Clinical
Study
Dermyn, unlike many imitators,
has been clinically tested by scientists and
dermatologists. These tests have been crucial
in Smart Science Laboratories' decision to
bring Dermyn to the North American consumer.
Smart Science is dedicated to providing only
the highest quality products for the good
of its customers. As you can see below, Dermyn
is a revolutionary product that has not only
been proven to provide fast visible results,
but also long-term improvement in facial skin.
"Study
design and execution was supervised by Dr. Marta
Kallio, Handens Hospital, Stockholm, Sweden.
The study was carried out by the Swedish R&D
company Adderma AB, specializing in development
of active skin care."
"Nineteen
subjects (age 33-65) were included in the study.
The subjects were instructed to clean the face
and apply active serum on one side of face and
vehicle (placebo) on the other. A small dot was marked
on the cheek of subjects below the eye. Immediately
after application the subjects were photographed
using VISIA. A new photograph was taken after
45 minutes. Changes in dot position was then
compared in order to evaluate possible influence
on skin firmness (keratinocyte contraction),
which would manifest in dot movement in "the
right direction", i.e. upwards, as a sign
of less sagginess and under eye bags."
"The
study showed significant and visible effect
on skin firmness on treated side of face compared
to vehicle (placebo) side, which showed no effect.
On 15 out of 19 subjects the dot moved (upwards)
on side of face treated with active serum (containing
Tricutan®). The pilot study of a facial
serum containing Tricutan® has shown that
cosmetic treatments can indeed have instant
and visible effects on cellular level."
Dr.
Beitner Skin Firmness Study
In
the second study, written up as a "Report
on a randomized, controlled, split-face study
on the clinical efficacy and tolerability of
a cosmetic gel related to facial skin firmness," by Harry Beitner, M.D., Ph.D. Department of
Dermatology, Karolinska University Hospital,
included 33 women between
33-75 years. The clinical evaluations took place
at the start of the study and after 4, 8 and
12 weeks of treatment. The subjects used the
active gel used in Dermyn on one side of the
face and a control gel on the other side of
the face. The subjects did not know which one
was the active gel in the treatment. After 12
weeks, the results showed statistically significant
improvement in skin firmness on the side treated
with the active gel. The median improvement
on the active side was 75% and 0% on the non-active
side. No side-effects were noted. The dermatological-allergological
test was passed with the rating "very good"
and the tolerance of the product was also rated
as "very good."
Dr.
Sommerfield Skin Firmness Study
In
2007, Dr. Sommerfeld published her research
on the efficacy of Tricutan® in Phytomedicine:
International Journal of Phytotherapy and Phytopharmacology.
Conducted at the Dermatology Clinic in Lidingö,
Sweden, Dr. Sommerfeld's study involved 28 women,
aged 34 to 67 years, in good general physical
and psychological health.
Each
participant was given a bottle of Tricutan® and a bottle containing a placebo gel. The women
were instructed to apply one mixture to the
left side of their face and the other to the
right side every morning and evening. Three
of the women developed contact dermatitis and
withdrew from the study.
At the end of four weeks, the researchers used
ultrasound waves to measure skin firmness in
the remaining participants. Overall, it was
determined that the skin that had been treated
with Tricutan® was notably firmer than skin
treated with the placebo.
The
apparent success of Tricutan® in promoting
better skin tone prompted Dr. Sommerfeld to
suggest further research into the possibility
that treatment with Tricutan® may delay
a person's need for facelift surgery.
