Skin Care Counsel

A growing number of women, are choosing to go with a cream for wrinkles over Botox injections, collagen fillers, face lifts and other invasive cosmetic procedures. The reason for this sudden shift in anti aging treatment preference is not surprising. The science behind the latest creams for wrinkles rivals that of the before mentioned wildly popular invasive procedures. And secondly, many women want to regain youthful looking skin using a more natural method.

The End Of Botox?

Undoubtedly, Botox is the most talked about anti aging treatment for wrinkles and rightfully so. The instantaneous effects of Botox are undeniable. That is the true selling point of the treatment…it works fast. Once Botox was cleared by the Food And Drug Administration, women and men looking for a quick fix to their aging skin concerns flocked to doctors and dermatologists in droves.

Shockingly, a miniscule number of treatment recipients knew that Botox was derived from a bacterium that causes botulism, a type of food poisoning. Botulism is extremely dangerous and can result in paralysis and in some cases, death if it goes untreated. Botox is a diluted but purified version of the botulism toxin.

Yes, Botox is fast but has its drawbacks which are noted below:

• Botox is completely ineffective against sun damage (the #1 cause of premature aging), fine lines, rough skin, or even acne scars.
• Regular injections actually thin the skin causing skin problems.
• The effects of botox injections wears off within 3 to 6 months requiring constant and costly maintenance because your wrinkles are ONLY being treated externally.
• And lastly, the skin adjacent to where a patient receives botox injections may become wrinkled.

The New Kid On The Block

One of the latest breakthroughs in anti aging skin care science is a compound called Acetyl Hexapeptide-3. Unlike the muscle paralyzing effects of Botox injections, this wrinkle eraser, Acetyl Hexapeptide-3, merely blocks the nerve signals that control facial muscle contractions. This impediment significantly reduces the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, crow’s feet, and other common aging concerns.

The Acetyl Hexapeptide-3 ingredient can only be found in higher end anti aging skin care products. Acetyl Hexapeptide-3 is not cheap to produce therefore in most creams it will be the primary active ingredient. But, there is a cream for wrinkles that not only contains the wrinkle erasing ingredient, Acetyl Hexapeptide-3, but 5 equally potent anti aging ingredients. It’s called LifeCell from South Beach Skincare. The incredible results achieved are undeniable. Check it out for yourself.

Freeze wrinkle cream, specifically the Instant Targeted Wrinkle Treatment stakes claim to being the original line and removing cream. Freeze’s boldest declaration is that 100% of respondents saw a 50-90% reduction in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles with just one application.

At first look, a perfect 100% is seems impressive but this statement could be misleading. This review will put a spotlight on both the pros and cons of adding freeze 24/7 to your anti aging skin care regimen.

Give Me The Benefits Not Features

1. Diminishes the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles within minutes.
2. A natural Botox alternative
3. Fast-absorbing topical cream that produces a cooling, toning sensation.
4. Safe product that causes no side effects.

Applying freeze 24/7 is not unlike other product brands. First, you want to cleanse and dry your face thoroughly. Then, apply a small amount to a specific problem area and massage the cream into your skin. As it absorbs, lines, wrinkles, and even stretch marks disappear. Repeat the process 1 or 2 more times if necessary.

The company website then recommends applying a second product as a follow to the freeze wrinkle cream application. This second product, IceCream Double Scoop, suggestion immediately raised a giant red flag which leads us into the cream’s drawbacks.

Not So Fast

In my experience with anti aging treatment products, when a second and separate product is immediately introduced as a follow up to the first you can bet the farm that you’ll need a third and maybe even a fourth product to treat all of your aging skin care concerns. Freeze wrinkle cream is no different. It is simply a gateway product leading to the entire line of anti aging products.

The real reason behind the second product suggestion is that freeze wrinkle cream is not a moisturizer. In not so many words, the product screams, “I will definitely, positively dry out your skin.” That is evident from the before and after photos.

Let’s use a real world example to wrap up the drawbacks. Let’s say your skin suffers from all the tell-tale signs of premature aging: fine lines, wrinkles, dark circles, and age spots. This is not uncommon for women who have spent years soaking up the sun’s rays without adequate sun protection. After taking a looking at their product line, at the very minimum you’ll need the wrinkle cream, moisturizer, and eye serum. This product trio will run you $285! Ouch.
