StriVectin-HS is a unique penetrating formula developed to support the integrity of the Dermal-Epidermal Junction (DEJ) -- the wavy, thin line of cells between the dermis and epidermis, and a critical area in the fight against wrinkles and aging. New research strongly suggests that as we age, the DEJ 'flattens,' reducing overall surface area, weakening the bond between the dermis and epidermis, thus causing the formation of persistent, deep wrinkles. In other words, reducing the appearance of deep, sharp facial wrinkles is tied directly to fostering the structural integrity of the Dermal-Epidermal Junction. Frequently Asked Questions: Q: How does StriVectin-HS work? A: StriVectin-HS is a unique thermophyllic (heat-activated), penetrating formula specifically developed to enter the core of the DEJ where deep wrinkles begin. StriVectin-HS travels directly to the base of deep wrinkles, decompressing the look of sharp, visible creases from the dermal substratum upward and outward to the skinGÇÖs surface. Q: How do I use StriVectin-HS? A: You apply StriVectin-HS with your fingertips directly to the most pronounced wrinkles at the corners of the eye, between the brow, around the lips and down the nasolabial folds (the deep lines that run from the edge of your nose to the corners of your mouth). Wait one to three minutes or until the serum becomes dry and slightly tacky to the touch. You must then soak a clean facecloth in hot (not scalding) water (wring out excess water) and hold it firmly to your face for sixty seconds or until the towel cools. Q: How often can I use StriVectin-HS? A: Because StriVectin-HS is so effective at reducing the appearance of deep wrinkles and pronounced pores, and facial imperfections, you only use it twice a day until you achieve the results you desire, then one to three times per week to maintain your skinGÇÖs optimum appearance. Q: Can I use StriVectin-HS anywhere on my body, or just on my face? A: StriVectin-HS was developed specifically for the skin on the face and neck. Q: Can I use StriVectin-HS along with microdermabrasion products or dermabrasive treatments? A: Yes... depending on your microdermabrasion treatment. If your dermabrasion is administered by a doctor, you should use StriVectin-HS only with your doctorGÇÖs permission, of course. Q: Do I need to use a skin cream or another product following the application of StriVectin-HS? A: You can use anything you like. We recommend StriVectin-SD-« for reducing the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and crowsGÇÖ feet, and StriVectin-SD Eye Cream for application to the orbital eye area.
