Hello everybody, my name is Angie and I’m just starting using skinbio products. I have actually used cp serum in the past but did not see good results; I really was patient enough!
Anyway, I now understand that it takes a while for the skin to renew itself.

I’m 37 and I’m black (from Africa). I don’t have wrinkles or lines but I do have blemishes, hyper pigmentation and some scars. Currently, my skin is the “combination category”; oily t zone and drier cheeks. When I was in my 20s, my skin was very oily and the break outs was pretty bad. I was on a birth control pill for a few years and that decreased the break outs and the oil production. Now though, my skin feels dry but still a little oily at the same time Frowner.
Here is a list of products I have tried so far:

CP serum- no problem with it

P &R basic- my skin felt a little dry even when I add a little emu oil on top

P&R /W retinol- I like how it feels on my skin, however, I have broken out a little bit. I don’t know whether it is impurities coming out or just too much oil production. My skin does not feel oily though.

Lac Sal cream- Love how it feels on my skin; when I use it at night, my skin feels soft the next day. I don’t know if it is contributing to my skin breaking out.

Exfol cream & Serum + Lac Sal serum- Haven’t used them yet – waiting for some advice first.

I’m thinking of trying Skin Signal Solution & cream.

I would appreciate any input and comments.

These are general starting instructions for rejuvenating skin. But everyone's skin is different, so it may take some experimenting to find what works best for yourself.

The process of rejuvenating skin with our method is slow, but not irritating. Reducing the appearance of wrinkles and skin lesions is much slower. But even very strong Retin-A takes about 2 years to reduce the appearance major wrinkles at the price of chronic redness and irritation.

Also, most people have buried skin damage unde relatively good-looking skin. This will slowly emerge and your skin many look worse for a time. Look at http://www.reverseskinaging.co...ied-skin-damage.html

Look at http://www.reverseskinaging.com/pictures.html and http://reverseskinaging.com/nasolabial.html and read the comments.

For your face.....

Our serums work best on oily skin areas like the T-Zone and the creams are best for drier skin areas. The fastest actions are on general skin tone and "glow".

The best results for reducing the appearance of wrinkles, pores, and improving the look of skin tightening that that we hear from our clients are:

1. Use a very mild cleanser such our Gentle Clean. Do not over cleanse your skin. Use biological oils such as squalane or emu oil to remove make up.

2. Our Serums are best on sensitive skin or oily outbreak-prone skin. Our creams work best of dryer skin areas. Sebum Be Gone helps reduce excess facial sebum.

3.In the morning, use CP Serum in the morning followed by Emu Oil-S for Skin. Start with 2 drops of each daily for your face and increase the amount slowly. If your skin feels oily, blot off the excess oil with a tissue. Later you might change to Super CP Serum.

4. For your eyes, read http://store.reverseskinaging....s.asp?ProductCode=26 This is a difficult area but it can be rejuvenated and the skin around the eyes tightened.

5. At night, you might alternate Exfol Cream or our new LacSal Cream and Protect & Restore #3 - a high retinol cream. If you have problems with blemishes, then use Retinol-free P&R#2.

6. Many women also use Super Cop at night, but you should use the other products before you move to this very strong product.

7. The Day Cover can be used for moisturization when outside.

8. SRCPs and retinoic acid applied together often work very well and gives a stronger action than SRCPs alone.

9. You may also benefit from our newer Skin Signals products that are designed to improve the look of skin elasticity and firmness, and use copper bound to peptides from elastin and collagen. See the Skin Signals Solution.

10. Daily supplements of 1 gram Vitamin C and 1 gram MSM also help rebuild skin proteins. 1 gram of Flaxseed Oil, Borage Oil or Primrose Oil, which contains high levels of gamma linolenic acid, helps some people.

11. Stress inhibits skin rejuvenation by increasing blood cortisol. Stress also shortens your telomeres and your life. Taking 50 to 100 mgs daily of DHEA for a few months may help block the cortisol effect and stimulate skin rejuvenation.

12. Regular aerobic exercise floods more blood into the skin and speeds skin rejuvenation. Vigorous exercise also lengthens your telomeres which in turn helps your skin health.

13. Microdermabrasion cloths (cost about $10) often help remove dead skin cells.

14. Skin needle rollers also can help skin remodeling. But do not use them more than every 1 or 2 weeks. Be certain to effectively wash the rollers after use and sterilize it before further use.

Thank you Dr for your fast reply.
This is the routing i'm going to start with; please let me know if it's ok:

Morning: skin signal solution,signal cream around eyes + emu oil
Night: alternate between exfol serum, Lac Sal serum and P&R with retinol

By the way, does the skin signal help a little with hyper pigmentation?

Thank you again for your help.

Dear AG:

Since Skin Signals Solution is a stronger copper-peptide it will also help with hyperpigmentation and even out skin tone.

Even the milder version (Skin Signals Cream) is mentioned on our page on Hyper- and Hypopigmentation found at: reverseskinaging.com/hyperpigmentation.html

Best Wishes,
-Skin Biology
