Dr. Martello Review

 Updated On:

Overview

The official website for the skin care range, Dr Martello’s Skin Essentials, tells us that this Company was formed following the collaboration between Dr Jeanette Martello, and the company already established Skin Essential. We are told that Dr Jeanette Martello is a qualified plastic surgeon who specializes in cosmetic surgery, and that she is also the brains behind a nationally distributed skin care magazine named Skin Deep. The Dr Martello’s Skin Essentials range is dedicated to anti-aging products for the skin. The anti-aging products in the range include the Dr Martello’s Skin Essentials Night Repair Skin Cream and the Dr Martello’s Skin Essentials Daily Measures Anti Wrinkle Serum. The company has a full money back guarantee upon purchase of any of the anti-aging products in their range.

Product Details

The official website for the Dr Martello’s Skin Essentials range tells us that the ingredients in the Anti Wrinkle Serum consist of Acetyl Hexapeptide 3 and Hyluronic Filling Spheres. Acetyl Hexapeptide 3 is also known under the trade name of Argireline. This anti-wrinkle serum is, of course, not the only anti-aging product for sale that contains Acetyl Hexapeptide 3. It can be purchased at a price of $49 directly from the official Dr Martello website. We are not, however, given any information as to what makes it more effective than the other products on the market that also contain Argireline.

We are told that this serum will reduce your wrinkles by 50%, but we are not presented with any information to back up these claims. Another anti-aging product in the Dr Martello’s Skin Essentials range is the Night Repair Cream. We are told that this cream contains Matrixyl 3000, Argireline, Shea Butter, Cocoa Butter and Vitamin A, Vitamin C, and Vitamin E. The website claims that this cream will reduce your lines and wrinkles. We do know that clinical tests have shown that Matrixyl 3000 can have an effect on lines and wrinkles. The official website for Dr Martello’s Skin Essentials range does not give any information regarding what distinguishes this cream from other rival anti-aging products that contain Matrixyl 3000.

The Good

  • There is an official website for Dr Martello.
  • Dr Martello is a qualified plastic surgeon.
  • The products in the Dr Martello’s Skin Essentials range can be ordered directly from the official website.

The Bad

  • The products in the Dr Martello’s Skin essentials range are not the only anti-aging products to contain Matrixyl 3000 and Argireline.
  • There is no offer of a free sample gift, which is disappointing compared to rival’s policies.
  • Some of the claims on the website are not backed up by evidence.

The Bottom Line

At the end of the day we have no information as to what makes the anti-aging creams in the Dr Martello’s Skin Essentials range superior to others available for sale with the same ingredients. We have seen similar products that have stronger manufacturer support to back them up, and that also offer more transparent scientific data to support their formulation.

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.
