Has anyone tried this product? It looks interesting and I'm wondering what results members have seen with it. |

I was lucky enough to get a sample of this in my last order. WOW! I used it around my mouth (parenthesis) -- what a difference. This will be my next splurge. hth |

I finished first round of 7 days and ordered another 7 to 14 day kit...impressive results. I am a 42 yr old skin care/procedure junkie. I am not easily impressed, but this product is impressing me; especially in skin texture and filling in some volume under my eyes. It is expensive, but so far worth every penny! |

Hi, loribar, I'm using 302 Drops to re-texture my chin area. It's very rough. I've been considering upgrading to 302 Hight Potency Serum. Now I'm wondering if the product you're talking about would be more effective. Could you be more specific when you say it improves skin texture? Thank you very much. |

Hey Mars...I'm not familiar with the product you are using so I can't offer any comparison, but there is a visible difference in the texture of my skin. The most notable difference is the way my skin feels..sooooo smooth. My makeup glides on. My skin is also plumper and the tone is more even as well. This is all in a very short time of using the product. I haven't been using it long enough to post much else, but this is pretty close to some instant gratification. Hope this helps! |

Thanks,loribar, I'm going to check into it. I want to know what "pullulan" is. |

Pullulan is a polysaccharide polymer consisting of maltotriose units, also known as α-1,4- ;α-1,6-glucan. Three glucose units in maltotriose are connected by an α-1,4 glycosidic bond, whereas consecutive maltotriose units are connected to each other by an α-1,6 glycosidic bond. Pullulan is produced from starch by the fungus Aureobasidium pullulans.
As an edible, mostly tasteless polymer, the chief commercial use of pullulan is in the manufacture of edible films that are used in various breath freshener or oral hygiene products such as Listerine Cool Mint PocketPaks. As a food additive, it is known by the E number E1204.

Mars, have you seen Skippie's posts about the lotion mask? Not sure what you are trying to improve as far as your skin texture on the chin, but Skippie had remarkable results with the lotion mask, especially in the chin area. You might want to check out that, too. |

Not directly related to the Intensive product, but I read in More magazine that derms are using Retin A (Renova, etc.) at night and then applying a growth factor product on top of the RA. In the magazine it mentioned the Neocutis as one to use. |

Any updates on this product, loribar? |

Sorry Rileygirl...I somehow missed the notification of your question...holidays, ugh!
I have no doubt this is an effective, powerful product..it absolutely delivers on the benefits listed under its product info.
BUT, I do have one complaint. It makes me look puffy. I have a thin, sculpted face so volume is usually a good thing for me, but this started to make my face look different to me in a weird sort of way...I actually started to miss my sculpted look.( I assume this is mostly due to the HA in the product, but who knows.)
One thing that bugged me were the usage instructions. They tell you to use it 7-14 days as an intensive treatment, but then it never recommended whether you could use it indefinitely or suggest how long to wait before using it again.
I called the company and the lady I spoke to said you could use it continuously, but she seemed thrown by the question and just didn't sound all that knowledgeable SO....
I'm still using it intermittently. I've tried using it as a spot treatment under eyes, in n/l folds, temple area...anywhere I want volume, but still don't like the puffy look when used daily even in those areas.
I only use my retin a twice a week and I'm going to try using it on top of that and see what happens. I don't want to miss out on the obvious benefits of this stuff, but I can't use it daily.
I hope this helps and is not too confusing!!! |

Thanks, Loribar. I am not sure how old you are but do you have wrinkles? I am curious if this really fills in the wrinkles. I am using the regular Neocutis at the moment, but was thinking about getting this stuff (actually the pen version which is supposed to be the same thing) to see if it would fill in wrinkles. It almost sounds like it would by you using the term puffy! |

Hey Rileygirl....I'm 42 and don't have alot of wrinkles thanks to botox and all the other stuff I've done!!!
I do have some wrinkling underneath my eyes and the neocutis bio serum certainly helped with that.
I think the pen is an excellent idea so you can get it directly on the wrinkles and avoid the surrounding tissue to avoid the dreaded puff. I wish I had taken before and after pics so you could see what I'm talking about (actually to see if anyone else other than me could see it)!!
I am an extreme critic of myself...something I'm working on, but this is one of the few products where there was an almost immediate result.
Let me know if you get the pen and if it provides results for you. I'm going to wait for your rec!! I have been on quite the beauty binge and expedition lately!!! |

Thanks, Loribar. Glad to hear that the Neocutis seemed to help under your eyes! I am almost ready to hit the buy button! I'll keep you posted when I get the pen and the results! Off topic, but you would not have happened to try the TNS Essential Serum would you? |

The trial begins. I got my pen product yesterday and will use it every evening (I started last night). The pen is very similar to the Estee Lauder product. It has a tip on it and you screw the bottom to get the product out of the tip of the pen. I was a little disappointed, as I was hoping that this Neocutis pen would be more like a paint brush tip that you could apply to individual wrinkles, but that is not the case. So, I'll post back after 2 weeks (which is supposedly when you are to see some results!). |

Can't wait to hear how it goes Rileygirl. I've been using Neocutis Eye, Journee, and Bio-Active creams which I like. I think the Journee makes my skin look smoother at least. Can't report on anything else at the moment, too early still. |

Looking forward to your results rileygirl. So the pen is basically the same as the serum isn't it? I just checked the ingredients. I was thinking about the serum but it's quite expensive if it doesn't work, so getting the pen to start with is a great idea. |

I'll keep you posted, WhiteWolf, and miss anna. Miss anna, as far as I could tell the pen was identical to the expensive serum, but it is only for spot treatments, not the entire face like the serum is. I definitely thought this was the best way to try it out as the cost of the other is Very high! |

Cannot wait to here of your results/experiences. I am reallly pleased since I started using it twice a week layered over my retin a.
This seems to be the best protocol for me.
Thanks so much for posting and sharing experiencesa111 I love to learn! |

Loribar, so you are using the serum only twice a week now? What products are you currently using, if you don't mind my asking! |
