Vitamin A Propionate’s smaller molecular structure gives it its superior ability to accelerate cell proliferation and the growth of collagen and elastin.

In the natural cycle, skin cells are formed and shed off every thirty days. Vitamin A Propionate accelerates that important renewal cycle to between 10 and 14 days. The upper layers of dead skin are shed off more quickly and the build-up of new debris is minimized. New skin is revealed. Collagen production is stimulated. The dermis is increased as cells plump. Ultimately, the cell layers on the surface of the skin are reduced from 14 layers of compacted oil and dead cell debris to eight or nine resiliently elastic layers that give skin a healthy, youthful glow.

Designed to provide the least amount of irritation with the greatest efficacy, Vitamin A Propionate has proven to be consistently more effective than any other non-prescription retinoid available in clearing and controlling acne and reversing the signs of photo-aging.
