Hippocrates regimen results in an effective elimination of skin scars, pigmentation spots and acne spots resulted from acne using gradual skin resurfacing and dermal stuimulation.

This skin care tailored for damaged skin and acne scar using high potency serums. This skin care system changes your skin dramatically within one month. What will be more noticeable is the glow and smoothness in your complexion rather than skin scars. Complete scar revision may never occur, yet, your skin will divert into a strikingly different complexion in terms of overall smoothness and radiance.

This regimen for removal of acne spots and acne scars takes six to twelve months to smooth away scarring, depends on their location type and depth. This kit works as effective as laser resurfacing and its result is even more satisfactory compare to that of laser. In shorter period of time you see visible results and costwise is more economic. Skin resurfacing as well as dermal remodelling are mainstays of this bioengineering by Hippocrates anti aging serums, a pioneer in acne scar treatment. Resurfacing serum works on the surface of the skin, epidermis, as well as deep within the dermis layer. It benefits from retexturizing properties of different renewal agents such as retinol, AHAs and BHA's for skin reconstruction.

Acne scar treatment kit also provides the skin with the nutrients it needs the most to make up for lost nutrients while the epidermis involves with rigorous skin renewal. The result is a new skin, where scarring is hardly recognizable because overall smoothness of the skin overwhelms the gradually-disappearing scars. Our motto is, "we don not promise miracles, yet we do promise results".

Hippocrates resurfacing treatment changes the entire appearance of your skin from tone and texture to resiliency and smoothness. The skin becomes noticeably smoother and younger, while the appearance of acne scarring diminishes. General smoothness of your skin undermines the gradually disappearing scars. Stimulation of connective tissue fibers' synthesis in dermis layer is another target of these serums to correct scarred skin. This kit helps to increase epidermal subepidermal micro circulation and stimulation of collagen remodeling, which is disrupted during scar formation.
