Philosophy Acne Kit
Acne is a genetic condition that can stay with you for the rest of your life. Quite simple, acne occurs when the shedding process of dead cells in the hair follicle goes awry. Instead of mixing with sebum in the sebaceous gland and being washed out through the pores, the follicle produces cells that stick together, mix with oil, and cause a bacterial reaction which results in at its mildest, a clogged pore and at its most extreme, a cyst.
This is a 4-step program for treating acne. Step 1-suppress excessive pimple causing oil production. Step 2-shed the pore wall. Step 3-help sanitize the skin to protect against bacteria. Step 4-seal the skin to help keep the good treatments in and the bad elements out.
Kelo-cote Scar Gel
Advanced Bio-Technologies, Inc. has developed a revolutionary and patented product that maintains the positive benefits of silicone gel sheets while eliminating the concerns and limitations associated with their use.
Kelo-cote® is an innovative topical silicone gel for the management of scars and for the prevention of abnormal scars in the form of hypertrophic scars and keloids. It is indicated for scars resulting from trauma, surgery, burns or other events that result in broken skin.
Kelo-cote® gel self-dries to a waterproof, gas permeable membrane that acts like an extra layer of skin. It helps to soften, flatten and smooth the scar while maintaining the moisture balance and elasticity of the adjacent skin. It has also been shown to reduce the discoloration and itching associated with scars.
For the management and prevention of scars, Kelo-cote® can be used as soon as the break in the skin is closed (i.e. after stitches are removed).
