DermaSilk Review

 Updated On:

Overview

DermaSilk is a line of anti-aging treatments marketed to women with mature complexions. Similar to many other brands out there, these product aim to hydrate dry skin, tighten the face, smooth out wrinkles, prevent facial sagging and reduce the fine lines that come with age. There are currently six different DermaSilk products to choose from. These are called DermaSilk Anti-Wrinkle, Tightening Serum, Anti-Sagging, Facial Firming, Miracle Cream, Deep Skin Ultra Hydrating and Double Chin Facial Firming. Three of these products come in the form of an oral supplement, while the others are topical treatments, meant to be applied daily after cleansing.

The key active ingredients found in DermaSilk products are Collagen, Elastin, Vitamin E, Protein Peptides, Vitamin C, Glycolic Acid, Allantoin, Vitamin A and Glycerin. It is clarified on the official website that all six products are offered with a 100% satisfaction guarantee, which expires after 60 days. Although DermaSilk treatments are offered conveniently through the official website, they are also sold in drugstores like Walgreens. Currently there are no consumer reviews offered on the official website, but directions regarding how to use DermaSilk products are given. It appears that women can take the DermaSilk supplements in conjunction with using the topical treatments for optimal results.

Our Top Pick For 2009:  Dermapril-SP

Dermapril-SP was rated the best-in-class performer, with a cutting-edge formula and results visible immediately after use. Matrixyl 3000™, the primary active ingredient in Dermapril-SP, is backed by clinical research that showed reduction in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles of as much as 33% after two months of use. Additionally, the formula contains the European miracle ingredient Argatensyl™, which creates an immediate tightening effect on applied areas, making results visible within minutes of use.

The treatment helps the skin regain a more youthful biochemical makeup by supporting the natural production of three building blocks – Collagen, Fibronectin and Hyaluronic Acid. The result is a rapid rejuvenation, diminishing the appearance of wrinkles and other cosmetic signs of age caused by sun exposure, smoking, stress, and other common factors.

In clinical trials, Matrixyl 3000™ decreased the appearance of wrinkles by as much as 33% over a six week period. With the immediate tightening benefits of Argatensyl™, this formula has a completely unique combination of short-term cosmetic results as well as sustained, cumulative benefits to the skin. Common reported results include smoothing and firming; softer skin; diminished appearance of fine lines and wrinkles; and healthier looking, glowing skin. Based on the high cost and quality of the ingredients, Dermapril-SP is reasonably priced. Customer satisfaction seems high and Dermapril-SP offers a risk-free trial, so users can evaluate the product prior to paying the full retail price.
