin Solutions program at retail.
