PRO Restore recovery + firming
concentrate – the ultimate treatment
solution. It reduces downtime – Improves
skin recovery – Amplifies result postmicro-needling
treatment.
Pro Restore is an industry-first professional
serum designed to work with advanced
skin treatments. This concentrate
strengthens and repairs the skin’s barrier,
accelerates wound healing, aids in
post-procedure skin recovery and helps
to increase the appearance of firmness
and brightness skin. PRO restore is
recommended for all skin conditions
undergoing advanced services such
as Microneedling, RF Microneedling,
Fibroblast Skin Tightening, lasers and
chemical peels.
The skin’s moisture barrier defends the
body against environmental threats while
simultaneously protecting skin’s critical
water balance. It’s made up of corneocytes,
which are skin cells with keratin and natural
moisturisers held together by lipids that
contain ceramides and fatty acids. When
this barrier is compromised, either by
genetics or exposome-related factors like
UV exposure or over-exfoliation, irritants
can enter the skin and essential water
needed for hydration, can escape – leaving
skin red, uncomfortable, and vulnerable.
SKIN PREPPING FOR BEST RESULTS
When performing an advanced treatment
that leverages the skin’s wound healing
process, it’s best practice to start with a
skin that has a healthy barrier so you’re
not causing uncontrolled inflammation
and overloading the skin’s healing system.
In other words: the skin needs to be
strong to efficiently work on healing the
micro-injuries created with advanced
treatments, this can be achieved with both
a comprehensive pre-treatment and posttreatment
care and these play a crucial
role in achieving the desired outcomes and results. Active ingredients can optimise the
results of micro-injury treatments, and this is why PRO Restore was formulated.
PRO restore is one product with multiple benefits and contains a complex of active
ingredients to work with micro-injury skin treatments. These ingredients work in
three stages:
1. Strengthen: Panthenol (Pro-Vitamin B5) improves hydration and helps to decrease
skin damage while Mushroom Extract helps to soothe skin and decrease pain sensation
by actively blocking pain receptors in the skin. Hyaluronic Acid helps hydrate the skin to
maintain barrier integrity both pre, during and post-procedure.
2. Restore: Omega-3 from Algae helps to keep the inflammation under control enabling
a quicker healing process, this helps to calm the skin to address post-treatment redness
and irritation. Bacillus Ferment helps balance and maintain diversity within the skin’s
microbiome. Beta Glucan forms a protective film that prevents skin from dehydration
and helps skin to restore back to normal and enables quicker migration of the
keratinocyte to the area for faster wound closure.
3. Amplify: Oligopeptide-1 is a plant derived Epidermal Growth Factor that triggers
collagen and elastin production leading to a visibly improved skin texture and resilience.
Phospholipids from Olive Stem Cells stimulate mitochondria to increase cellular energy
that helps to improve vitality for visibly firm and smooth skin. Niacinamide helps fade the
appearance of dark spots for a more even skin tone by inhibiting the transfer of melanin
pigment into the skin cells.
PRO Restore is an industry first:
• First product designed to strengthen, restore, and amplify advanced treatments.
• First product to address the wound healing process from microinjury
skin treatments such as microneedling, fibroblast skin tightening and RF
microneedling.
• First product used in the treatment room and at-home for optimal recovery. APJ
