Their advertising, however, does mention two of the additives in their blend:<\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"295\"><strong>Collagen<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"294\"><strong>Peptides<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><strong>Collagen: <\/strong>A highly complex combination of amino acids, proteins, vitamins, and other minerals that the body manufactures on its own, but can also be derived from cows, sheep, and other vertebrates. Collagen is the cellular building block of the skin, but is not considered an effective skin care ingredient itself.<\/p>\n<p>The most effective skin care products are those that can stimulate the body\u2019s own collagen generation functions. This is preferable to trying to ingest or apply raw collagen topically because the body breaks down collagen from outside sources, redistributing its nutrients throughout the body as needed.<\/p>\n<p>Another problem with collagen applied topically is that its bulky molecular structure has difficulty penetrating the skin, so even the limited nutrients it has to offer are generally not absorbed. Instead they remain on the top of the skin where they do have smoothing and conditioning effect, however this is strictly cosmetic and will be washed off in the next shower.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Peptides:<\/strong> A type of amino acid compound, in this case specifically one that mimics the muscle-paralyzing effects of Botox. <strong>Complete Derma <\/strong>is somewhat ambiguous about the exact peptide that they are using, however based on their description of its effects it could be argireline, gatuline, Syn-Ake, or a number of other so-called \u201cinjectionless Botox\u201d products.<\/p>\n<p>Botox injections became popular for their ability to smooth the skin by paralyzing the facial muscles beneath it, however this approach has some drawbacks as well. The injection procedure itself was the subject of a good deal of criticism because of side effects like pain, swelling, tenderness, and, more seriously, infections, facial abscesses, and nerve death.<\/p>\n<p>These topical alternatives were developed to avoid those issues, however they come with a set of complications all their own. The injections were necessary for Botox because the dermis is a tough, absorbent membrane whose purpose is to protect the musculature and other tissues from outside influences, and it sucks up a good deal of the paralyzing peptides itself before they can even reach the musculature.<\/p>\n<p>This compromises the effectiveness of the peptides, as they need to reach the muscles to be effective and they have no function when absorbed by the skin cells. Not only that, but their paralytic venom can have a serious impact on the health of those cells that contact it. It ceases cellular activity and destroys their membranes, causing them to stop functioning and to start expanding and becoming misshapen.<\/p>\n<p>Health skin cells are packed densely in nice, even rows, and when one of them starts mutating, it impacts the entire structure of the skin. The visible results of this are that the skin starts to sag and loose luster. Its elasticity and reflectivity are compromised, making it more vulnerable to environmental toxins and UV rays.<\/p>\n<p>This is not the scariest effect of these chemicals, however. The way that most of these peptide products work is that they block the neurotransmissions from the brain that control the muscles, and effect that can have permanent effects on the nervous system.<\/p>\n<p>Some users have reported long-term loss of facial control and the inability to express themselves. Others complain of a condition called \u201cfuzzy brain\u201d or \u201cargireline brain,\u201d where they are unable to recall information, pay attention, and in general they feel that their mental functionality is depressed.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/top-10-anti-aging-creams\/\">Click here to see our experts\u2019 list of the most effective skin care products currently on the market.<\/a><\/p>\n\n<h5><strong>Complete Derma<\/strong><strong> Quality of Ingredients<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p><a title=\"Click here to compare with top 10 creams\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/top-10-anti-aging-creams\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-103736\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-110613 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Complete-Derma.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"296\" height=\"182\" \/><\/a>There are two major issues with the ingredients in <strong>Complete Derma<\/strong>. First, it is impossible to accurately evaluate the product without knowing what is in it, and <strong>Complete Derma <\/strong>hides some of their contents from the public. Second, neither of the two products that they do disclose is considered both safe and effective for skin care purposes.<\/p>\n<p>Vitamins and minerals that help encourage collagen production like vitamin C or shea butter are helpful and highly recommended ingredients, however straight collagen itself is not useful for skin care. It also raises questions about the ethical nature of the company, as many manufacturers will include collagen in their blend knowing that it is not affective ingredient but assuming that many people will not know that and purchase it anyway.<\/p>\n<p>Peptides and Botox alternatives are not recommended ingredients. Not only are they strictly cosmetic in their effects and have no core level health benefits, but they can also have the opposite effect of what most people are using them for, causing the skin to sag, wrinkle, and appear older.<\/p>\n<p>Further, peptides are concerning because they can affect mental functioning. Facial care products should never negatively impact your health, and especially not anything as sensitive, complicated, and important as your brain and nervous system.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/top-10-anti-aging-creams\/\">Follow this link for information about the skin care products that are the best at reducing dark spots, redness, and the effects of over-pigmentation<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h5><strong>The Price and Quality of <\/strong><strong>Complete Derma<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p><strong>Complete Derma <\/strong>is not sold through any independent retailers and is only available through their own website.
