There are many effective skincare treatments available these days, but unfortunately, they’re not always super affordable. Treatments like microneedling, Botox, and PRP can aid women in their skincare journeys, particularly those aiming to reduce visible signs of aging and regain a plumper, more youthful complexion.
Fortunately, there is a way to get the results you want without paying the hefty price tag of cosmetic treatments. Below, we’ll discuss three skincare ingredients (and their Isomers Skincare product pairings) that provide the same results you can get from a cosmetologist.
Spicules: Liquid Microneedling
If you deal with adult acne or want to say goodbye to wrinkles, chances are you’ve come across microneedling in your skincare research. This minimally invasive procedure involves thin needles placed at various points on the face to stimulate your skin’s healing process. Microneedling targets skin concerns like fine lines and wrinkles, enlarged pores, acne scars, and loose skin.
While it’s very effective, microneedling can be an expensive treatment that requires regular visits for real, lasting results, and the price can add up quickly. If you want the same results as microneedling without the expense, that’s where spicules come in.
Spicules are tiny needles derived from marine sea sponges. They’re so small that they can be mixed into a cream or serum and applied topically. Spicules in skincare are known as “liquid microneedling” due to their skin-penetrating properties that provide deep exfoliation, remove dead skin cells, and promote cell renewal. They also stimulate collagen production and enhance firmness.
Spicules are an ideal booster for any skincare routine, as they help your other ingredients work more effectively in your skin. At Isomers Skincare, we offer three products featuring spicules, including:
- Spicule 500PPM Booster Cream: Daily application
- Diamond Peptide Spicule Exfoliating Peel: Apply 1 to 2 days per week
- Diamond Peptide Spicule Body Cream: Daily application to target stretch marks
Argerline: Botox in a Bottle
Botox is a brand name for a drug containing the toxin Botulinum type A, which has a skin-rejuvenating effect. Botox injections are an effective way to reduce the appearance of dynamic wrinkles, such as laugh lines and frown lines. This treatment is popular as it’s a non-surgical, non-invasive procedure that provides almost immediate results.
Depending on where you live and the amount of injections you want, regular Botox can cost hundreds to thousands of dollars per treatment, and usually only lasts about three to four months.
Rather than spending thousands every quarter on this treatment, Argerline is a great topical alternative! Commonly known in skincare as “Botox in a bottle,” Argireline is a proprietary form of acetyl hexapeptide-8 that can reduce the muscle contractions responsible for dynamic expression lines. Regular topical application delivers Botox-like results without injections!
Our 5% Argireline Amplified Peptide Booster Serum from Isomers Skincare is formulated to smooth fine lines, improve skin texture, and provide enhanced radiance to the complexion. This serum targets your facial muscle contractions while hydrating, strengthening, and smoothing your skin.
Regular daily application of this serum will provide the same results as Botox without the need for a cosmetic procedure!
Orchid Stem Cells: Alternative to PRP Treatments
Platelet Rich Plasma (or PRP) treatments involve drawing a small amount of your blood to process and separate the platelets from other components. Once done, the PRP is applied to your skin through injection or microneedling. The growth factors in PRPs help to stimulate collagen synthesis, improve skin texture, and overall skin health, making it a popular treatment for those on their anti-aging skincare journey.
However, like the other treatments on this list, PRP is a very expensive procedure, usually requiring additional injections within a few weeks of your first appointment. Those seeking a more affordable solution or who cannot consent to procedures involving blood have an excellent alternative: orchid stem cells.
Our new StemGenesis line from Isomers Skincare includes stem cells from the Japanese Calanthe orchid. This resilient flower contains properties that enhance the skin's natural communication processes, stimulate collagen and elastin synthesis, reduce visible signs of aging, and provide a beautiful glow, providing PRP-like results with continuous application!
You can find the following products from our StemGenesis line:
