Olay Regenerist Q&A
Q1. How do clinical aesthetic treatments like Fractional Photothermolysis laser / laser therapy work to reverse the signs of ageing?
A. Laser therapy is based on your skin’s natural ability to heal itself. The laser beams intensely heat the deeper layers of skin tissue, creating micro-wounds and triggering your skin’s natural wound-healing process. When this happens, the skin cells start producing higher levels of structural proteins such as collagen and elastin, which are also responsible for making skin firmer, plumper and youthful-looking.
Q2. Is there another option to get the benefits of laser therapy without the laser?
A. Absolutely yes. Lasers work by triggering your skin’s natural ability to heal itself. Scientists have discovered that when skin is injured, it releases a slew of amino-peptides which work as signals that instruct your skin to repair the damage and produce more structural proteins such as collagen and elastin. Increased levels of new collagen and elastin result in firmer skin, and will also smoothen wrinkles and fine lines, making your complexion appear younger and healthier.
Olay scientists were able to zero in on a single amino-peptide called KTTKS that is potent enough to stimulate the production of structural proteins and trigger a boost in collagen levels all by itself, reducing lines and wrinkles and resulting in dramatically younger looking skin. They then incorporated a modified version of this in a skincare line to create the revolutionary Olay Regenerist technology.
By harnessing the anti-ageing power of KTTKS, Olay Regenerist is able to mimic the wound-healing process that is also triggered to achieve the firming effect of lasers without damaging the skin cells.
Q3. How does Olay Regenerist harness the KTTKS amino-peptide in its technology?
A. Olay Regenerist contains a modified version of this Amino-Peptide, known as pal-KTTKS, which is able to penetrate deeply and readily into the skin. Once applied, it signals the skin to start producing more collagen and elastin, resulting in a firmer, smoother and more youthful-looking complexion over time – just like a laser treatment does.
Olay Regenerist not only helps repair ageing skin cells from within without the need to damage the skin, it also contains potent antioxidants to protect the skin from future environmental damage.
Q4. What is so special about the antioxidants in New Olay Regenerist
A. The Amino-Peptide Complex in Olay Regenerist is enhanced with Carnosine, an Amino-Peptide involved in wound healing but also doubles up as a powerful antioxidant. Clinical studies have shown that Carnosine, in combination with the other antioxidants such as vitamin E and green tea extract, boosts the antioxidant prowess of Olay Regenerist by an astounding 30 percent.
This also means that gram for gram, Olay Regenerist now has more antioxidant power than red grapes, broccoli or avocado.
Q5. How many products are there in the Olay Regenerist range?
A. Olay Regenerist offers a complete 3-step anti-ageing skincare regimen, which consists of:
Step 1: Cleanse
The Regenerist Cream Cleanser is the first step to revitalized youthful-looking skin. It works like a mini professional detoxifying facial as it gently cleans and exfoliates with its luxurious oxygenated Derma-Bead formula that gently lifts away dead surface skin cells while removing skin-damaging impurities from the epidermis.
Step 2: Daily Treatments
The star product of the Olay Regenerist line, the Regenerating Serum is a laserless option to skin ageing. It's power-packed with Olay's exclusive Amino-Peptide Complex, which is proven to harness the skin's natural cellular repair abilities to dramatically regenerate and rejuvenate your skin. It also contains potent antioxidants and hydrators that protect skin cells and leave skin deeply nourished, velvety smooth and youthful-looking. It also offers intensive hydration, helps visibly reduce the appearance of deep lines and wrinkles, increases firmness, and minimizes appearance of pores. This formula is designed for everyday use.
Meanwhile, the Regenerist Eye Lifting Serum works like an intensive treatment for a visible eye lift. It visibly firms eye contours with its gentle yet concentrated formula that contains the exclusive Amino-Peptide Complex to intensely hydrate and lift the under-eye area, reduce fine lines and wrinkles, lift slackened skin, and brighten around the eye area. Suitable for daily use. Fragrance-free. Non-greasy texture. Dermatologically and opthalmologically tested.
Step 3: Moisturize
The Regenerist Regenerating Cream SPF 15 is your daily moisturizer to reduce lines and wrinkles, working like a professional infra-red hydrating treatment. This rich yet non-greasy cream with SPF 15 UVA/UVB delivers moisture and the exclusive Amino-Peptide Complex deep into the skin, so that your skin stays perfectly quenched and velvety-soft. Over time, skin is beautifully regenerated for a firmer, youthful glow.
For the evenings, Regenerist Night Firming Cream works like an intensive mini-lift as you sleep. It has a time-released Amino-Peptide Complex that intensely hydrates and conditions skin hour after hour, while doubling the skin surface's cell regeneration rate to reveal new, youthful skin while you sleep.
Q6. What is the one must-have product in the Olay Regenerist range?
A. Naturally, the star product; the Serum! It packs a concentrated amount of Amino-Peptide Complex to regenerate skin at the cellular level in the epidermis and reduce lines and wrinkles, giving you dramatically younger looking skin.
Q7. Who is the Olay Regenerist user?
A. Women in their 30s through to the 50s who wish to dramatically reduce and prevent the formation of the obvious signs of ageing, such as wrinkles, fine lines and slack skin, without resorting to drastic measures.
Q8. Can you use Olay Regenerist products in conjunction with other ranges, such as Olay Total Effects?
A. Yes, you may use products from other Olay skincare ranges depending on your individual skin needs. But for the optimum anti-ageing, wrinkle-reducing benefit you should follow a complete Olay Regenerist skincare programme.
Q9 Is there still a need for sunscreen while using Olay Regenerist?
A. Absolutely! Prevention is always better than cure. UV rays count for 80 percent of skin ageing. Shielding your skin from UV rays can help prevent further cellular damage (and wrinkles) from occurring. Fortunately, the Olay Regenerist range includes the Regenerating Cream which provides broad spectrum UVA/B SPF 15 protection, giving both sun protection and the revolutionary benefits of the Amino-Peptide Complex.
