READ TESTIMONIALS ON TIGHTENING/FIRMING

The skin has powerful systems that tighten skin. This is most evident during wound healing when wounds are closed by both wound contraction and the production of new skin. During wound healing, this action is so strong that stress lines in the skin can often be seen radiating outward from the wound. These stress lines, indicating strong skin contraction and tightening, can develop in 24 hours in wounds. SRCPs applied to the skin intensify this skin tightening around wounds.

 

Fibroblasts, Lysyl Oxidase, Copper 2 and Vitamin C

Biological skin tightening occurs as the skin's repair cells, the fibroblasts, pull collagen strands together. Then they are biochemically attached by the fibroblast in a way that keeps the strands elastic and soft. The fibroblast uses an enzyme - lysyl oxidase - which needs both copper 2 and vitamin C to link the collagen strands together.

Adequate levels of both copper 2 and vitamin C are essential for wound contraction. You cannot get skin tightening without high levels of both copper 2 and vitamin C )ascorbic acid) in your skin. Copper 2 is best supplied from SRCPs applied to the skin surface. Vitamin C levels in the skin are easily increased by taking at least one gram daily as a supplement. If is difficult to get vitamin C through the skin except at a very low pH of about 2.5 (very acidic).

Concomitant use of hydroxy acids, such as salicylic acid and lactic acid, that remove the older cells on the skin's surface also helps with skin tightening. The hydroxy acids produce a very mild skin damage as they remove older skin cells but this helps the renewal process, probably by increasing the numbers of the skin repair cell, the fibroblast.

The elastic fibers of the skin, collagen and elastin, are produced by a skin cell, the fibroblast. Lasers, microwaves, and heating lights do not produce collagen.

 

Method for Tightening Skin

Skin Remodeling can be used to tighten loose skin. Skin is tightened as older skin is removed and new elastin and collagen fibers pull the rebuilt skin together. Think of young skin as the surface of of a balloon; push it in or pull it out and it quickly pull back into a smooth surface.

This method has worked for many Skin Biology clients.

1. Hydroxy acids, strong copper peptides, and supplements of vitamin C slowly tighten skin. This is a slow process, taking several months, and the hydroxy acids can produce a mild irritation. Some of our clients, after losing large amounts of weight, have used this procedure to avoided the need for the surgical removal of excess skin. For this purpose, Trireduction with Retinol is used in the morning and Exfol Cream at night.

2. If this does not work fast enough, you might use a stronger hydroxy acid such as a 15% to 30% glycolic acid.

3. Some clients apply the copper peptide creams and hydroxy acids at about 4 to 6 hour intervals. TriReduction Cream is used twice daily and the hydroxy acid twice daily.

4. Take a daily supplements of 1 gram vitamin C, and 1 gram of MSM (methylsulfonyl methane). The vitamin C helps crosslinking and the MSM supplies nutritional sulfur for protein synthesis.

5. Combine the above with aerobic exercise to tighten internal muscles.

6. A mild breast lift can also be achieved by this method. For this purpose, the best products are the P&R Breast Cream and a 15% to 30% lactic acid or glycolic acid.

7. A more extensive tightening can be attained by laser resurfacing followed CP Serum and Emu Oil to aid the healing process.

8. For SRCPs and hydroxy acids to use for skin tightening, see PRODUCTS TO TIGHTEN LOOSE AND SAGGING SKIN.

   


Destructive Methods Do Tighten Skin!

Egyptian Pharaoh Ramses II still has tight skin - After 3,228 years!


Testimonials:

BEFORE PICTURE: Client's goal to improve neck, jowls, and overall skin tightening/condition 6 WEEK MARK: Improvement in jowls, neck skin, overall tightening, texture, and color AFTER PICTURE: Notice blue arrows pointing out improvement on jowl area and neck area!

BEFORE PICTURE: Before using SRCPs AFTER PICTURE: Notice blue arrows pointing to skin tightened around orbital bone, lifting effect, and improvement of crows feet!


I want to show you a pic of when I started all my skin care routine...The first pic is May 5, 2005, the second 6 weeks later, the third 6 months after...Look at my eyes, jowls, and most importantly my neck, which I believe is the foundation of everything! Touching it, it felt like tissue paper. I had creases, and below my adam's apple, I had those horrific vertical lines. Just check it out.

By curiosity only, I took this pic myself. I was in shock when I looked at it! "That's Me???", I said! I have some opinions on facial exercises, and admit to doing them as part of my routine, but IT BEGINS WITH GETTING ON THE RIGHT REGIMEN TO REBUILD AND FIRM YOUR SKIN! I proved that with the recent pics I sent you, as I was curious as to if the exercises were helping or was it the skin products I was using (Skin Biology's of course!)...

Would you like to have my neck too? I credit the skin repair and firmness to the SRCPs, CASE CLOSED....No doubt about it, the SRCPs repaired and firmed my skin, plus greatly reduced the appearance of lines, etc ...I still have looseness beneath my chin, but in only 7 months or so, it is thicker, but remember I didn't start this 'til I was 62 years old!

I have experimented with my face and skin so much, you wouldn't believe it! I've tried a lot of the "over-the-counter" products, but all ended up long on promises and short on results! I think I must have tried at least 20 products, LOL! Yes "Me", A GUY!...

I like the sides of my neck, and just the overall better appearance! At the time of the second pic I noticed the difference in my eyes a bit. But that is when I wondered is it the skin products or the eye exercises. Thus, I took some pics after not doing any exercises or skin care for a few days. Then only applied the skin care products. Since then I hardly touch my eye exercises! Only Skin Biology products!

I have repeatedly done this with pics of my eyes since then to prove a point....So what do ya think about that neck? LOL. My Best Regards to all of you!

SKIN CARE REGIMEN:
I started with three products! First of course, I used the Gentle Cleanser. Then Exfol Serum, which at the outset I found just a bit strong for my skin, so I diluted it with water 'til I used it all.

Emu Oil-S - After exfoliating I would use Emu Oil-S next, and my face literally soaked it in like a sponge! I loved how my face felt after using it, as I actually massaged my entire face and neck with it twice a day!

Next, I applied diluted CP Serum (2-3 drops of CP Serum mixed in the palm of my hand with a few drops water), as I had read to try it on top of an oil to avoid irritation and to give the skin time to adjust to the SRCPs. After first applying the SRCPs on top of the Emu Oil-S, I could feel a tightening effect. Plus my face and especially my neck began to have a nice glow to it!

After a few months of reading on the Skin Biology site that the Retinol in Squalane was also suitable for my skin, I decided to try it and eventually I switched to Exfol Cream.

On my eyes, at night only, I applied the Emu Oil-S first. Then, very diluted with water, CP Serum. Since I had gradually introduced my eyes to SRCPs by diluting it on top of the Emu Oil-S, I also ordered the CP Night Eyes as I thought they were now ready for direct application with an oil on top this time!

I now use Exfol Cream in the AM, followed by Retinol in Squalane, then only slightly diluted CP Serum...At night, after cleansing, I apply the diluted CP Serum first, then Retinol in Squalane on top, switching the order from the AM! On my eyes, I now apply the CP Night Eyes first on one night with the Squalane on top, and on the next night I reverse the order!

P.S. About the scalp: Forgot to mention this! I added Folligen and first tried Folligen Cream, now Folligen Spray. I do feel a difference in thickness! Many thanks!

MY GOALS:
My goal is to apply CP Serum first all of the time and CP Night Eyes too, followed by the Retinol in Squalane on top. But I'm just taking it slowly and enjoying it! I know how my skin felt and looked in May of 2005 (somewhat like tissue paper) and today over seven months later I see and feel a great difference! Thanks Skin Biology! I'm looking forward to trying other skin products from you!

Dear Skin Biology, I wanted to let you know of the great effect we are having using Super Cop 2X along with Emu Oil to tighten skin after weight loss. Our family friend had lost a nice amount of weight. In the abdominal area she was left with loose skin due to the weight loss. Its only been about 3 weeks but the improvement is very noticable as far as the skin tightening. I can't wait to see what it looks like after she continues using the Super Cop 2X and Emu Oil for months. All I can say is so far the results are great!!! I will write back with those results as well.

Thank You.

Just wanted to pass this on. I've had great results with skin firming, first with CP Serum, then with Super Cop. I apply Super Cop in dots on my face and neck. I've also observed significant lifting of the upper eye lids.

One thing I do that may be contributing to my great results is that I exfoliate like crazy. I do chemical peels, microdermabrasion, etc. I even lightly use a microdermabrasion cloth on my upper eye lids ...I have to say that I have seen results with Super Cop WITHIN DAYS.

-K.N.


Another thing I forgot to add was that I had a huge tightening of my stomach. I've been very consistent with peels and Super Cop 2X . I no longer have an apron of skin . Started august 2004 and still going .Oh yes and the eye area is looking good too as long as I don't overdo it.

-From Australia


I think 6 to 8 weeks [is a] minimum to see any tightening ...I've been using the products 6 months now and I don't use anything but Super Cop, Super CP Serum, Exfol Cream plus the lactic acid 10%. I've just ordered the 40% LA. My skin has tightened a lot especially under the eyes.

-G.K.
