As we age, our dead skin cells on our epidermis will get thicker and thicker, resulting in dull, yellowish looking skin. Even if you have been religiously giving your skin a scrub every week or a visit to a beauty salon every month, you are still unable to remove the right amount of dead skin cells that way. The build up will cause blockage of your pores, resulting in poor absorption of products; in the long run, your skin is dehydrated and lacked the nutrients that it needs.

In the past, AHA treatments were all the rage because it promises an instant brightening, fine line reducing effect. It works by diminishing corneocyte cohesion, then breaking up the cellular glue and allow the skin to shed, replacing new layer of skin at a faster rate. However, these benefits came with a price. Customers experience thinning of the skin, reddening, flaking and sensitive skin after the harsh AHA treatment.

Today, our Dr BioDefense 20 is a revolutionary treatment that promises all the benefits of AHA treatments, with added benefits and at the same time eliminating the cons. Gluconolactone is added to this special formula. It is a naturally-occurring, antioxidant agent found in the skin.

Gluconolactone is clinically proven to provide powerful antiaging benefits without irritation, even in sensitive and rosacea prone skin, and around the delicate eye area. It is also a highly stable antioxidant that has been proven to inhibit elastase, helping to preserve skin’s youthful elasticity.

Lactobionic Acid is also added to this special formula. It helps to diminish appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, condition skin barrier and enhance cell turnover. It is also a potent antioxidant, which is primarily a chelating agent or antioxidant ingredient found in organ transplant preservation fluids and antioxidant in tissues, food, drugs.
