Juva BioGel Review

 Updated On:

Overview

The Juva Skin and Laser Center and Medispa were founded by Dr. Bruce Katz in 1999 at the Mount Sinai Hospital in New York. Dr. Katz is a world renowned leader in the field of Laser Dermatology and Cosmetic Surgery, according to the official Juva website. Juva provides customized care in the Juva Health and Wellness Division, and the Juva Skin Laser Center and Medispa was named “The World’s Best Medispa” in 2004 by DaySpa Magazine. The company’s focus continues to be on maintaining optimal health and wellness through disease prevention, nutrition, weight management, and anti-aging strategies. Juva BioGel is one of the anti-aging products available from the Juva skin care line.

Product Details

The Juva BioGel was created with a special formulation to address many skin care issues and concerns and is a product that is designed for daily use. Juva BioGel claims to restore a vibrant, healthy glow to aged, stressed and sensitive skin, which is generally caused by over-exposure to the sun and environmental free radical damage, as well as skin deterioration which happens from smoking. The Juva BioGel contains an ingredient called PSP (Processed Skin Proteins) which is “a balance of essential skin nutrients including growth factors, interleukins and antioxidants”. PSP promises to revive the skin and to create a softer, firmer and younger looking complexion. The formula also contains sodium hyaluronate which, when combined with growth factors, are described as having a key role in wound healing. Juva BioGel is said to be suitable for all skin types including oily and problematic skin. Juva BioGel is free of alcohol, oils, fragrance and color additives.

The Good

  • Juva BioGel contains antioxidants and a collagen booster.
  • The website offers easy online ordering and a user-friendly website.
  • Juva provides access to scientific studies to educate customers about its products.

The Bad

  • Juva BioGel is sold for $150.00 which may not be affordable for the average consumer.
  • No money back guarantee or return policy is provided on Juva’s official product website.
  • Does not contain proven ingredients such as Matrixyl 3000 or Argireline.
  • Juva does not provide a complete list of product ingredients for BioGel.

The Bottom Line

Juva BioGel may not appeal to a large audience of consumers shopping the anti-aging market due to its high cost. Juva BioGel will likely appeal more to those who buy products from physicians who promote their own product lines. Consumers can expect highly effective anti-aging products that contain proven ingredients known to produce dramatic results. These types of products seem to receive the best customer ratings. Juva BioGel does not seem to offer the components used in many of the best items available. When making a skin care purchase online, it would be helpful if the company offered a free sample of the product and at the very least a 30 day money back guarantee for consumers who may be left unsatisfied with the 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.
