Over time, the cumulative effects of photo-aging and other environmental stressors contribute to significantly diminished collagen production, which results in loose and wrinkled skin.

A two-fold approach is necessary when designing an effective anti-aging skin care regime to counter this trend. First, effective screening from the sun is a must. The damaging effect of ultraviolet light is well documented, and has been adopted by most skin conscious people. Cellex-C’s broad spectrum sun care formulations provide excellent daily protection against photo-aging and provide a comprehensive “age proofing” strategy when used in combination with other Cellex-C products.
The second essential in an assertive anti-aging program is to include skin care products that are rich in antioxidants.
An antioxidant is “a molecule that inhibits the oxidation of other molecules*.” Oxidation can produce free radicals which start a chain reaction of cell damage or even cell death.
“Lipid peroxidation refers to the oxidative degradation of lipids. It is the process in which free radicals “steal” electrons from the lipids in cell membranes, resulting in cell damage.*”
Ascorbic acid is a “reducing agent”, that is, an antioxidant that neutralizes free radicals, thus preventing their potential for cellular damage.
The Cellex-C patented complex contains very concentrated levels of ascorbic acid (Vitamin C), together with a precise formulation of other natural constituents vital to the maintenance of younger looking skin.
The Advanced-C Professional line from Cellex-C contains antioxidant protection including ingredients such as ergothioneine, resveratrol, and grapeseed extract that work in concert with L-Ascorbic Acid for superior protection against free radical damage.
A disciplined daily application (in both summer and winter) of Sun Care 30+ over Advanced-C Serum and Skin Hydration complex provides the foundation for your anti-aging program. Additional antioxidant and moisture protection is available in Seline-E cream with ingredients such as Vitamin E, aloe and bioflavonoids.
