Zo Skin Health Growth Factor Serum 30ml/ 1 Fl. Oz.

Product Information

With growth factor technology, the serum is meant to stimulate collagen growth and production within your body. With the additional collagen found in your body, it’s only natural that you’ll see improvements in skin health and skin appearance. Make sure to use SPF with any retinol or retinoid product as FDA studies indicate that retinyl palmitate, when applied to the skin in the presence of sunlight, may increase sensitivity to the sun. Another physical exfoliant in this formula is sodium bicarbonate — aka baking soda. While baking soda is abrasive and will exfoliate the skin, the majority of skincare experts consider it to be too harsh.

Growth factors – stimulate the production of type 1 collagen, increase fibroblast division and enhance skin density. Formulas combine evidenced-based ingredients (retinol, vitamin C, AHAs, etc.) with proprietary ingredients Bottom line: ZO Skin Health Exfoliating Cleanser contains surfactants, jojoba esters, and salicylic acid which helps exfoliate dead skin cells and unclog pores. The formula combines enzymatic and plant-derived growth factors that invigorate skin’s natural restorative mechanisms and deliver targetted treatment for the eye’s unique vulnerabilities.As you age, your body’s production of collagen and elastin slows down. These two proteins are responsible for your skin’s structural support. As a result, the skin loses its natural plumpness and smoothness. Growth factors can come from several sources, including animals, human stem cells, and plants. They are either extracted or bioengineered and then grown into more concentrated media solutions used in skincare formulations. As a natural component of the epidermis, these healing factors actually reduce sensitivity, unlike similar products that promote turnover at the expense of causing skin damage. ZO’s Growth Factor Serumand Growth Factor Eye Serum pair well with other products you may already use. Vitamin C, which is a proven antioxidant that neutralizes free radicals to boost the benefits of growth factors, is a welcome addition. If you’re a retinol lover, you can still use growth factors in tandem for enhanced anti-aging results. Of course, no skincare regimen is complete without the regular use of sunscreen. The growth serum has high concentrations of different silicones and humectants that help fight signs of aging. Humectants retain moisture and help plum up the skin, while silicones blur the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. The effects of the serum are temporary and disappear once you wash it off. This gel cleanser helps to gently exfoliate skin thanks to jojoba esters. Jojoba esters are round, biodegradable beads that help to remove dead skin cells.

Look for other beneficial ingredients that complement the action of growth factors,” suggest Gmyrek. “These may include antioxidants, peptides, hyaluronic acid, vitamins, and other nourishing compounds that promote overall skin health, hydration, and protection against environmental damage.” The winning Neocutis Bio Serum Firm is one such product that fits the bill. The powerful ZO Skin Health Growth Factor Eye Serum is powered by clinically proven ZO Growth Factor technology designed to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Growth factors are proteins that are already naturally produced and found in the body. These proteins bind to receptors on cells and communicate crucial messages. In the skin, various growth factors tell cells to “produce collagen” or “create more elastin”. Unfortunately, as we age, our body produces lower quantities of growth factors. This results in a decrease in collagen production and a weakening of elastin, which causes signs of aging like fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging, and thinning skin. WHAT DO GROWTH FACTORS DO? According to ZO Skin Health Clinic, ZO Growth Factor Serum can be likened to a retinol product as it effectively aids skin rejuvenation. However, unlike retinol, growth serums are better suited to sensitive skin types as it is not as harsh or irritating to the skin.
