Hi

I have just finished my first bottle of AlphaDerma CE by Janson Beckett and I'm really impressed!

It has dramatically decreased the lines I had around my eyes and also on my forehead and neck. I wish I had taken close-up photos to show you the before and afters. I'm amazed.

Your results don't surprise me at all. For the right person and skin type AlphaDerma CE is outstanding. So glad it worked well for you.
I still am using it after 3 years. Wink

Sarah- congrats that its working for you

If you dont mind me asking, how old are you? And as well as the fine lines, did the AlphaDerma CE help with other ageing issues?

sarahb,
Are you using any other products from the JB line?
I also have good results from the ADCE, and I also use the Skin Prep and Okusil Eye serum.
I ordered more because I don't want to run out of this stuff - it's a definite keeper.
I am in my early 50s.

Glad you're seeing results Sarahb Very Happy I've been using Skin Prep, CE, Night Cream, Day Cream and Vit C serum for approx. 2 years and have gotten great results in terms of firming, toning, pore reduction and overall reduction of lines.

I have a hard time admitting my age, but can say I'm older than most of you Wink

When I started using Prep, AlphaDerma my skins elasticity was not its best at all. I had lost 20 lbs. My body looked great but my face aged.

Almost immediately after starting the above two products the elasticity in my face improved. As the months went by I was amazed. My facial skin was nice and firm. I never had a problem with wrinkles. I really love this stuff.

rileygirl,

JB probably would disagree with me Anxious IMHO skin that is starting to lack its youthful spring (elasticity) would benefit the most. Granted you could start using it prior to any issues. Would these products prevent premature aging? I can't answer that but it does help give a more sculpted looked to face and neck. As always I say try first! The five day sample pack is nice but not enough to see results. I would suggest the one ounce size.

I'm 39, what other ageing issues do you mean? My neck which had those well known 'necklace lines' on, now has virtually no lines at all.

I have other items in the range, but haven't used anything else yet as I have loads of other things I'm trying to finish up first.

Sorry...by ageing issues, I meant crows feet, frown lines, general sagging and lose of elasticty, age spots etc.

How long did it take you to finish 1 bottle?
And do you use this as a moisturiser...or is it more like a serum?

Thank you Winnie, that helps me to decide to try or not. I think I will try the small bottle when I am done with my Obagi!

I agree. I tried 5-day pack and didn't notice much difference to my skin.

AlphaDermaCE really is wonderful stuff. I've been using the AlphaDermaCE and prep since March and neck lines have virtually melted away, forehead lines have gotten a lot shallower as well. The only thing it hasn't helped are the corners of my eyes - Matrixyl 3000 seems to work better in that area.

Well it worked on my lines as stated above, that incorporates frown lines and crows feet and fortunately (at the moment) I don't have any other ageing issues so can't comment as to whether it would work on them or not, but hopefully using it is keeping those issues at bay.

I used the 1oz bottle to start with, although now I know it's great stuff I have the full size bottle. It probably took me around a month to use the 1oz bottle, it's like a thin white moisturiser consistency rather than a serum and I used it as a moisturiser am and pm.

Brilliant!

Thanks for the informative reply...I'm hoping to buy this for my mum when she finishes with her products, as she likes her regime to be really simple and so doesnt like to use serums AND a moisturiser

For those that have showed an interest in trying AlphaDerma I just noticed EDS is giving the 5 Day Sample Pack as a forum gift. You can buy a product you know you love and get to do a test drive on JB. Wink

BTW, the 1 oz. size of AlphadermaCE and Skin Prep each lasted me almost 3 months of daily use in the am. I don't use it at night, too many other treatments going on...

I have just finished trialling it too, using the prep first. Much as I really wanted it to work, I found results marginal. There are other products i get faster and better results from. Unfortunately I think my skin is too old for it Crying or Very sad or just not suited.

Funny coming across this thread today. I had just googled "wrinkle creams", and all the independent sites rated the AlphaDerm CE as one of the top products. Very Happy
