use of hydroquinone can result in
Ochronosis, a condition of blueblack
pigmentation on the skin and,
according to some sources, can act
as a carcinogenic.
While there is little clinical
evidence linking parabens and
hydroquinone to cancers, the
growing consumer awareness has
triggered a revolution in the way
skincare is fo rmulated.
Indermica is a hyroquinone- and
paraben-free skincare solution. The
range has only recently landed on
Australian shores and is distributed
by Advanced Cosmeceuticals.
The premier anti-ageing regimen
combines performance-based
compounds that are methodically
layered within each formula to
deliver real results, without the
possible irritations or health risks
potentially associated with parabens
and hydroquinone ingredients.
OXYGENATE &
HYDRATE
Oxygenation is at the heart of the
Indermica range. Suffi cient levels of
oxygen and nutrients are essential
to maintain the healthy rate and
results of cell reproduction.
If oxygen and nutrient levels are
depleted in the skin, the new skin
cells are not as healthy, resulting
in premature ageing and the
manifestation of fi ne lines, wrinkles
and a dull or sallow complexion.
The Indermica line uses
oxygenating compounds that help
disperse carbon dioxide (CO 2
) from
the skin, aiding to scavenge free
radicals and revive the complexion.
These compounds exhibit a heavy
molecular weight and density,
which is necessary to act upon the
dermal cavity and help decrease
wrinkle formation.
Indermica uses compounds
called perfl uorocarbons inside
an oil and aqueous emulsion to
trigger oxygenation deep within
the skin. These are artifi cial oxygen
carriers shown to improve tissue
oxygenation. They allow the skin to
breathe to optimum levels and helps
increase its capacity to self-regulate in
polluted environments. By cleansing
the skin of toxins and carbon dioxide,
perfl uorocarbons enrich the skin
without disrupting the pH barrier.
‘Skin normally renews itself around
every 28 days. However, if oxygen
and nutrients are diminished, the
cell reproduction process is slowed
down, and the new skin cells are
not as healthy, resulting in premature
ageing and the manifestation of fi ne
lines, wrinkles and a dull or sallow
complexion,’ states a report called
Perfl uorodecalin – a new advancement
in skin oxygenation.
‘Perfl uorocarbons allow the
skin to breathe to optimum levels
and to self-regulate better in
polluted environments. It is an ideal
detoxifi cation agent, as it cleans the
skin of carbon dioxide and enriches
the oxygen levels of the skin.’
All Indermica products are based
on Aloe Vera, which acts as a carrying
agent for ingredients to enhance
dermal absorption.
A chemist on the board of
Indermica Inc owns an Aloe Vera
farm, and there are more than
200 nutritional substances in Aloe
Barbadensis leaves, including 20
minerals, 20 amino acids, 12 vitamins
and countless active enzymes. csbm

Indermica treatment
The Indermica approach encompasses
both in-salon treatments and takehome
products for long-lasting, antiageing
results.
The Indermica Pro Infusion Facial is
often used before beginning the takehome
regimen. The patent-pending
massage infusion technique delivers
powerful topical ingredients deep into
the skin for maximum results. Results
are evident immediately following
treatment, and a brighter, healthier,
more youthful skin tone can be
achieved after just one treatment.
The professional treatment helps
kick start the skin’s natural processes
at a cellular level. This primes the skin
to receive The Indermica Take-Home
System – or the regimen of anti-ageing
skincare products.
One of the range’s hero products,
Oxyderm Wrinkle Cream is a fastacting,
anti-ageing treatment
specifi cally designed to reduce fi ne
lines and wrinkles. It is composed with
multiple oxygenating, relaxing, fi rming
and hydrating agents to help refresh
and smooth the complexion.
In its entity, the Indermica system
represents an innovative pathway to
healthy skin. According to Indermica,
your skin will look visibly younger,
more uniform and luminous in as little
as eight weeks of skincare use.
