The science behind a scar
As soon as the ‘dermis’ (deep skin layer) is damaged, for whatever reason(see below), the body immediately begins a reparative process.
- Numerous cells migrate to the damaged area
- Some of these cells, called macrophages remove dead cells and debris
- Other cells, called fibroblasts, produce a fibre called collagen
- The collagen ‘bridges the gaps’ over the damaged area to heal the dermis
- The initial wound is sealed
- Unfortunately, the fibroblasts continue to produce collagen even after the initial process in complete
- This over-production of collagen is what forms a SCAR.
What causes a scar?
Scars may be caused by any form of ‘damage’ to the dermis or skin;
- acne
- surgery
- injury
- burns
- infection
- insect bites
- cuts
What types of scar are there?
A scar maybe raised (keloid), or sunken/ flat in appearance.
Scar Repairex helps reduce the appearance of ALL types of scars.
The science behing Scar Repairex
Scar Repairex combines the most potent ingredients, available today, for aiding scar tissue repair and reducing unsightly appearance. These include:
Cyclopentasiloxane A transparent, non-greasy, non-irritant, liquid silicone that forms an effective “cross link”, which is easily absorbed into the skin
Dimethicone A silicone used as an emollient (skin softeners) that allows its application to feel smooth. In addition, this ingredient quickly evaporates, without leaving any greasy residue
A combination of these two encourages growth factors that depress the collagen-producing fibroblasts, whilst providing optimum hydration for keratinocyte (healthy skin cell) growth
Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7 stimulates the development of new collagen & elastin, leading to rapid healing
Palmitoyl Oligopeptide A tripeptide that stimulates the healthy growth of the cell matrix and connective tissue
These polypeptides are essential to stimulate the growth of elastin, which allows the growth of a normal flexible skin layer, after an injury.
Retinyl Palmitate (vitamin A) essential for normal growth of cells and healthy skin.
Tocopheryl Acetate (Vitamin E) promotes healthy skin
Camellia Sinensis (Green Tea Extract) stimulates important anti-oxidants and neutralises free radicals at cellular level.
Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate a stable Vitamin C, which is a powerful anti-oxidant that helps neutralise harmful free radicals in cells. It also aids rapid healing.
This powerful combination of anti-oxidants removes free-radicals, which are generated following any injury of the skin. These free radicals promote inflammation & stimulate fibroblasts, which then over produce collagen. This over-production of collagen is what causes the thickness of the scar.
Lecithin important source of Choline, Inositol, & Linoleic acid, which are part of all cell walls, and play an important role in cell growth and function.
Persea Gratissima oil obtained from avocado pear, and consists principally of the glycerides of fatty acids (palmitic, palmitoleic, stearic, oleic, linoleic & linolenic). It is rich in vitamins, A, B1, B2, D, E , Potassium & Lecithin. This oil is most easily absorbed into the skin, working on the tissues beneath the superficial layer.
These two ingredients contain all the necessary nutrients and vitamins required by healthy skin cells, called keratinocytes. These help encourage and promote the growth of normal skin.
Rutin has powerful anti-oxidant & anti-inflammatory properties that strengthen capillaries and aid healing.
Phaseolus Lunatus extract this protein factor has anti-inflammatory properties.
These anti-inflammatory substances are important in reducing the swelling and redness that happens in wounds, therefore, discouraging the production of scar-forming collagen.
Allantoin is Keratolytic; has the effect of softening skin and is a rapid cell regenerator
This substance has the effect of breaking the skin keratin protein, which would otherwise form a barrier to the deep penetration of the ingredients listed above.
Isopropyl Palmitate derived from palmitic acid in coconut oil, which is an excellent moisturiser that forms a thin film, and easily penetrates the skin.
This ester forms a thin layer over the skin in order to retain the moisture and promote the growth of the healthy keratinocytes, (normal skin cells) at the expense of collagen-making fibroblasts.
Directions for use:
Wash the affected area
Gently massage a thin layer over the affected area twice daily, until fully absorbed
Once fully dry, cosmetics can be applied
The recommended minimum duration of use is 8 weeks
Prolonged use will give better results.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS FOR SCAR REPAIREX
What is a Scar?
A scar is the final stage of the healing process following any trauma to the dermis (deep layer of the skin). Unfortunately, scars have a habit of continuing to grow after they have done their job of binding the edges of the wound together. The scar can be raised (keloid), or depressed depending on the cause of the injury, i.e. cuts tend to have raised scars, whereas acne produces depressed scars.
What is Scare Repairex?
Scar Repairex is a revolutionary product, which combines technologies from the fields of plastic surgery and cosmetic science to produce a silicon-based cream. This cream can penetrate the scar during the re-modelling stage of healing, which can last up to 2 years following the initial trauma. It works by interrupting the over production of collagen, which is the main cause of abnormal, disfiguring scars.

The Perfect Skin Lightening Cream

Skin Lightening Creams
For many centuries, particular cultures consider a fair complexion as being a sign of health and beauty. Pregnancy, hormonal imbalance, birth control pills and exposure to the sun can cause hyper pigmentation. Sun or age spots are caused by exposure to the UVB light of the sun. This leads to an increased production of melanin, which is the coloured pigment in your skin. Melanin is formed from melanocytes, which is controlled by the enzyme tyrosinase. When hyper pigmentation occurs in the epidermis of the skin, skin lightening products can help remove dark patches on the skin. Asian skin is prone to suffering from hyper pigmentation, therefore skin whitening treatments are very popular to improve and lighten the skin. Skin lightening treatments include laser treatments, skin lightening creams (beware of those containing bleaches, as this can damage the skin) soaps, lotions and skin lightening pills. Hyper pigmentation treatments can sometimes produce very good results.
Asian skin differs from white skins because their skins contain larger melanosomes, which are melanin containing packets made by melanocytes which are taken up by surface skin cells. Due to their larger size, the degradation and dispersal is much slower than in white skins. Asian skin also produce more melanin in response to the Sun’s UVB light than white skin.
Skin Lightening agents
Kojic acid
There are many skin whitening creams, some are safer and more effective than others. One very effective skin whitening product is kojic dipalmitate, which is a derivative of kojic acid. Kojic acid is a by-product in the fermentation process of malting rice for use in the manufacturing of the Japanese rice wine.. It inhibits the enzyme tyrosinase, therefore inhibiting the production of melanin (as explained above). Kojic dipalmitate is an alternative to kojic acid because it is much more stable in formulations. It also has the added benefit of being an excellent anti oxidant. This is a safe skin lightener if used at the correct concentrations. If applied twice daily for approximately 6-8 weeks, a noticeable lightening of the skin occurs. Many have found that it is a much safer alternative to skin bleaching, without any nasty side effects or skin rashes. Kojic dipalmitate is a very important skin lightening ingredient for those looking to have even, flawless and fair skin.
Lightenex by PharmaClinix is clinically tested and is the best skin lightening cream available at present.

Hydroquinone
Many skin whiteners contain hydroquinone, which is a potent inhibitor of melanin. It has been banned in many countries due to fears of a cancer risk. Research has found that topical application indicates negative reactions, such as burns, rashes and even scarring. Hydroquinone can be an unstable ingredient in cosmetic formulations, which turns brown upon exposure to the air or sunlight. Therefore, they become ineffective shortly after opening the packaging.
Sunscreens
Sun screens can be very effective at avoiding damage or darkening of the skin by ultraviolet rays from the sun. Higher SPFs are recommended (25 or more) as they contain greater quantities of the UVA protecting ingredients. Sun exposure is one of the most common causes for hyper pigmentation, and is very important to be worn in conjunction to skin lightening creams or maser treatments.
Laser Treatments
Laser skin lightening treatments are very drastic procedures to undergo to reduce hyper pigmentation. They are not particularly suited to the darker skins and the results are not always consistent. Problems have been reported when undergoing laser treatments, such as hypo or hyper pigmentation.
Tretinoin
Tretinoin is less effective than kojic dipalmitate as an ingredient in skin lightening creams, as the time taken to see an improvement in skin tone can quite long. It has other benefit however, such as improving the skin’s elasticity, texture and collagen production.
Alpha Hydrozy Acids (AHAs)
These may remove skin discolorations; only a qualified physician should perform these types of skin lightening peels. However, it is generally assumed that AHAs main benefit is to remove unhealthy, superficial skin layers (exfoliation) where hyper pigmented cells can accumulate.
Azelaic acid
Azelaic acid is a component of grains from wheat, rye and barley. It can be used in inhibiting melanin production and also in the treatment of acne. However, it is not as safe or effective an ingredient as kojic dipalmitate.
