Developed as an anti-wrinkle solution, Matrixyl 3000 has a unique lifting effect and restores and maintains a youthful, firming efficacy - incredibly effective for cutaneous reconstruction and repair of the dermal matrix - or put simply, it helps smooth wrinkles, but physiologically helps repair connective tissue and promotes healthy cell proliferation - key benefits for removal and prevention of stretch marks.
Excel skin care's advanced formula is specifically designed to reduce the appearance of stretch marks caused by pregnancy, weight gain, growth spurts, and bodybuilding. Our cream will greatly enhance the elasticity of the skin preventing new stretch mark scarring to occur. Excel uses a wide range of high performance ingredients composed of peptides, antioxidants, and natural extracts which work synergistically to reduce the appearance of deep stretch mark tissue and discoloration associated with the scarring.
Darutoside is the name for the active ingredient obtained from the herb Siegesbeckia orientalis. This herb has been used for centuries externally to sooth inflammation and stimulate wound healing, which it does through tissue regeneration by way of collagen matrix build up. A now expired patent by Pierre Fabre Medicaments describes Darutoside's ability to stimulate wound healing, to promote more regular tissue renewal, to increase the normal appearance of scars and to fully restore elasticity to damaged skin with collagen fibers arranged in regular fashion. Darutoside enriched total extracts of Siegesbeckia orientalis have shown anti-inflammatory properties, inhibition of collagenase and protection from UV induced erythema. This initial research led to an investigation of Darutoside's ability to restructure stretch marks. Stretch marks are caused by abnormal stretching of the dermis (pregnancy, change in weight), from a linear scar or from some endocrine disorders. In each case the stretch mark affects the elastin fibers in the middle dermis, which are diminished or disappear. Any effective treatment for stretch marks thus must restore normal quantities of collagen and elastin fibers.
