BIOCUTIS™ Skin Treatment Products:

BIOSKINCARE ™
A deeply moisturizing natural skin care cream that triggers the regeneration of damaged cells and replenishes the lipid barrier of the skin while preventing and removing scars from accidental injuries and post surgery; stretch marks; hypertrophic and keloid scars; keratois pilaris, actinic keratosis, dermatitis, psoriasis scales and all types of skin blemishes.50 gram jar = $59.98 and for two or more 20% discount.

BIOSKINEXFOL ™
A home microdermabrasion cream for acne scars and deep cleansing of skin. With the same high quality micro-crystals professionals use to breakdown hard, rough and old scar tissues, and allow for a deeper penetration of our exclusive all natural skin moisturizing and regeneration complex contained in the microdermarasion cream. 120 gram (4 oz) jar = $79

BIO STRETCH MARK CREAM ™
To prevent pregnancy stretch marks, strengthen fragile skin, firm sagging breasts and body areas and reduce cellulite. It also works for newly formed stretch marks and scars, while BIOSKINEXFOL works best for old, rough and raised marks. This is similar to the cream in BIOSKINCARE, in a more economical container, with 6 oz. but for use only on the body, not on the face, because it contains a higher concentration of our natural biological complex which results in an invisible film that retains in moisture by occluding the area where it is applied but may feel a little tacky on the face. 6 oz (180g) tottle = $119.00

BIO SKIN REJUVENATION™

Same cream base and enzymes as in BIOSKINCARE to "digest" or dissolve blemishes, speed skin turnover and tighten skin, and an added ingredient: human growth factor peptide, derived from the melanocyte-stimulating-hormone. Blocks melanin synthesis, and reduces the formation of unwanted pigmentation, allowing control over skin tone and brown spots. Leaves skin bright and refreshed! 50 gram jar = $69.98.

BIOSKINCLEAR™
Oil free moisturizing gel for acne treatment, rosacea skin care and facial acne scars. The product is based on a natural substance secreted by a little animal to function as its powerful immune modulator and skin regeneration trigger. Removes dead cells, unclogs sebum canals and dissolves scar tissues by enzymatic hydrolysis, without peeling. Promotes the proliferation of antimicrobials that control acne bacteria. Boosts reproduction of glycosaminoglycans, the molecules that retain water, thus truly moisturizing the skin from within. Tells the body it is being taken care off and can moderate an otherwise extreme inflammatory reaction that may end up destroying healthy skin cells together with bacteria and sebum that has turned into a foreign matter. 50 gram (1.76 oz) airless pump bottle $49 and 20% off for two or more.

(*) Research
1.- Evaluation of the Anti-Wrinkle and Reaffirming Efficacy of a Cryptomphalus Aspersa-based Product (CAS) in the Treatment of Skin Photoaging. M.J. Tribó, E. Serra-Baldrich, M. Asin, J.A. Camarasa. Dermatología & Cosmética, March (vol IX), 1999.

2.- Biochemical and Pharmacological Mechanisms Related to the Activity of Cryptomphalus aspersa in Radiodermatitis. A. Brieva, A. Guerrero, J.P. Pivel. Dermatología & Cosmética, 2001. Investigations on CAS antioxidant activity: superoxide dismutase (SOD), conjugated enzymes such as glutathione-S-transferase (GSH-T), and low molecular weight antioxidants.

3.- A Natural Adaptogen for the Skin. A. Brieva, A. Guerrero, J.P. Pivel. Dermatología & Cosmética, 1998. Detailed description of two of the main biological properties of CAS: its capacity to stimulate the proliferation of human and murine fibroblasts, particularly those with very low baseline proliferative activity, and the stimulation of collagenase activity.

Mother Nature's Healing Powers - Natural Products As Healing Agents
For thousands of years people all over the world have used extracts from plants, frog skin, snail skin and mucus and other animals to promote healing of cutaneous wounds, burns and infectious diseases.

Biochemical analysis of the substance we use in our products shows it contains complex glycoconjugate molecules made mainly of sulfated sugar or carbohydrate chains (sugar= glyco), globular soluble proteins, uronic acids and oligoelements ( copper, zinc, calcium and iron ).

The major organic (i.e. carbon-containing) components of human cells are proteins, lipids, various carbohydrates and carbohydrate-containing molecules, and the nucleic acids (DNA and RNA). The carbohydrate-containing molecules can be quite complex; those in which carbohydrates are attached to proteins or lipids are called glycoconjugates. There are three major classes of glycoconjugates: glycoproteins, proteoglycans, and glycolipids.

Glyco means "sweet" and refers to monosaccharides, or sugars. The role of carbohydrates (sugars) in energy production has been long understood. However, their additional, crucial role in orchestrating the healthy structure and function of the body is a relatively new discovery that is the subject of a new bourgeoning field of science called the “ sweet science of glycobiology ”.
