There are times when the skin has been damaged. Perhaps the damage has been caused by environmental factors like over exposure to the sun or brutal weather. Perhaps the damage has come from aggressive treatments like strong alpha or beta hydroxy acids, chemical peels, microdermabrasion or laser resurfacing. Or perhaps, the skin has been exceptionally dry for a long period of time. Visible damage is not the only problem. Tissue-damaging free radicals have been produced and some cell destruction has invariably taken place. The skin is unusually sensitive and vulnerable and must be treated with special care. Skin rejuvenation and cellular regeneration must take place slowly and - in order to restore the skin to health. e.r. treatments have been formulated to soothe, calm and normalize so that the skin renewal process can take place from within. They are specific formulations that incorporate ingredients like green tea hydrocortisone, aloe vera gel, minerals. botanical and other skin conditioning agents that help renew damaged tissue, stimulate skin cells and inhibit further damage.
