La Jolla, CA and Hong Kong, China (PRWEB) April 28, 2008 -- Skin care development company, Cosmederm Technologies (http://www.cosmederm.com) announced today a joint venture agreement with Health Sciences Limited, a diversified group of companies based in Hong Kong, focused on promoting quality health care products and services. Health Sciences Limited (http://www.health-sciences.net) is a fully integrated manufacturing and distribution company that will distribute Cosmederm Technologies' line of anti-aging and anti-itch skin care products throughout the Asia Pacific region.

Cosmederm Technologies is a product development company focused on creating highly effective dermatological products using its proprietary platform technology. Its product lines include:

• REFINITY Skin Solutions (http://cosmederm.com/refinity.php) anti-aging line, offering glycolic acid peels, sold exclusively through physicians and used in medical spas

• Cosmederm Skin Science (http://cosmederm.com/cosmederm.php) anti-aging line featuring lactic acid home care products

• TriCalm (http://cosmederm.com/tricalm.php) over-the-counter anti-itch products, which offer rapid relief from itching, burning and stinging caused by insect bites, allergic reactions and medical skin conditions

Health Sciences Limited will also serve as a product launch portal for Cosmederm's second generation of over-the-counter and prescription skin care products in the areas of acne, rosacea, and pruritus among others

"Cosmederm's technology is exceptional in its ability to allow the formulation of highly effective skin care products" says Health Sciences Limited Chairman, LB Saw. "We are very excited about offering Cosmederm's unique product portfolio throughout the Asian market. The anti-itch TriCalm product line is especially compelling because skin itch conditions are common among Asian communities and currently there are no available products that match TriCalm's efficacy."

"We are equally excited to have the opportunity to partner with Health Sciences Limited and introduce the Cosmederm Skin Science, Refinity, and TriCalm products to Asian consumers," says Cosmederm President, Sean Edwards. "They have an extremely skilled and experienced management team and the resources to significantly expand Cosmederm Technologies' product distribution and presence in the Asian skin care market."

Cosmederm Technologies and Health Sciences Limited anticipate their agreement will result in Cosmederm products being distributed in over 30 additional countries during the course of the next few years, pending approval by the various foreign regulatory agencies.
