ATLANTA (PRWEB) December 15, 2017 -- Retinol, a member of the family of compounds referred to as retinoids, reigns supreme in age defiance and its greatest strength is its ability to rapidly stimulate renewal. Tracing back to ancient Egypt, the ingredient was stabilized in the 1940s to treat acne and later in the 1980s as a common age management treatment. While the results can be impressive, its biggest drawback is that it often irritates the skin in the process. Few could harness its power for peak performance without irritation – until now. Thanks to innovations in skin care science, professional skincare brand COSMEDIX has released LG-Retinex.

A Revolution in Retinol
LG-Retinex, found in the COSMEDIX Serum 16 product, is unrivaled in potency, penetration and stability. Containing not one, but two retinoids – retinol and retinal – in high concentrations, this groundbreaking compound is the closest thing to prescription-strength age-defiance. Despite its power, LG-Retinex is remarkably gentle due to its intelligent encapsulation system that helps neutralize retinol’s trademark irritation without compromising its star performance.

Better Delivery. Better Results.
Another part of what makes LG-Retinex so dramatically effective is its liposomal delivery system. Designed to pass through various water-and-lipid-soluble barriers within the skin’s surface –barriers nature put in place to keep outside elements out – LG-Retinex is able to reach its target destination without sacrificing potency. The addition of glycosaminoglycans, or GAGs, further aids the delivery and retinoid conversion process. Together, these key components bring COSMEDIX’s dual retinoid compound to where it can do the most good – stimulating renewal and exfoliation to minimize the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and advanced signs of aging. For retinol users everywhere, it’s a beautiful new day.

COSMEDIX Serum 16 I The Proof is in the Numbers
In a 6-week clinical study of Serum 16 containing LG-Retinex, users described a reduction in the appearance of deep lines, crow’s feet and more.

  • 100% reported a softer, smoother texture.
  • Within four weeks, 75% reported less apparent wrinkles, while 88% reported a healthier, more radiant appearance.
  • By week six, 88% reported visible diminished fine lines and wrinkles, while 100% reported a brighter, more even-looking skin tone.
  • 88% of participants reported firmer-looking skin.

Containing 16% LG-Retinex, Serum 16 by COSMEDIX could be considered the closest thing to prescription-strength age defiance without a prescription.
