Cape Town: The patent pending instrument is designed by Dr. Des Fernandes, a leading South African plastic surgeon and founder of Environ®, International skin care cosmetic house.
The healthier the skin is made from topically applying the products and treatments, the more difficult it is for the active ingredients in the products to penetrate into the skin. This is usually due to the stratum corneum becoming more compact and the epidermis becoming thicker.
The principle behind the Environ® Cosmetic ROLL-CIT™ is that it helps to increase penetration of vitamins into the skin. When applied to the surface of the skin, it creates micro channels in the horny layer (surface) of the skin. This layer is the main obstruction to entry into the skin.
Once this layer has been breached, the vitamins A, C, E and beta-carotene contained in the skin care products can reach into the depths of the skin more effectively than by simply applying the products to the surface.
Regular use of the Environ® Cosmetic ROLL-CIT™ when used in conjunction with active recommended Environ® products can:
• In conjunction with the Environ® skin care products,
may contribute towards skin thickening
• Assists in softening fine lines
• Helps scarring to become less obvious
• Assists in the disappearance of pigmentation marks
Advantages of using the Environ® Cosmetic ROLL-CIT™ are:
• The process stimulates physiological responses
• It can be used by yourself at home or anywhere
• The process is not painful
• There is no damage to the skin
• It can be used on thin skin
• It can be used on all areas of the face, neck and body
Your skin care professional can show you how simple it is to use the Environ® Cosmetic ROLL-CIT™ at home. For the most effective results, the Environ® Cosmetic ROLL-CIT™ should be used directly before and in-between treatments on the DF Ionzyme machine. This will enhance the penetration of the treatments as well as the active vitamin A and vitamin C in the Environ® skin care products.
Side Effects
A slight “tired” look on the face as a result of slight skin swelling. This will subside in approximately 7-10 days.
A possible retinoid reaction, due to the increase in Vitamin A penetration.
Contra-indications
Do not use the Environ® Cosmetic ROLL-CIT™ on the following skin conditions:
Active acne, eczema, severe solar keratosis, skin cancer, raised moles or warts or if you are unsure about using the product.
