Q: What are Alpha Hydroxy Acids, and what do they do?
A: Alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) are "naturally occurring" acids. AHAs work to break down dead skin cells and speed up exfoliation. As a result, new, healthy skin cells are produced faster enabling you to have a radiant, youthful appearance. There are many different kinds of AHAs and they come in different strengths.
Q: What is Hyperpigmentation?
A: Hyperpigmentation refers to patchy areas of brown spots in the skin. Hyperpigmentation is a common problem for those who have had excessive sun exposure, are taking synthetic hormones or are under going hormonal changes such as pregnancy. Fortunately, new strides have been made in the development of pigment control skin products and skin peels that can effectively diminish the appearance of hyperpigmentation to give the skin a much more even tone and youthful appearance.

Q: I have very dry skin. Even with moisturizers my skin is still dry and flaky and my makeup only makes this look worse. Is there anything that can help?
A: Yes. People with dry skin have a twofold problem; getting the dead skin off and getting enough hydration into the skin. You must exfoliate or remove the dead cells first, or else no moisturizer will seem to work, because you cannot hydrate dead skin. There are peels that can be very beneficial for people with dry skin.

Q: I used to occasionally get freckles in the summer, but now I'm noticing the brown spots stay year-round and are getting larger and darker. When I look at myself in the mirror, I really notice the brown spots now. Is there anything I can do?
A: Yes. First you need to start protecting your face from the sun using sunscreen. There are skin products that you can use at home and professional superficial chemical peels that will accelerate the correction of your skin tone with no healing time. They work to even the color of your skin and decrease the brown, blotchy appearance.

Q: I want my face to look its best, but I love the look of tanned skin. Should I continue to tan?
A: Tanning will only accelerate the aging process and at some point you will probably regret your tanning past. Sun tanned skin tends to look dehydrated and frequently over the years, the skin builds up a brown color which only accentuates the signs of aging. Making a decision to protect your skin from the sun, along with a good skin care program, can help restore your skin's health. It is possible with the use bronzing powders to have the look of tanned skin without experiencing the damaging effects of tanning beds or natural sun rays.

Q: I have oily skin. I wash it all the time and it just stays oily. The problem gets even worse in the summer. What can I do?
A: People with oily skin frequently have a combination problem. In trying to control oiliness, many people can be overzealous with washing. This can actually increase oil production and dry out the surface skin. To begin with, you should not regularly wash your face more than twice a day. If excessive oil is produced between the washings, it's better to blot of the oil with tissue. You also need to adequately exfoliate and remove the dry surface layer which avoids clogged pores and possible breakouts. Many people with oily skin do not understand the importance of hydrating the skin. Oil control products, along with oil-free hydrators, can be a valuable solution for oily skin.

ABOUT DNA CryoStem Skin Therapy
Q. What is the origin of the skin stem cells used in DNA CryoStem Therapy?
A. The skin stem cells are obtained from bovine (cow) amniotic fluid. A special herd of bovines are raised under pristine and controlled conditions in France. These free-range bovines are organically fed, nurtured, and no vaccines or hormones are administered to ensure the highest standards of health and care. An innovative and proprietary collection process is utilized to extract the amniotic fluid under absolute sterile conditions and strict European governmental supervision. The extractions are carefully timed in order to achieve maximum amounts of stem cells, which have not become specific to the bovine genetic composition but contain the DNA information to convert to human genetic composition, specifically that of human skin. Science already knows that animal cultivated organs, such as pig heart valves, have made medical history and miracles while co-existing with the human body once implanted. This compatibility also applies to human skin.

Q. Are the bovines harmed during the extraction process?
A. No. This process has not and will never harm animals. The extracted fluid is soon replenished by fresh amniotic fluid rich in biological nutrients necessary for a healthy pregnancy. Dr. Noel Aguilar and his associates have always been at the forefront of animal and human rights. The complex extraction process is designed not to harm living embryonic animals or human fetuses. The choice to utilize bovine cells instead of human umbilical or human aborted fetus stem cells is quite an intentional and conscious decision to proceed in the most humane way possible.

Q. How are the skin stem cells preserved?
A. The cells are cryogenically (frozen) preserved. Keeping cells at freezing temperature permits them to hibernate and retain their energetic life-force and therapeutic value. This process allows the stem cells to stay fresh and active. Once the final product is created, the stem cells are frozen in individual ampoules for shipment, and the ampoule is kept frozen until the time of application/treatment.

Q. Is this a safe therapy?
A. Yes. Extensive clinical studies and tests have been conducted on the DNA CryoStem Skin Therapy System, and it meets the strictest consumer safety standards. The technology and system of delivery have been extensively evaluated by the United States Food & Drug Administration (FDA) which resulted in the agency’s approval and registration in the year 2000.

Q. How do the skin stem cells work?
A. Stem cells are the most powerful living thing that can reorganize, heal and create new tissue for skin regeneration. It has been proven that a young cell coming into contact with an old cell leads to the reprogramming of the old cell. This reprogramming is made possible because of a cell’s power to share genetic information via DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid). When the skin stem cell come into contact (topically) with living human skin, the reintroduction of young, strong and powerful DNA begins to reorganize and share its biologically flawless information with existing aged and/or damaged cells. By means of this sharing of information, the future generations of skin will regenerate much stronger and younger looking. The skin stem cells, with correct DNA information, are in a cellular serum rich in vitamins, minerals, essential fats, enzymes, and natural antioxidants. These substances immediately start interacting with the skin, thus repairing free radical damage and creating moisture reserves, protein synthesis- promoting collagen, and elastin, as well as performing other beneficial actions.

Q. How many treatments do I need to see results?
A. The results are virtually immediate. You will see a change in the skin after the first session. The benefits from each treatment will progressively increase over a period of 144 hours (6 days) after each application. The program is customarily comprised of six sessions over an approximate 70-90 day period. The number of treatments and time period may vary based on a person’s skin and health conditions. At the end of six sessions, you will have affected six generations of skin. The skin is re-evaluated at the end of the sixth session. Based on the complexity of a person’s skin condition, some individuals may require additional treatments and products.

Q. What do you mean by six (6) generations of skin being affected by the stem cell therapy?
A. As explained above, new skin cells journey to the surface of the skin approximately every 28 days. This is considered on generation of skin. After approximately six DNA CryoStem treatments, the stem cells will have communicated biologically flawless DNA information to the cells. This reprogramming process impacts six generations of skin and influences the 90% of the skin below the surface layer. These incredible results are virtually impossible to achieve with traditional skin care treatments and products.

Q. How often do I repeat the DNA CryoStem treatment series?
A. This is dependent upon your specific skin care needs. Usually a six session treatment series will enable you to experience incredible results. You can always schedule "booster" treatments (not the full series) monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, or annually. Some individuals may want to repeat the full series as part of a preventative program. Results from the program will vary based on healthy lifestlye choices: diet, nutritional supplementation (including antioxidants), hydration (sufficient daily water intake) exercise, stress management, adequate rest, sufficient restorative sleep, safe sun exposure practices, and protection from other environmental factors such as wind, pollution, chemicals and fumes, exhaust gases, and pesticides. Smoking (and second hand smoke), alcohol consumption, and the use of prescription drugs and/or social drugs will impact the quality and vitality of skin health.
