The Enzymes - Professional Use Only

Our enzymes are a safe and gentle treatment, which can be used as a light peel or as a pretreatment before a salicylic acid peel. Applying the cocoa enzyme for 5 min. after microdermabrasion leaves the skin with a “polished” radiant appearance.

Each enzyme product – Zymase, Raspberry and Chocolate - is a combination of bromelain (pineapple), papain (papaya) and trypsin (bovine derivative). Bromelain and papain are cysteine protease and trypsin is a serine protease.

  • Bromelain is an effective anti-inflammatory agent.
  • Papain works with the sulfhydryl group and is highly effective in removing the keratin.
  • Trypsin attacks proteins that contain amino acids.
  • With these three enzymes working together to attack different parts of the keratin molecule,
    they produce very effective results.
  • Raspberry-Anti-inflammatory, anti-viral, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, tyrosinase inhibitor.
  • Cocoa-antioxidant, vaso-constrictor, soothing.

Dermafrost Salicylic Acid: Professional Use Only - Recommended as an Acne Treatment and an Anti-Aging Solution

This treatment has two strengths, 12.5% and 25%. Salicylic Acid has the benefits of alpha hydroxy acids but is more effective in the treatment of early to moderate photo aging.
Skin Type: For sun damaged skin (actinic keratoses), aging skin showing deep wrinkling and loss of elasticity, acne vulgaris types I & II, pigmentation abnormalities, fine wrinkles, and rough, calloused skin.
Salicylic acid is lipid-soluble, in contrast to the water-soluble AHA’s. It is less irritating and does not alter skin barrier properties. During the past ten years, formulations combining salicyclic acid with various alpha hydroxy acids have become more popular and are used for acne skin care, acne treatments, and problematic, dry, and aging skin.
Unlike AHAs that require neutralizing, salicylic acids are self-neutralizing, meaning that they are applied in one or more layers and allowed to dry. Skin exfoliation takes place within the next few days after the peel.

Treatment may be repeated up to three sessions spaced out once every four weeks. In a more sensitive skin, always use the 12.5%.

Note: When using the Dermafrost 25% do not apply more than one coat.

The SWiCH™ Dermal Skin Rejuvenation System

“The SWiCH™ is an effective alternative to chemical peels. In the past chemical peeling has been practiced by physicians and skin care professionals to rejuvenate damaged and aging skin. This skin rejuvenation method relies on the skin’s ability to repair itself after injury. Consistent damage to the epidermis, however, may lead to more serious side effects. With SWiCH™ it is possible to trigger the repair system without injury to the skin”. Peter T. Pugliese, MD
The SWiCH™ System is based on a physiological principle of inducing the natural repair system of the skin to become active. A scientific breakthrough that helps enhance mitochondrial function and restores skin to its youthful appearance. SWiCH&trade gives the professional skin care specialist a treatment that performs beyond the results achievable with non-surgical peels.

Skin Type: Aging, photodamaged or environmentally damaged skin

Properties:

  • Activation of the repair system effects a restoration of both sun-damaged skin and intrinsic skin aging changes.
  • Helps induce repair with minimal epidermal damage
  • Unlike most acid-based treatments, the SWiCH™ System is a leave-on system. The active ingredient remains to provide the continuous treatment for repair, restoration, and skin rejuvenation. Since tissue damage is minimal, repeated treatment can be performed at regular intervals without risk of over-treatment.

The Philosophy behind SWiCH&trade Dermal Skin Rejuvenation System

In order to rejuvenate or remodel sun-damaged skin, physicians have practiced chemical peeling for over 40 years. Both intrinsic and extrinsic aging changes have been the object of many types of skin peeling including chemical, mechanical and thermal modalities. The common thread tying these methods together is the ability of the skin to heal itself when damaged. All of these methods produce some degree of tissue destruction, which incites the natural repair process within the skin. Consistent damage to the epidermis, however, may lead to more serious side effects. In a dermal system that is already overtaxed, the use of these agents creates a greater demand on the energy production.

With the SWiCH™ System, it is now possible to achieve repair of the skin without having to induce tissue damage. The body’s repair systems, including that in the skin, are held in a ready state at all times. Understanding what is needed to trigger the system is the key to the efficacy of the SWICH system.

Any repair system requires a large input of energy. Biologically this is in the form of adenosine triphosphate, or ATP. This energy source is generated by a natural cycle as part of the metabolism of food. For the SWiCH™ system to be effective the active ingredients must penetrate into the skin. Next, the repair mechanism must be switched on and the energy supplied-just as you flip a light switch to supply electrical energy to a bulb. The three parts of the SWiCH™ System are (1) effect penetration, (2) generate energy, and (3) turn on the repair system.

The SWiCH™ is for professional use only. Treatment time - 90 minutes
