Improving Skin Aging, Skin Hydration and Sensitive Skin with Four Specific Skin Care Products: Results from a Single-Centre, Observational, Prospective Study

2017 
In this study, we assessed the efficacy and safety of four skin care products indicated for skin hydration (Aqua Therapy® and Perfecta® ), skin aging (Unica Resurfacing Therapy® ) and sensitive skin (Comfort Therapy® ), in four groups of 7 volunteers with different skin types. These products belong to four skin care ranges (Aqua® , Perfecta® , Unica® and Comfort® ) and are formulated with a specific combination of active compounds (Dermo28® ). Evaluation of sebum secretion, hydration and pH of the skin (all groups), wrinkle severity (Unica Resurfacing Therapy® ) and erythema (Comfort Therapy® ) was performed at baseline and after 4 weeks of treatment. A significant increase in hydration was recorded in subjects with dry skin receiving Aqua Therapy® for facial hydration and Perfecta® for body hydration, respectively (p ® group. In subjects with sensitive skin (Comfort Therapy® ), a decrease in erythema (p = 0.012), an increase in sebum secretion (p = 0.001) and hydration (p < 0.001), and a reduction in pH (p = 0.005) were detected at the end of treatment. Only one patient reported a minor adverse event. This specific combination of active ingredients was clinically effective and safe, and contributed to skin surface hydrolipidic film regeneration, improvement of wrinkle depth and reduction of redness.
