How is PREVAGE® different from other anti-aging treatments?
PREVAGE® is a skincare product that does it all. PREVAGE® contains Idebenone, the most powerful antioxidant* with an EPF® (Environmental Protection Factor™) rating of 95, proven to minimize the effects of oxidation on the skin, a leading cause of visible aging signs. Tests show a reduction in the appearance of lines, wrinkles, age spots, discolorations and an improvement in the look of firmness and sun damaged skin.
Can anyone use Prevage or is it recommended for certain skin types?
PREVAGE® is effective for all skin types – and can be used by women and men seeing visible signs of aging on the skin (lines, wrinkles, age spots, discoloration, sun damage or loss of firmness).
I’m in my early 30’s and still have some acne issues – are there any treatments that can help prevent breakouts AND prevent against aging?
The treatment should begin with proper cleansing both in the morning and at night, and once a week, use a very mild cleansing exfoliator to help make sure pores do not clog. In the morning, follow with a moisturizer that contains sunscreens and antioxidants, such as PREVAGE® Day SPF 30 to protect the skin from free radicals which can be formed from the UV rays and as a by product of bacteria.
My eyes always have dark circles – how can I get rid of them?
PREVAGE® Eye Anti-aging Moisturizing Treatment is a targeted treatment for the delicate eye area that delivers Idebenone and I-seryl Complex, helping to minimize the look of dark circles and also helps to fight crow’s feet and under-eye puffiness. Use PREVAGE® Eye morning and night and see a significant reduction in the appearance of dark circles (89% of consumers tested over six weeks did).**
Is it bad to wear a moisturizer with SPF at night?
The skin functions differently during the day than at night. During the day it is essential to wear a moisturizer with SPF and antioxidant protection. At night, you need a product that will help enhance skin’s own natural repair process. While wearing an SPF at night is not known to be harmful, it will not provide skin with the optimum benefits of a nighttime treatment. PREVAGE® Day SPF 30 provides both broad spectrum SPF protection and moisture to defend skin from the harmful effects of UV rays. PREVAGE® Night can help skin recover from daytime assaults and environmental aggressors. Using both in your daily skincare regimen will provide maximum anti-aging benefits.
I’ve heard of using anti-aging products to prevent signs of aging but I already have some wrinkles – is there anyway to make them less visible?
The best way to visibly minimize the look of lines and wrinkles is to ensure you are following the basic rules of skincare – plenty of hydration (in the form of a moisturizer and drinking a lot of water), cleansing skin twice daily and removing all make-up before bed. In addition to that, using a daily SPF and a moisturizer with potent antioxidants (such as Idebenone, featured in the PREVAGE® formulas) will help correct the look of existing lines and wrinkles while also protecting from future damage.
Is it true that dry skin makes you more prone to wrinkles?
Yes. Dehydrated skin cannot function well, and as a result collagen and other protein production is curtailed leading to a loss of firmness which leads to the formation of lines and wrinkles. Moisture is essential for the skin and needs the proper balance in order to maintain the processes that the cells need to keep the skin healthy and age free. To ensure your skin is properly hydrated, use a moisturizer in the morning that contains SPF (PREVAGE® Day SPF30), a nourishing moisture cream at night (PREVAGE® Night) and drink plenty of water.
I tanned A LOT as an adolescent. I wasn’t worried about sun damage then but I am now. Is there any way to reverse some of the damage that I may have caused?
PREVAGE® anti-aging formulas all contain power-antioxidant Idebenone, and have proven protective and corrective benefits. PREVAGE® helps minimize the visible effects of sun damage – fine lines, wrinkles, age spots discolorations, and freckles and even helps ease the look of redness and minor scars. Women who use PREVAGE® have reported dramatic improvements in the overall appearance of their skin, and 94% have noticed enhanced benefits when pairing PREVAGE® Face with PREVAGE® Day SPF 30.
