The next generation antioxidant you have been waiting for! PREVAGE® MD is the most powerful antioxidant available in a lotion form. Just as an apple turns brown from oxidation, your skin shows signs of aging with fine lines, wrinkles, roughness and discoloration as it oxidizes. PREVAGE® MD helps prevent oxidation by correcting existing damage and protecting your skin from future damage.

  • PREVAGE® MD antioxidant cream is only available through a select number of physicians.
  • Contains idebenone-the most potent antioxidant available in a topical skin care product.
  • Scientifically proven to be more effective than other topical antioxidants (kinetin, coenzyme Q10, lipoic acid, vitamin C, and vitamin E) in protecting against environmental stressors known to cause skin aging.
  • Clinically proven to reduce the signs of skin aging in only 6 weeks.

Here are some answers to questions you might have about PREVAGE® MD antioxidant cream.

What is PREVAGE® MD antioxidant cream?

PREVAGE® MD antioxidant cream with idebenone is the most potent antioxidant available in a skin care product today. Antioxidants are substances that protect the cells in the body from damage caused by external environmental stresses. Examples of these stresses are UV light, air pollution, ozone, and cigarette smoke, to name a few.

Idebenone is only available in PREVAGE® MD antioxidant cream through select physician's offices.

What can PREVAGE® MD antioxidant cream do for skin?

PREVAGE® MD antioxidant cream corrects the skin damage that is already present-and also protects the skin from future damage. The antioxidative power of PREVAGE® MD antioxidant cream has been clinically proven to reduce the signs of skin aging in only 6 weeks:

  • Appearance of fine lines and wrinkles reduced by 29%.
  • Skin roughness and dryness reduced by 26%.
  • Skin hydration increased by 37%.
  • 33% improvement in skin's overall appearance.

Does PREVAGE® MD antioxidant cream work better than other topical antioxidants?

Yes. PREVAGE® MD antioxidant cream is scientifically proven to be more effective than other topical antioxidants in protecting the skin against environmental stresses known to cause skin aging. These other antioxidants include kinetin (used in Kinerase®), coenzyme Q10 (used in Q10 Plus Wrinkle Control products from NIVEA®), lipoic acid (used in N.V. Perricone products), vitamin C, and vitamin E (used in many anti-aging products).

In addition, the formulation of PREVAGE® MD antioxidant cream allows for the sustained release of idebenone into the skin over time.

What is the difference between PREVAGE® MD antioxidant cream and AHAs (alpha hydroxy acids)?

AHAs are obtained from fruits, sugar cane, and sour milk and are found in a variety of skin care products including moisturizers, cleansers, and sunscreens. AHAs act primarily as exfoliants, helping to shed the outermost layer of the skin to make it look smoother and less wrinkled.

PREVAGE® MD antioxidant cream works differently. It contains idebenone, an antioxidant that scavenges harmful free radicals in the cells of the skin and protects it from damage from external environmental stresses such as UV light, air pollution, ozone, and cigarette smoke, to name a few. PREVAGE® MD antioxidant cream also reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, as well as skin roughness and dryness, and evens skin tone to restore youthful-looking skin.

Will PREVAGE® MD antioxidant cream cause burning or stinging?

No. In patient trials, PREVAGE® MD antioxidant cream did not cause burning or stinging.

Will PREVAGE® MD antioxidant cream cause any other skin reactions?

Whether or not they have sensitive skin, some patients experience breakouts any time they change their skin care regimen. If this happens to your patients, in order to reduce the possibility of a breakout occurring, we recommend you instruct patients to use PREVAGE® MD antioxidant cream once a day for the first two weeks and then begin using it twice a day.
