Renuven Review

 Updated On:

Overview

The official website for the anti-aging cream Renuven tells us that this cream works in two ways. We are told that it makes lines and wrinkles disappear and that it stimulates the skin to generate collagen. One of the main active ingredients in Renuven is Green Tea Extract. Green Tea Extract is one of the most popular ingredients in anti-aging treatments on the market today due to its strong antioxidant properties. Renuven is certainly not the only anti-aging treatment on the market today to contain Green Tea Extract.

Product Details

The official website for Renuven contains before and after photos of those who have used this product. There are also testimonials posted by those who have used Renuven. We are told that the ingredients in this cream include Almond Oil, Green Tea Extract and Grape Seed Oil. We are not, however, given any information by the manufacturers of this product as to what distinguishes it from other anti-aging products on the market that contain similar ingredients. We are told that this cream will stimulate collagen. We know that as we age the amount of collagen in the skin decreases and that this leads to signs of aging such as lines, wrinkles and sagging of the skin. Clinical trials have shown that peptide combinations such as Matrixyl 3000 can have a very positive effect on the synthesis and stimulation of collagen. Renuven can be ordered directly from the official website at a price of $9.95.

The Good

  • There is an official website for Renuven.
  • The official website contains before and after pictures and also testimonials by those who have used Renuven.
  • At a purchase price of $9.95 Renuven is relatively inexpensive.

The Bad

  • The ingredients which are present in Renuven can be found in a whole host of other anti-aging products on the market.
  • We are told this cream will stimulate collagen but there are now powerful peptide combination available which have been shown to have a powerful effect on collagen stimulation.
  • There is no offer of a free trial sample via the official website;
  • We are presented with no clinical evidence that shows how Renuven is more effective than other anti-aging treatments which contain Green Tea Extract as a major active ingredient.

The Bottom Line

There are hundreds of anti-aging products on the market today that contain Green Tea Extract as a major active ingredient. Consumers are therefore really spoiled for choice. Although Renuven is very reasonably priced, we have no evidence that it is superior to other products which contain Green Tea Extract as a major active ingredient and therefore we cannot recommend it over and above other similar products.

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.
