SKIN1 by Dr. Gram – First Line to Address Inflammation, Enemy #1 to Healthy Skin

San Diego, CA (March 2009) - Newly launched SKIN1 by Dr. Gram is the first professional line to specifically address chronic inflammation, which research has linked to causing premature aging, skin damage and acne. Compounding pharmacist Dr. Bernard Gramlich utilizes synergies between natural, organic, and pharmaceutical-grade ingredients to prevent chronic inflammation and meet the needs of daily skin maintenance/protection.  It is also the only professional line that is sulfate, paraben and fragrance free.

“Scientific research connected chronic cutaneous inflammation with premature aging and other diseases such as cancer over 50 years ago, so I was surprised to learn this is the first line to control all effects of inflammation,” said Dr. Gramlich.  “Most skin care products have one or two active ingredients in high concentrations which can be extremely harsh – there are 11 active ingredients in every SKIN1 by Dr. Gram product to gently yet effectively treat skin.”

About Inflammation:

The three irritants that disrupt the skin barrier to cause inflammation are: environmental (smoking, allergens, UV rays and pollution); hormonal (stress and acne); and physical (harsh products, medical/cosmetic procedures, and preservatives). Acute inflammation is triggered to repair the damaged skin barrier by remodeling the injured skin. The body does not know when to stop “fixing” itself and continues producing pro-inflammatory molecules to ensure the problem is corrected.  This is chronic inflammation which results in breakdown of collagen elastin, increase in oil production, and an increase in free radicals.  SKIN1 by Dr. Gram is designed to prevent acute inflammation from becoming chronic.

Nutra-VÎt Complex^TM

This signature complex is included in all SKIN1 by Dr. Gram products.  It utilizes the synergies between Niacinamide, glucosamine and two types of Vitamin E to fight inflammation and aging, moisturize, renew DNA, balance skin and slow skin discoloration.

Stem Cell Technology

Eye Rescue is the first skin care product to utilize Rutin, a powerful antioxidant that stabilizes Vitamin C, strengthens collagen elastin and chelates metals from the skin. By reproducing stem cells from Buckwheat, the most powerful source of this ingredient, Dr. Gram has been able to create a natural version that does not oxidize. Microsphere technology effectively delivers Rutin and Vitamin K, a vasal constrictor, to strengthen capillaries to dramatically reduce dark circles and puffiness from under the eye. It includes extra protection from Vitamin C and two forms of Vitamin E, which infuse the skin with unsurpassed antioxidant action and nourishment. The signature Nutra-VÎt Complex^TM works synergistically with botanical extracts to diminish fine lines and wrinkles, while aiding the skin’s natural recovery from environmental damage.

Daily Regimen: Daily Scrub, Daily Cleanser, Daily Moisturizer, Eye Rescue

Daily Scrub contains the powerful action of bamboo, rice brand beads, and walnut shell to

remove the dead surface skin cells that dull a complexion.  It reveals the freshest skin

possible and allows the pure antioxidant and anti-aging properties of Green Tea and Vitamin

E to directly impact the new skin cells.  The signature Nutra-Vît Complex^TM helps balance

hydration, decrease hyperpigmentation, and nourish the complexion.  The blend of organic,

pharmaceutical grade, and natural ingredients work synergistically together to enhance the

skin’s natural resurfacing properties and will invigorate tired dull looking skin.

Acne Regimen: Clarifying Cleanser, Clarifying Toner, Clarifying Mask

Clarifying Mask brings together the antiseptic power of sulfur and camphor with the

soothing relief of oat flour to clear and soothe acne prone skin. This nutrient-rich treatment

purifies and brightens the skin, while minimizing the appearance of pores. Nutra-VÎt

Complex^TM works synergistically with botanical extracts to balance skin hydration and

reduce hyperpigmentation, while aiding the skin’s natural recovery from free radical damage.

Clarifying Cleanser is a non-drying formula designed for all skin types, but especially

beneficial for oily or acne-prone skin.  This deep purifying cleanser uses salicylic acid to

promote healing and preventing of blemishes by removing blackhead-causing bacteria from

the pores while simultaneously exfoliating to decongest the skin. Antioxidants neutralize age

accelerating free radicals while the natural, pharmaceutical grade and organic ingredients

along with the botanicals calm and nourish the skin, leaving the complexion feeling

refreshed and looking radiant.
