DERMed Review

 Updated On:

Overview

DERMed, also known as Institut’ DERMed, is a skin care company that claims to focus on “education and innovation.” This company was founded in 1989 by a “master esthetician” named Lyn Ross. DERMed offers a MediClinical Spa and the DERMed College of Advanced Aesthetics in Atlanta, GA. Unlike most other skin care brands, DERMed offers skin treatments and skin education for their clients. Institut’ DERMed offers seven different categories for their skin products, which include Acne I, Aging, Sensitive, Lightening, Acne II and Acne III, Cellulite Rx and Body.

Institut’ DERMed claims to incorporate the “highest concentration of active ingredients” into their skin products. They endeavor to treat and assist with acne, brown spots, Rosacea, blackheads, photo aging, hyper pigmentation and sensitive complexions. “Chiral Technology” is a process adopted by Institut’ DERMed, which supposedly “isolates molecules to better fit skin cell receptor sites.” This is claimed to increase the effectiveness of DERMed treatments. Some of the primary active ingredients used in Institut’ DERMed skin products are L-Retinol (assists with skin cell turnover), Glycolic Acid (helps exfoliate dead skin), Kojic Acid, Gallic Acid, Shea Butter (helps sooth and moisturize skin) and Licorice Root extract (calms the skin). There are no customer testimonials offered on the official website. All Institut’ DERMed skin products are offered with a money-back guarantee but the products must be returned within 10 days after purchasing, which could not be a long enough time period to judge the product’s effectiveness.

Product Details

DERMed is a skin care brand that aims to assist women with typical skin dilemmas like acne, brown spots, Rosacea, blackheads, photo aging, hyper pigmentation and sensitive complexions. A few of the active key ingredients offered in Institut’ DERMed skin treatments are L-Retinol (assists with skin cell turnover), Glycolic Acid (helps exfoliate dead skin), Kojic Acid, Gallic Acid, Shea Butter (helps sooth and moisturize skin) and Licorice Root extract (calms the skin). All DERMed skin products can be purchased via the official website. No free trial samples of Institut’ DERMed treatments are offered through their website.

The Good

  • All Institut’ DERMed products can be acquired through the official website.
  • Institut’ DERMed skin treatments are suited for all common skin types.
  • Institut’ DERMed products contain some moisturizers.
  • There is a money-back guarantee offered on the official website (products must be returned within 10 days after purchasing).

The Bad

  • There are no customer testimonials offered on the Institut’ DERMed website.
  • Full product ingredient lists are absent from the official website.
  • Free trial samples of Institut’ DERMed treatments are not offered on the official website.
  • Some ingredients found in Institut’ DERMed skin products may not be suitable for some individuals.
  • There does not appear to be significant clinical research provided on the official website to support the claimed effectiveness of Institut’ DERMed products.

The Bottom Line

In some ways the Institut’ DERMed skin care line is unique compared to other brands. For example, most skin care lines don’t aim to educate their vendors with an actual college. However, the DERMed products themselves would likely be more marketable if the official website offered some significant clinical data to support the effectiveness of their skin treatments, free trial samples of the products, a more lenient satisfaction guarantee and full product ingredient lists.

** Our Top Skin Care Choice **

Top Wrinkle Cream for 2010: Hydroxatone

After looking at literally hundreds of wrinkle reduction and prevention treatments, Hydroxatone is our top choice. This product offers customers a Risk-Free Trial, and contains all four of the most effective and exciting ingredients for reversing and preventing wrinkles: Matrxyl 3000®+ Argireline® + SPF + Hyuloronic Acid. No other formula combines these ingredients into one cream, and the Hydroxatone® website has testimonials from customers who have seen results. Argireline® and Matrixyl 3000® are two clinically proven and patented wrinkle-fighting peptides, while SPF provides sun protection and Hyuloronic Acid penetrates tissue to keep skin young and supple. Clinical data that a formula works says it all, and the Hydroxatone® website provides ample proof. When you factor in the trial offer, the potent formula, the user testimonials and the clinical studies, it's easy to see why Hydroxatone is our top anti-aging pick. >> Read more about Hydroxatone

Optional – For Enhanced Results: Hydrolyze®

After looking at so many anti-aging treatments, we've seen that the delicate skin around the eyes can be a real problem area for many people. Dark circles can make you look years older, and for some people even a good night's sleep won't make them go away. That's why we were so excited to find Hydrolyze, which has been formulated by industry experts specifically as an under-eye treatment. The makers of Hydrolyze are so confident in their product that they offer potential users a Risk Free Trial so they can see the results for themselves. Hydrolyze contains the break-through ingredient Haloxyl, which has been shown to reduce under-eye discoloration between 40%-60% in a clinical case study. By offering consumers a way to erase the dark circles and wrinkles that often occur under the eyes, Hydrolyze is revolutionizing the skincare industry. >> Read more about Hydrolyze
