There
are many different factors that can lead to scarring. This includes leftover
scars from teenage acne, surgical procedures, burns or other accidental
injuries. However they originated, scars can be terribly unsightly and those
affected typically wish they were less noticeable.
Development of Scars
When
skin is wounded and the skin is broken in some way or another, part of the
natural healing process consists of the body producing extra collagen, a
protein vital to skin reproduction. This collagen then builds up around the
damaged tissue area, assisting in the healing and strengthening of the wound.
For
approximately three months or so, new collagen continually forms and, as blood
supply increases, causes the developing scar to become red, lumpy and raised.
Gradually, collagen at the wound site breaks down and blood supply reduces. As
a result, the scar slowly gets paler, softer and smoother. Unless steps are
taken to reduce scars, they are usually permanent, although they will continue
to fade slightly for up to around two years.
Revitol Scar Cream Ingredients
Revitol
scar cream is especially formulated from natural ingredients to assist and
speed this natural healing and fading process.
The
four main ingredients of Revitol scar cream - which are mainly responsible for
the reduction/ removal of scars - include:
- Hydroquinone
- Retinol
- Dimethylaminoethanol
- Copper Peptide
Here
is what each of these ingredients does within the Revitol best scar cream treatment.
Hydroquinone - The central component of the cream, Hydroquinone, is
predominantly responsible for lightening darkened skin cells. Known to affect
an array of marks in addition to scars - including dark and age spots, marks
caused by varying hormone therapies and stretch marks, Hydroquinone makes it
possible to apply this cream without unpleasant side effects.
Retinol - A derivative of Vitamin A, Retinol has a unique molecular structure
allowing it to sink deep into even the lowest skin layers. Providing the body
with vital nutrients from within these deep skin layers, Retinol improves skin
hydration levels, complexion, tone and colour.
Dimethylaminoethanol - Produced naturally within the human brain,
Dimethylaminoethanol if also found in anchovies, sardines, and salmon and other
fish. It is included in the Revitol scar cream formula, because it boosts
natural production of a chemical known as acetylcholine. Acetylcholine is not
only crucial for proper brain function, but also plays an important part in
assisting the brain in dealing with stress.
This then helps to control development of wrinkles, fine lines and
various other age/ stress related marks.
Copper Peptide - One of the most effective elements for skin regeneration,
Copper Peptide has been attributed by many studies with high effectiveness in
the promotion of collagen and elastin production. In addition to promoting the
production of these to crucial elements of healthy skin, this ingredient also
provides antioxidant effects.
Glycosaminoglycans production is also promoted by this ingredient, which -
besides Vitamin C - is brilliant for penetration into the lowest skin layers.
Clinical research/ studies have revealed that varying enzymes dependent on
copper can greatly benefit inherent tissue growing/ building processes within
the body.
Summary
In
essence, Revitol scar cream assists the body's own natural healing and skin
forming processes, while lightening darkened scar tissue enough to make
existing scars fade more and subsequently become almost invisible.
