About SkinMedica®

In 2013, SkinMedica® was acquired by Allergan, a global, multi-specialty health care company with leading portfolios in eye care, neurosciences, medical dermatology, medical aesthetics, obesity intervention and urologics. SkinMedica® scientifically formulated, clinically tested skin care products are sold through approved physicians’ offices across the country as well as online through SkinMedica.com.

The SkinMedica® Difference

Aging may be inevitable…but it can be beautiful

As we age, collagen production diminishes, skin thins and elasticity decreases causing facial sagging, fine lines and wrinkles. SkinMedica® products are scientifically formulated and clinically tested to rejuvenate skin and help rekindle your skin’s youthful appearance.
 

The natural way to healthy, more youthful skin

SkinMedica® chooses scientifically proven ingredients such as growth factors and other compounds to formulate advanced skin care products with antioxidants and retinoids that enhance the natural appearance of your skin by helping to prevent free radical damage.

Results for all skin types

SkinMedica® products go to work the moment you apply them. After consistently using a daily regimen that includes SkinMedica®’s clinically-tested products, you’ll begin to see noticeable results.

Frequently Asked Questions

There are SkinMedica® products that are formulated to be used on all skin types and most skin conditions including sensitive and post-procedure skin. We recommend you always ask Dr. Samuels which products and regimen will best address your skin type and concerns.

Photodamage to the skin is caused by exposure to harmful ultraviolet light. Photodamage can be acute, as in sunburn, or more commonly, chronic, due to gradual changes in the skin caused by an accumulation of sun exposure throughout one’s life. Sun exposure is by far the most influential environmental factor affecting aging of the skin.

Lines and wrinkles are caused by degenerative changes in the proteins of the skin’s infrastructure such as loss of stored antioxidants and reduction in collagen. Wrinkles are also caused by movement of the skin resulting in creases over time.

Age spots are also known as sun spots or solar lentigines. Age spots are associated with cumulative sun exposure. Sun spots mostly appear in areas consistently exposed to sunlight such as the back of the hands, the forearms, neck, chest and face. The pigment producing cells in the skin (melanocytes) are stimulated to produce more pigment when exposed to ultraviolet rays.

Using sun protection and appropriate skin care products containing speciality ingredients is essential in maintaining healthy skin.

Always ask Dr. Samuels for the appropriate products to use after a procedure since the regimen may differ depending on the type of procedure received.
