Dry and dehydrated skin is a very common condition (suffered by 15 - 20% of population) that occurs at all ages. Usually, it doesn't represent a serious problem but it can be uncomfortable and unsightly, creating fine lines and wrinkles. It is normally characterized by an excessive Trans-Epidermal Water Loss (TEWL) due to a deficiency in skin lipids (ceramides and free fatty acids). The main reasons for this increasing problem are facts like climate changes, use of aggressive soaps and detergents, changes in diet or the effects of a reduced ozone layer. The Gerovital H3 Derma+ Active Moisturizing Cream is designed to restore the hydrolipidic barrier and balance out the deep moisture shortage of dry skin, stimulating cells' ability to retain water. It incorporates high-performance active ingredients that help you delay aging signs. Ceramidyl-Omega 3-6-9 - repairs and strengthens the epidermal barrier function of the skin, increasing its water-holding capacity.Improves elasticity, hydration and skin comfort, reduces the effect of the wrinkles and the exfoliation characteristic of aged complexions. SepiliftTM DPHP - protects and reinforces skin structure, having a triple firming action: it stimulates remodeling and contraction of collagen fibers, protects elastic fibers against enzymatic breakdown and scavenges free radicals. Aquaxyl - moisturizes and restructures the skin by increasing the content of Hyaluronic Acid. Prevents dehydration by stimulating the production of ceramides and the synthesis of proteins. Urea - It is a natural component of our skin's tissues and makes up to around 7% of our natural moisturizing factor. Urea has good water-binding and exfoliating properties for skin and also can speed up the rate of epithelialization of epidermis lesions.
