Why does every skin company advertise a 40% to 50% wrinkle reduction in one month regardless of the product ingredients?:

What they are doing is reporting very brief studies on fine wrinkles. Everything succeeds in these studies. The wrinkle reduction numbers mean little. By moisturizing and plumping skin a little, the wrinkles are less evident. A slight irritation or edema or a bee sting would do the same. Retinol (usually as retinyl palmitate) works well in these types of wrinkle reduction studies but retinol has been around for 50 years in skin products without doing much to stop wrinkles. Real significant wrinkle reduction studies take about a year and cost millions of dollars. Some studies to prove wrinkle reduction with Retin-A went 2 years.

WHAT IS SKIN REMODELING?:

Skin Remodeling is the process that removes proteins and older cells from the skin thus removing scars, lesions, and wrinkles while smoothing the skin. Increasing skin remodeling is the key producing a biologically younger skin. Copper-peptides help activate your natural repair and remodeling process that rebuilds and renews skin, nails and hair. This helps reduce lines and wrinkles without irritation and produces skin, nails and hair that are more youthful.

During aging, skin proteins accumulate damage from many causes - sun damage, free radical injuries, natural aging, and so on. Recent research has established that copper-peptide complexes remove damaged proteins such as damaged collagen and elastin. The old damaged protein is removed and replaced with new collagen and elastin fibers. This removes scar tissue and restores skin elasticity and reduces wrinkles. The activation of such proteins may explain the potent scar reduction properties of these copper peptide creams.

Clinical studies have found copper-peptides - such as used in skin renewal creams - to be more effective in restoring the skin's collagen than Renova, Kinerase, Vitamin C or Retinoic acid (Retin-A). Collagen and elastin are rebuilt, giving you a firmer, more elastic skin. The skin's internal water-holding proteins are increased (true moisturization). These copper peptide formulations have been written about in major dermatologic magazines and papers. The Copper Peptide products brought to you by Belle Saison are the Most-Potent, Most-Effective, Strongest Copper-Peptide Skin Regeneration Creams and Serums Available, from the Inventor of the Science, and brought to you by Belle Saison at 4skinbeauty.com!

For use anytime you need to have a glowing complexion before a special event! This anti-inflamatory diet is high in essential fatty acids and DMAE to give the skin a wonderfully lifted and "glowing" look in a short amount of time!

The Three Day Nutritional Facelift

(excerpts from "The Wrinkle Cure") by Nicholas V. Perricone, M.D.

-The Rules-

The promise of a visible difference in your looks in just three days may seem too good to be true. But if you eat the wrinkle-free way for even a short period of time, you will experience dramatic changes not only in how you look but how you feel. The three day facelift aids in the elimination of puffiness, increases contours, promotes a firmer jaw line, etc. You must eat salmon twice a day for its DMAE and omega-3 essential fatty acids to show their full effects. This regimen will increase the appearance of radiance, glow and firmness in the face.

THE BASIC RULES:

•Always eat your protein foods (fish, meat) first.

•For optimal results, do not substitute any foods on the menu.

•Drink at least eight glasses of pure water per day. Add freshly squeezed lemon juice to taste, if desired.

THE THREE DAY MENU

BREAKFAST

One-half cup cooked, non-instant Oatmeal. Oatmeal is a great source of heart-healthy fiber and low-glycemic carbohydrates. Two-Egg Omelet and/or a piece of Grilled Salmon Avoid smoked salmon and lox because of their high salt content. Cantaloupe and Fresh Berries. Cantaloupe is very hydrating to the skin and contains important antioxidants. (Do not substitute watermelon, as it is too high in sugar.) Berries offer even higher levels of antioxidants. No Juice, Coffee or Toast. Keep to the menu—you may drink green or black tea instead. Eight to 12 ounces Natural Spring or Filtered Water

LUNCH

Four to six ounces of Grilled Salmon, Sardines in Olive Oil, or ½ cup canned salmon with freshly squeezed lemon juice. Green Salad made with Romaine Lettuce Dressing: extra virgin olive oil and freshly squeezed lemon juice. Two-inch wedge of Cantaloupe with Fresh Berries. Eight to 12 ounces Filtered or Natural Spring Water

SNACK

Apple, Slice of Low-Salt Turkey Breast, Three to four Hazelnuts or Almonds. These nuts are great sources of fatty acids and folic acid. Eight to 12 ounces Filtered or Natural Spring Water

DINNER

Four to six ounces of Fresh Grilled Salmon Green Salad As described under Lunch. One-half cup Steamed Veggies (Favor fibrous, non-sweet green vegetables like asparagus, broccoli, spinach, etc. Avoid sweet/starchy root vegetables (potatoes, carrots, beets, yams, parsnips, etc.). Cantaloupe and Berries Eight to 12 ounces Filtered or Natural Spring Water

BEFORE-BEDTIME SNACK

One-half Pear or Green Apple, Two ounces of Thin-Sliced, Low-Fat Baked Ham or Turkey Three or four Hazelnuts or Almonds
