Healthy Skin
Cosmeceuticals such as Effulgere products are an important component of any
comprehensive skin rejuvenation program. Skin rejuvenation procedures improve
the overall appearance of the skin by achieving a more freshened skin appearance
and restoring elasticity. While they do not have the same effect as surgery, they
often prolong the time until a facelift is needed. To clarify, surgery takes away "sags
and bags" while skin rejuvenation minimizes wrinkles and pores, and improves the
tone and texture of the skin. Today, our advanced techniques allow us to tailor a
skin rejuvenation program specifically designed to match your skin type, lifestyle,
general health, and desires. In customizing a skin rejuvenation program to meet an
individual’s needs these factors must be taken into account.
Aging Process
In order to understand how skin rejuvenation
techniques work, it is essential to understand the
aging process. As we age, a number of things
happen. Our skin loses moisture and elasticity, fat
redistributes, muscles and skin become more lax,
and bones start to reabsorb. Wrinkles (rhytids) are
the first signs of this aging process. The skin folds
or "bags" are the most advanced signs, which
require removal of the excess skin.
How to use Effulgere
- In the morning and at bedtime, gently wash your face with a mild
cleanser and pat dry.
- Apply a pea-sized amount (1/4 inch in diameter) of Effulgere to each of
the four quadrants of your face (forehead, cheeks, and chin) and
gently massage. You may detect a mild medicinal smell and experience
a slight ‘tingling” sensation, both of which will quickly dissipate.
- After applying Effulgere in the morning, you can continue with your
normal makeup routine.
- After applying Effulgere at bedtime you can enjoy a restful night of
sleep knowing that no other products or moisturizers are necessary,
only Effulgere!
Skin Care Tips when using Effulgere
While using Effulgere you can continue your routine skin care program and to use the makeup of your choice.
While Effulgere does contain strong antioxidants which help to reverse sun damage, the continued use of a
sunscreen (SPF 15 or higher) that provides protection from both UVA and UVB rays is strongly recommended.
Facial products which contain stringent or menthol may cause irritation to your skin and should be avoided.
Also, keep hair dye and permanent wave solutions off your face, as these agents may cause skin irritation.
Electrolysis, hair depilatories and waxing of your facial skin may cause irritation and should be used with
extreme caution. If skin irritation develops as a consequence of any of these irritants immediately discontinue
use and contact your doctor.
What to Expect
In the first 1-2 months you should begin to notice that your skin has a softer texture and is becoming smoother.
By months 3-4 frequently fine facial wrinkles begin to diminish and areas of irregular pigmentation begin to
lighten. By this time, an overall improvement in the texture, appearance, and tone of the skin is generally
observed. Typically, continued improvement is experienced for months to come.
Let Effulgere Awaken the Sleeping Beauty in You!
One of the secrets to beauty is healthy, attractive skin. While we cannot stop the aging process, there are things
that we can do on a daily basis to revitalize and rejuvenate our skin. Attractive skin, more than any other single
factor, serves to enhance one’s overall beauty and attractiveness. The word effulgere in Latin means "to cause to
shine with abundance of light; to radiate; to beam". We believe this name symbolizes beautiful skin.
Working together a leading cosmetic surgeon and a research chemist invented the proprietary technology behind
this newly developed line of advanced skin rejuvenation creams. These formulations are based on a unique
combination of chemical components that results in a system that allows the active rejuvenating agents to
penetrate deeper into the skin for enhanced results. This new formulation also includes technically
advanced anti-oxidants for more dramatic results. Our testing has shown that despite the dramatically increased
potency, these rejuvenation creams can be used daily even by those with the most delicate and sensitive skin.

SYNERGISTIC USE OF EFFULGERE
and EFFULGERE PM IN COMBINATION
Effulgere and Effulgere PM provide a dual
combination of advanced anti-aging creams which
work synergistically to rejuvenate your skin. Effulgere
and Effulgere PM are specially formulated to provide
protection and rejuvenation day and night. Utilizing a
proprietary formulation, these creams are able to
penetrate deeper into the dermal layers of the skin to
achieve maximum effectiveness. Advanced
antioxidants not only protect the skin, but work to
restore skin damaged by oxidative changes induced
by environmental changes and aging.
Effulgere and Effulgere PM can be used in combination with your current skin care program. However, we find that
most patients believe that Effulgere and Effulgere PM used in tandem on a daily basis is all they need for a total
skin rejuvenation program.
Some patients are able to use Effulgere Plus or Effulgere Ultra in place of standard Effulgere in such synergistic
skin treatment programs. In such cases the patient would use Effulgere Plus or Effulgere Ultra in the morning
and then use Effulgere PM in the evening.
Skin Rejuvenation Techniques
Skin rejuvenation can be divided into different categories - light, medium, and deep treatments. Light treatments
involve lotions and creams. These are physically applied on a daily basis and have the advantage of no "down
time" for convalescence. One can apply these lotions and continue their normal daily and social activities without
any interruption. The objective of this first level of skin rejuvenation is to provide a more refreshed appearance to
the skin and also, over time, remove some of the more superficial skin contouring aging changes such as minor
pigmentation, scaling, and very fine wrinkling.

Effulgere skin cream can be used to moisturize and rejuvenate skin that has
been damaged by exposure to the elements, sunlight or which has simply
been affected by intrinsic aging. It can also be used to slow the rate of photo
induced aging to maintain beautiful skin tone and texture over the years. It
inhibits the formation of wrinkles and in some cases reduces the depth of
existing wrinkles or eliminates them entirely. In some cases, Effulgere skin
cream also lightens age spots and other types of blemishes associated with
aging. The effectiveness of all skin care products is contingent upon delivery
of the active ingredients through the stratum corneum and viable dermis into
the dermis layer of the skin structure. This is because the active ingredients
in the skin care products cannot be effective unless they penetrate into the
dermal layers of living skin cells.
It is normally a difficult proposition for water-soluble ingredients, such as
ascorbic acid, because the stratum cornea is an excellent water barrier. The
key to the effective action of Effulgere is based upon the penetration of
beneficial agents deep into the skin. These beneficial ingredients include an
array of antioxidants, vitamin C, vitamin E, zinc, lactic acid, and phenylalanine.
Effulgere facial cream was invented after many years of research and testing and is the subject of patents
pending in the United States and a number of foreign countries. Preliminary studies at a leading university
showed that Effulgere creams used on a daily basis reduced skin wrinkling, increased skin collagen formation,
and increased levels of a tissue growth factor that significantly reduces the chance of skin cancer.
Aging Skin Changes
During the aging process, the top layer
of the skin (stratum corneal), which is a
layer of dead skin cells, builds up and
thickens. When this happens, our skin
can develop a sallow look and small
"expression lines" can develop. In
addition to this, there is a gradual
breakdown of collagen and elastic
fibers in deeper layers of the skin.
Sun exposure or "photo aging" can
dramatically increase the breakdown of
elastic tissues and can lead to skin
wrinkling.
