I love Skin Medica. I use their TNS recovery on my whole face and neck twice a day I also use their illuminating eyecream around my eyes twice a day,I really think at 53 it has helped my eyes a lot I have few lines under my eyes.It helps to build up the collagen. This is not just another expensive skin cream that does nothing(like strevectin) there are plenty of those for sure.Nouricel-md the component that has been used in TNS has been clinically tested and proved to build collagen and help to heal scars and wounds. There is science behind it.Yes, its expensive but I buy it off ebay for half price ,I will be using this product for the rest of my life.Their vitamin C is incredible too-not yellow like everybody's elses.Its a cream that makes you skin look great as soon as you put it on. |

I found this notice to dermatologists on Revitacel's website, Riley (sorry it's so long but I thought it was all interesting enough to be posted):

Our product, the Revitacel Replenishing Complex, is very similar to TNS Recovery Complex from SkinMedica at a fraction of the price SkinMedica charges. 69% of what makes up our product is essentially the same advanced active biotech ingredient that is in SkinMedica’s TNS. Besides the price, the main difference is that TNS comes in a gel and ours is a cream. Clinical studies to support claims that are made by us as well as SkinMedica were performed on our product in 2001. Since our product and TNS are very similar, the same study results as well as key marketing claims used by us for our product are\were also used by SkinMedica in their advertisement of TNS. We had two ad campaigns on TV. First with Lindsay Wagner in 2002 and then more recently with Morgan Brittany (Pam Ewing’s half sister from the TV show DALLAS). So as you can see, our product is well established, tested and proven.
If you would like to distribute any of our products, please contact us. Private label options are available.
In the manufacturing of human-based therapeutic skin tissue products used in a variety of medical treatments, the growing cell colonies bath continuously with a proprietary nutrient solution called Human Fibroblast Conditioned Media. As the cells grow and multiply, they, in turn, secrete the natural components of human skin, including human growth factors and collagen, into the nutrient solution. When applied to human skin, this naturally-enhanced nutrient solution essentially replicates Nature’s own method of skin rejuvenation by providing topical replenishment of those elements that help regenerate healthy new skin cells. The key ingredient (69%) or the Revitacel Replenishing Complex is Human Fibroblast Conditioned Media which contains 5 human growth factors.
RevitaCel™ Replenishing Complex stimulates our skin’s own natural healing processes. Wound healing proteins called “growth factors” (naturally occurring proteins that control the wound healing process of the skin) trigger the natural processes that result in new collagen formation, new elastic tissue, new healthy blood vessels, elimination of abnormal cells and structures in the skin and overall healing of damaged skin. The key ingredient Human Fibroblast Conditioned Media is made from by-products of bioengineered human tissue used for burn patients. Thus, the biotechnology of the skin's natural healing process has arrived with the first tissue-repairing complex containing growth factors found in normal, healthy skin. Human Fibroblast Conditioned Media contains many of the essential nutrients that the human body naturally produces and that are important for healthy skin.
Revitacel’s Replenishing Complex contains naturally secreted human growth factors and skin matrix proteins that mimic Nature's own method of skin rejuvenation and healing burned skin. Clinical results indicate that this nutrient solution greatly diminishes the damaging effects of oxidation and photo aging.
We believe that the enriched solutions mimic the way nature acts to keep skin young. Nature has designed skin cells to grow, heal and flourish by their ability to secrete a combination of growth factors and matrix proteins. As we age and our skin cells are damaged by chemicals and sunlight, fewer of these important natural chemicals are made by our cells, causing wrinkles, sagging, and pigmentation changes – which make this product also very effective for regular skin care treatments.
Bioengineering allows us to use nature’s approach to help our skin become more youthful. Fibroblasts, the cells of our dermis (lower layer of skin) can be grown under sterile conditions in bioreactors which reproduce the conditions of the body and therefore “trick” the cells into functioning as they would during natural growth. The enriched solutions have been shown to contain human collagens (soluble), hyaluronic acid, essential amino acids, natural antioxidants, and naturally occurring growth factors such as TGF Beta (induces collagen synthesis), KGF (stimulates growth of epidermal cells), VEGF (increases blood flow), and IL3/IL6 (reduces inflammation).
