Dr. Ciraldo Review

 Updated On:

Overview

The Dr. Ciraldo line of skin care products was developed by Dr. Laura Ciraldo, a Florida dermatologist. The Dr. Ciraldo line includes cleansers, toners, moisturizers, acne treatments and sun protection. In the Rejuvenate line, there are several creams and masks that are said to boost the production of collagen and elastin in order to reverse the appearance of aging. One of these products is called Wri-Lax, and it claims to minimize the depth and appearance of “expression lines”. The company’s website references a clinical study that concludes that the active ingredient in Wri-Lax, Argiriline, is effective for reducing wrinkles by up to 50% in four weeks.

All of the Dr. Ciraldo products can be purchased directly from the company’s website. However, there does not appear to be a satisfaction guarantee offered. Also, there is no indication that product samples or trial sizes are available to test out the product before you purchase it.

Product Details

As we are most interested in anti-wrinkle products in this review, let’s take a closer look at Dr. Ciraldo’s Wri-Lax. The main active ingredient in Wri-Lax is Argiriline, a peptide that has shown great promise in boosting collagen production and firming and smoothing skin. Wri-Lax also contains hyaluronic acid, which is another ingredient often found in higher-quality anti-wrinkle formulations. Hyaluronic acid holds on to water and deeply hydrates the skin. There are several other active ingredients in Wri-Lax, including green tea extract and Vitamins A and E.

What is concerning about the Dr. Ciraldo products is that there doesn’t appear to be a full ingredient listing available. This makes it difficult if not impossible to assess whether the product contains synthetic colors, fragrances or “fillers”. Those with allergies or sensitive skin should consider avoiding this product until they can study a full list of ingredients. Wri-Lax is marketed as a great alternative for those too young to start Botox treatments or as a companion to Botox treatments for enhanced effect.

The Good

  • Contains Argiriline, a clinically-proven anti-aging ingredient.
  • Dr. Ciraldo Products are developed by a dermatologist.
  • Can purchase products on company’s website.

The Bad

  • No full ingredient list is available.
  • Not labeled as non-allergenic.
  • Does not appear to be a money back guarantee from Dr. Brandt.
  • No product samples are available.

The Bottom Line

Some of the Dr. Ciraldo’s products, especially the Wri-Lax serum, show much promise when first looked into. However, it is extremely difficult to recommend a skin care product that does not have a full list of its ingredients available and does not have a money-back guarantee if the product does not live up to the consumers’ expectations. With the signature Wri-Lax product retailing for around $100 for a 1.1 oz tube, purchasing it without a guarantee as to its effectiveness means that you can be out of pocket and out of luck if the product doesn’t work for you. There are many anti-wrinkle products on the market that contain Argiriline and also have their full ingredient list available with a money-back guarantee. You may wish to research the benefits of these products before purchasing this one.

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
