Get Rid of Keratosis Scales and Skin Blemishes

BIOSKINTREATMENT is a lotion designed to clear skin of keratin bumps and regenerate healthy skin. This lotion takes away mild actinic keratosis scales and keratosis pilaris by the action of enzymes and natural willow bark extract. It also deeply moisturizes the skin, relieving all discomfort. This product helps many other types of skin problems, too: razor nicks and burns, roughness, blisters, scrapes, and cuts.

BIOSKINTREATMENT is a non prescription alternative for removing defective skin cells when actinic keratosis scales are still very small. It has absolutely no side effects. It contains biological activators to eliminate both dead and damaged skin cells and to renew healthy cells.

What is Actinic Keratosis?

Actinic keratosis are lesions, also known as solar keratosis, that often appear on the face, ears, scalp, neck, lips, backs of hands and forearms. If untreated, lesions can grow large and invade surrounding tissue cells and on rare occasions, transform or spread into more serious forms of skin cancer.

Actinic keratosis is considered one of the most common pre-cancerous skin lesions. Light-skinned individuals are most likely to develop actinic keratosis. The condition is directly related to sun exposure and therefore, is sometimes called "solar keratosis". In fact, fair-skinned individuals living in sunny climates have over 50 percent chance of developing actinic keratosis.

Individuals with 40 and more years are at a higher risk and more men are affected by this common, pre-cancerous skin tumor than women. Furthermore, regardless of age, all individuals with fair skin and/or childhood freckling have a greater possibility of acquiring actinic keratosis.

Preventing Actinic Keratosis

The best way to prevent actinic keratosis is to wear sunscreen and to try to avoid prolonged sun exposure. Children and youth should also reduce exposure to sunlight during their younger years.

Actinic keratosis is pre-cancerous, therefore, immediate treatment is recommended. The rate of transformation from skin lesion to skin cancer is debatable, but with approximately one in twenty-five individuals with actinic keratosis later reporting to have developed skin cancer, it's significant. The good news is that there are many effective ways of treating actinic keratosis.

What is Keratosis Pilaris?

Keratosis pilaris is a genetic condition of the skin in which the hair follicles become plugged with hair and with dead cells from the outermost layer of skin as the skin renews itself.

Normally, dead cells would shed off easily, but when this genetic condition is present, they get stuck in the hair follicles and due to their adhesive nature, form a scaly plug. The follicles redden and inflame causing papules; tiny rough pink bumps on the surface of the skin. They are numerous in the affected area. Each one is a horny plug, sometimes rather red but rarely itchy and never sore.

When keratosis pilaris occurs on the cheeks, the affected area is not only red, but it also feels rough. The characteristic "reddish" aspect of this type of facial Keratosis Pilaris gives it the clinical name of Keratosis Pilaris Rubra Faceii. Another variant on the face, called "keratoses pilaris atrophicans faceii", causes a worm-eaten like atrophy of skin. When the outer eyebrows are affected, the condition is known as "ulerythema ophryogenes".

Keratosis Pilaris is estimated to grieve roughly half of the world's over-all population. The inheritance pattern of the condition is dominant. This means that only one copy of the Keratosis Pilaris gene is required to result in a person developing this condition. The practical implications of this are that if one parent has keratosis pilaris, the chance of the couple's child having keratosis pilaris is over 50%. If both parents have the condition, the odds are even higher.

People with a history of skin allergies are most susceptible to this condition. The papules tend to occur in association with allergic dermatitis and several types of dry skin disorders. Both of these conditions have a strong hereditary link.

Keratosis Relief & Scarring Prevention

BIOSKINTREATMENT dissolves away mild actinic keratosis and prevents the growth of new actinic keratosis scaly formations. It has been clinically proven effective also for acne, scars, burns, stretch marks, wrinkles, age spots, keratosis pilaris lesion and unsightly skin conditions.

The result is a healthier appearance of the skin with more thickness and normal skin color and texture.

BIOSKINTREATMENT dissolves excess keratin, pore plugs and scar tissues and releases amino acids for the reproduction of fibroblasts, which give rise to new connective tissues and glycosaminoglycans, the molecules that deeply moisturize, firm skin and give it strength and capacity to withstand over-stretching. It also replenishes the lipid barrier of the skin and triggers the regeneration of damaged cells while preventing and removing acne scars, actinic keratosis and psoriasis scales and all types of skin blemishes.

BIOSKINTREATMENT absorbs quickly, speeds skin regeneration and replacement of damaged cells and relieves many skin disorders including Keratosis Pilaris. It opens clogged pores, allows for normal shedding off dead skin cells, softens the skin scales around the follicle and helps to reduce scars. It also prevents scarring and acts as a natural remedy against skin infections including acne.

The lotion works best for skin lesions when applied twice daily. It softens the adherent skin scales around the follicle enabling them to be shed more easily. Some people find that the use of a Buff-Puff, either to apply the lotion and/or to abrade the skin during washing, increases the benefits of BIOSKINTREATMENT. Other people find that this abrasion simply causes extra irritation and aggravates Keratosis Pilaris.

BIOLOGICAL INGREDIENT

Helix Aspersa Müller Serum is gathered pure from live snails of this species, and it is immediately homogenized and stabilized to avoid hydrolysis of its enzymes and proteins.

The biological active ingredient is embedded in a liposome - microscopic "fat" vessels that are readily taken in by the cells carrying the ingredient within the target cells, deep within the skin.

It is a complex compound of powerful biological molecular structures: glycosaminoglycans, proteoglycans, enzymes, copper peptides, antimocrobial peptides and oligoelements (Copper, Zinc, Calcium, Iron; some of which act as coenzymes).

Willow Bark Extract - A Source of Salicylic Acid

Extracted from the bark of the Black Willow (Salix nigra), willow bark extract has been used for centuries as a mild analgesic, antiseptic and anti-inflammatory. The bark is rich in naturally complex salicylic acid. Topically, the extract (standardized to 10% salicylic acid) has been proven to enhance the cell renewal of the epidermis and reduce skin flora implicated in the formation of acne. Additionally, willow bark extract provides natural β- hydroxy acid activity without skin irritation, commonly associated with the topical application of synthetic salicylic acid.

Salicylic acid is especially helpful in treating these skin concerns because of its ability to penetrate the follicle. It encourages the shedding of dead skin cells from within the follicle, helping keep the pores clear of cellular debris. In this way, it reduces the number of pore blockages and breakouts on the skin.

As with most topical treatments for keratosis pilaris, the product we offer with willow bark extract must be applied over the entire face or affected body area. Using the product only as a spot treatment on visible breakouts is ineffective. Apply over the entire affected area so the product can prevent pore blockages and help clear microcomedones (tiny blemishes yet too small to see.)

Salicylic acid is involved in endogenous signalling, mediating in plant defense against pathogens. It plays a role in the resistance to pathogens by inducing the production of pathogenesis-related proteins. It is involved in the systemic acquired resistance (SAR) in which a pathogenic attack on one part of the plant induces resistance in other parts. The signal can also move to nearby plants by salicyclic acid being converted to the volatile ester, methyl salicylate.

What Our Customers Say

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I just received your product and immediately put it on. Believe it or not, within 2 hrs my Keratosis Pilaris is almost gone on my arms!!!! I've tried many different products over the years and have always been disappointed (they either didn't work at all or took forever to work and then stopped). I am absolutely amazed, thrilled, and elated thanks to your product! I really believe that it is worth its weight in gold! Thank you a 1000 times again. Kris Taylor

I ordered the lotion last month and started to use it on my arms. I have keratosis pilaris and have already tried lots of other products but nothing ever worked. I'm very happy to have found this lotion because my arms have never been as smooth before. My skin has cleared up and I hope it will continue to work so well ! Evelyne Vogt. Reinach, Switzerland.

Medicinal and Cosmetic Uses of Salicylic Acid

It is known for its ability to ease aches and pains and reduce fevers. The medicinal properties of salicylate, mainly for fever relief, have been known since ancient times, and it was used as an anti-inflammatory drug.

Also known as 2-hydroxybenzoic acid, one of several beta hydroxy acids, salicylic acid is a key ingredient in many skin-care products for the treatment of acne, psoriasis, calluses, corns, keratosis pilaris and warts.

It works as a keratolytic by causing the cells of the epidermis to shed more readily, preventing pores from clogging up and allowing room for new cell growth. Because of its effect on skin cells, salicylic acid is used in several shampoos used to treat dandruff.

Use of concentrated solutions of salicylic acid may cause hyperpigmentation for those with darker skin types, especially without the use of a broad spectrum sunblock. Cotton pads soaked in salicylic acid can be used to chemically exfoliate skin. Aspirin can be prepared by the etherification of the phenolic hydroxyl group of salicylic acid.

Subsalicylate in combination with bismuth forms the popular stomach relief aid known commonly as Pepto-Bismol. When combined, the two key ingredients help control diarrhea, nausea, heartburn and gas. It is also a very mild antibiotic.

Choline salicylate is used topically to relieve the pain of aphthous ulcers.

Willowbark vs. Salicylic Acid

Did you know that many synthetic ingredients are derived from natural ingredients and are modeled after their natural counterparts? Many companies use the synthetic versions of these ingredients because they are cheaper. The problem, however, is that because they're synthetic ingredients, they don't metabolize as easily into the skin. The original natural ingredients work better with your skin.

Salicylic acid is a synthetic ingredient typically used in many moisturizers and acne products. It helps eliminate acne by preventing pores from clogging. However, salicylic acid is found naturally in willowbark extract and is just as effective.

Rather than buy the synthetic alternative, willowbark extract is straight from the natural source. Yes, it costs more and is more difficult to manufacture, but it's worth it because it's natural and it works better with your skin.

Keratin Dissolution by Enzymes

Improper, excess, incorrect or aberrant deposition of keratin is dissolved by enzymatic hydrolisis. Imperfect skin cell layering is improved by the action of skin regenerating activators in THE BIOLOGICAL INGREDIENT IN BIOSKINTREATMENT.

BIOSKINTREATMENT lotion gently dissolves the excess keratin of the skin. The lotion works through hydrolysis, a process in which a molecule is split into two parts by reacting with a molecule of water.

One of the parts gets an OH- from the water molecule and the other part gets an H+ from the water. This separates the keratin into two different amino acids, and thus it is easily removed.

This is distinct from a hydration reaction, very much like an enzymatic dissolution helps the skin become more even and smooth. In organic chemistry, enzyme dissolution can be considered as the reverse or opposite of water losing. So, by this process the skin is turned into a silky, smooth tissue.
Keratin

Keratin is a fibrous structural protein of hair, nails and skin. A quarter of the amino acids in keratin is cystine. These amino acids can form strong bridging bonds with other cystine molecules, this account for keratin's great solidity.

Keratin does not soften in cold or hot water and does not easily undertake proteolysis. The sulphurous smell of burning keratin is distinctive; most of us will associate with scorched hair or nails.

There are various types of keratins, even inside a single animal cell. Some infectious fungi, such as those which cause athlete's foot and ringworm, feed on keratin, so they dissolve it.

Cells in the epidermis contain a structural matrix of keratin which makes this epidermis layer of the skin almost waterproof, and combined with collagen and elastin; give the dermal tissue its strength.

Rubbing and pressure cause keratin to flourish with the development of protective calluses — practical for athletes and on the fingertips of musicians who play stringed instruments. Keratinized skin cells are continuously shed and replaced.

In humans there are soft epithelial keratins, the cytokeratins, and harder hair keratins. As certain skin cells separate and become cornified, pre-keratin polypeptides are included into intermediate filaments.

Eventually the nucleus and cytoplasmic organelles withdraw, metabolism ceases and cells experience a programmed death as they become completely keratinized.

Keratins are the main component of structures that grow from the skin: the α-keratins in the hair, nails, etc. These hard, integument structures are formed by intercellular reinforcement of fibres formed from the dead, cornified cells created by specialized beds deep within the subcutaneous layer.

Hair grows incessantly and regenerates. The component proteins may be phylogenetically similar but differ somewhat in chemical structure and supermolecular arrangement.

Extensive disulfide bonding contributes to the insolubility of keratins, except in dissociating or reducing agents such as urea.
