Top Doctors across the Country Look to DNA Repair Enzymes to Protect and Repair Sun Damaged Skin
Freeport, NY (May 7, 2007) -- With May identified as Sun Cancer Awareness Month, UV damage to skin is on everyone's mind. Leading dermatologists nationwide are getting excited about a new approach to treating sun damage… starting with the skin's fragile DNA.
"For the first time, an over-the-counter product has been shown to penetrate the skin with ingredients that may repair DNA damage. It stands to reason that if DNA Repair is used consistently it will reduce the risk of wrinkles or sun cancer," said James Spencer, MD, Professor of Clinical Dermatology, Mount Sinai School of Medicine, New York.
The Remergent® brand, based on the science of DNA repair enzymes, is the brand recommended by top dermatologists across the country as a brand that can help prevent and repair sun damaged skin.
"Clinical studies suggest that DNA repair may be the key to reducing pre-cancerous cells and promoting overall healthy skin," says Ron Moy, MD, Former Co-Chief of the UCLA Division of Dermatology and Director of Dermatology at the CWI's clinic, the California Health and Longevity Institute. "I've recommended Remergent® 's DNA Repair Formula to my patients for over a year and believe it is one of the most promising products in skincare. The evidence suggests that DNA repair may be the key to promoting overall skin health."
"Remergent DNA Repair helps restore thymine dimers, which are pieces of DNA broken by UV exposure. This product is really helpful for people with a lot of sun damage," said Tina Alster MD, Clinical Professor of Dermatology, Georgetown University Medical Center, Washington, D.C.
Available only from medical professionals, the Remergent® line is the first product line to use sophisticated formulas to target DNA repair, barrier re-building, pigmentary issues, discolorations from the sun and other skin concerns. The Remergent® DNA Repair Formula is a twice-a-day serum that encourages the skin to self-correct and, when used with a sunscreen, prevents future damage. Introduced in 2006 by AGI Dermatics, the product line also features:
- Barrier Repair Formula - designed to rebuild the skin's protective barrier from the inside out, boosts hydration and helps support repair of collagen
- A.M. Moisture SPF 15 - combines the best of two worlds: DNA repair enzymes (to cure past UV damage) and broad spectrum sunscreen (to protect against future damage)
- Antioxidant Refoliator - suitable for treating dehydrated skin from sunburn and exfoliation procedures such as chemical peels and laser treatments
- Microcirculation Therapy - aimed at increasing nitric oxide for treatment of under-eye darkness and fatigue
