Wrinkle Repair Booster Pack


 E-mailPrintSaveSave as PDF

 Maybe you were a "sun worshipper" when you were younger or were active in competitive outdoor sports.  But, whatever the reason, your skin is aging a little faster than you'd like.  Let's start to reverse that trend.
    You already have good basic products in your kit, but this will add three products to boost that further.  If you're not happy with brown spots or redness due to sun exposure, you may want to consider some of the gentle lasers that remove signs of sun damage too, like an IPL for photorejuvenation.  See the Guide to Cosmetic Treatments in our Resources section.
     Here's your repair regimen:
Morning:
     First:    SkinMedica TNS Recovery Complex (cell growth factors; think fertilizer for your skin)
     Second:    SkinMedica Vitamin C Complex (antioxidant; prevents and repairs damage to cell DNA)
     Third:    Your normal sunscreen
Evening:
     First:    SkinMedica Retinol Complex (Vitamin A Serum; builds collagen and normalizes sun-damaged cells) (if your skin gets red or irritated with this retinol product, apply your moisturizer first, then wait 20 minutes, then apply the retinol)
     Second:    Your normal moisturizer

#2Wrinkle Repair Booster Pack
All Products: $272.20
I picked these products to work together as a wrinkle repair Booster Pack. You'll get antioxidant repair, cell growth factors in the TNS Recovery Complex, and a retinol serum.

It's best to use these together in my regimen, but you can also browse the individual products below.

$147.25

Anti-Aging

Skin Medica

TNS Recovery Complex

SkinMedica pioneered the use of cell growth factors (these are like fertilizers for your skin) with this TNS Recovery Complex. Rest assured, the current version has a better fragrance than the original. No product is a quick fix, so you need to give this 3 to 6 months to see results.

$85.50

Repair / Antioxidant

Skin Medica

Vitamin C + E Complex

This 15% vitamin C serum is in a light base that will not aggravate oiliness or clog pores. The vitamin antioxidants do have science behind them proving their effectiveness, unlike some other skin care products. Prevents and repairs damage to cell DNA.

$50.35

Repair / Retinol

Skin Medica

Retinol Complex

This contains three forms of retinol plus vitamin E in a light base that will not clog pores and is still compatible with moisturizers and sunscreens. Retinols are another type of repair cream that have science behind them. They build collagen and normalize sun damaged keratinocytes (skin cells). And if this product irritates your skin a little, try applying your moisturizer first, then wait 10-20 minutes, then apply this.
