System II Defend

System II Defend is a system by the company known as Skinceuticals (http://www.vfhcinc.com/products.html) that is used to restore a youthful appearance to aging skin and to help protect it from any more environmental damage.

It is more of maintenance program that one that uses to aggressively fight skin hyperpigmentation or wrinkles. It is also fairly expensive and typically sold online for about $175. The price might be higher or possibly discounted if you buy the popular System II Defend system through a high end salon.

There are four products in this system which is usually sold as a complete kit in its own little make up bag. There are pore cleansing, anti-aging, moisturizer, and anti-aging products that can be used alone or in conjunction with other skin rejuvenation treatments or almost any acne care system (http://www.vfhcinc.com/catalog/index.php?cPath=27).

To maximize the effectiveness of these treatments you need to use the products as directed, which is usually once in the morning and once at night. If you do not use them every day you may not get the guaranteed spectacular results that most people experience when they start using the System II Defend. This is also an all purpose regimen which is designed for all skin types and all ages of skin. It is not really geared to one problem or age group.

The first component of the System II Defend Kit is called Serum 15 AOX+ and it neutralizes free radicals and helps defends against environmental damage. It also helps prevent early signs of aging. It is a very lightweight and fast acting serum that combines ferulic acid with 15% pure vitamin C to enhance the free radical fighting (antioxidant) power of the serum.

The second component of the kit is called Hydrating B5 Gel. This is enriched with vitamin B5 and helps with tissue repair. It replenishes the nutrients lost due to aging and helps the skin to feel smoother.

Daily Sun Defense is another component of System II Defend and it contains a broad spectrum sunscreen that contains 5% transparent zinc oxide so all harmful U.V. rays are completely blocked out. This includes both the UVA and UVB rays that cause extensive skin wrinkling.

This is a moisturizing sunscreen that can be applied under makeup. It also does not contain oil, fragrance or PABA. It is recommended for use with Vitamin C treatments and will help optimize the benefits of your daily moisturizer. The active ingredient is hyraluronic acid which binds moisture to the skin.

The fourth component of the kit is a cosmetic concoction called "Foaming Cleanser" that removes oils and debris from pores and leaves the skin feeling super clean and refreshed. It is ideal for removing make up and preparing the skin for advanced antioxidant treatment. It contains gentle non allergenic ingredients that help allay any skin irritation.

However, similar to any type of skin cream or lotion you may use, the products in this system can cause skin irritation. You should stop using System II Defend if you experience any skin irritation.

Dermatology

Dermatology is the branch of medical science that studies the body's largest organ "skin", its components, functions and reactions of the goods to various pathologies that arise daily.

Dermatologists are the people responsible for development, research, advancement and skin treatments. These are medical professionals specializing in the design and complexity of human dermatological system problems.

Dermatology is divided into several branches such as: cosmetics and dermatology clinic. Each one in their field are responsible for preventing, treating, relieve and restore the good condition of the dermis with which we are born due to the constant damage that is suffered daily, caused by factors such as pollution, UV rays, poor nutrition and even hereditary factors that may cause damage in the course of our lives.

Cosmetic Dermatology is based on the recovery treatment, correction of marks left by diseases such as acne and chicken pox. This specialty of dermatology has been developing since the mid-70s where the study and implementation of cosmetic creams with cellularly recuperative benefits began to bear fruit.

Today, cosmetic dermatology has developed to such an extent that the implementation of lasers for cell recovery and physical correction marks left by the diseases suffered, he makes time to never have expected. Also appearing on the cosmetic market of medicinal ointment for the treatment type of problems as common now as the stains are left by the sun and cellulite problems, give the cosmetic dermatology field increasing both the market cosmetics and in medical practice.

The breakthrough in cosmetic dermatology was when he began the study of the laser, being different reactions at the cellular level. This resulted in the modification and amoldacion thereof to all skin types, this development is probably the biggest step he could to cosmetic dermatology, and that treatments are noninvasive, require no recovery time and the results are given more short term.

The dermatology clinic is in turn responsible for the treatments to a pathological level, that is to say, handles serious diseases like skin cancer, alopecia, dermatitis and viral warts, among others.

The dermatology clinic is based study of severe illness usually caused by hereditary factors, their major difference lies in cosmetic dermatology treatments. Because the treatment of clinical dermatology at the majority of cases are invasive and processed for routine medications, are not aesthetic, only healthy character.

It should be noted that the development of dermatology is increasing and the implementation of cosmetic dermatology clinic is becoming more present, a great example of this is the surgical removal of living tissue of any part of the body to correct another where the tissue is affected.
