Age-spot reduction Rahn I Illumiscin is designed to eliminate age spots and to pro- vide a bright skin. A balanced composition of oleuropein, vitamin C and zinc PCA effectively fights against both pigments responsible for the appearance of age spots – melanin and lipofuscin. Rahn could already show that Illumiscin diminishes the size and reduces the contour contrast of age spots. Now a new in-vivo study, carried out in European winter and spring, reveals that following the applica- tion on the back of the hands the active has a lightening effect on age spots under winter sun (depigmentation) and inhibited new pig- ment formation under spring sun (repigmentation). It could also be demonstrated that Illumiscin controls age spots without lightening the surrounding skin. The lightening effect on age spots is much stronger than on surrounding skin areas, while conventional skin lighteners reduce the colour of the age spots and the adjacent skin simultaneously. www.rahn-group.com The DERMATEST® promise: We take your success personally.
