The PhysicianManaged® 12% Antioxidant Complex Lotion w/Peptides contain a scientifically formulated moisturizing base and glycolic acid that helps exfoliate dead skin cells and replace them with new, healthier cells. Glycolic acid also increases blood flow to the skin, assists in waste product removal, and allows more efficient nutrient intake. This helps elastin and collagen regenerate, therefore the skin takes on a brighter, more glowing appearance.
The antioxidant complex lotion also contains a combination of 8% peptides, magnanese, zinc, and copper. This combination enhances collagen and elastin production. The antioxidant complex lotion has vitamin C, the vitamin C utilized in the lotion is unique in that it is both soluble in both water and oil. This helps it penetrate to the deeper layers of the skin, increasing collagen production.
Vitamin E compounds called tocotrienols and tocopherols have been added to the lotion. These antioxidants dissolve in the skin’s oils and increase collagen products, and improve elasticity. Alpha-lipoic acid and DMAE are other antioxidants in the lotion, that help protect the skin from free radical challenges.
