New line said to complement select in-office cosmetic procedures.
October 15, 2008
By: TOM BRANNA
Allergan, Inc. (NYSE:AGN – News), the #1 global medical aesthetics company, and Clinique, the #1 prestige cosmetics brand in the United States, today announced the nationwide availability of Clinique Medical. The new skin care line is scientifically-designed and clinically-proven to complement select in-office cosmetic procedures and available only through skin care physicians’ offices. Clinique has always been on the cutting-edge of breakthrough science and skin care technology,” said Lynne Greene, global president, Clinique Laboratories. “We are proud that we can meet the modern and discerning consumer’s unprecedented needs in our innovative way. Our collaboration with Allergan puts Clinique Medical in an ideal position to provide best-in-class professional skin care to both physicians and consumers alike.”
“Clinique Medical represents the latest innovation in Allergan’s commitment as a leader in medical aesthetics to the Science of Rejuvenation– that is to providing medical specialists and consumers with aesthetic products backed by science that deliver on a specific need in the market,” said Robert Grant, Allergan’s corporate vice president and president, Allergan Medical. “Combining the strengths of both Allergan and Clinique, the products in the Clinique Medical line leverage innovative technologies formulated to specifically address the explicit needs of patients’ skin when undergoing some of the most popular in-office procedures so they can have an optimal experience prior to and post-treatment.”
Named one of Allure magazine’s 2008 “Beauty Breakthroughs,” the products in the Clinique Medical Optimizing Regimen kit work together to help improve the skin’s receptivity to the benefits of laser skin resurfacing such as Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) or fractionated laser treatments, chemical peels such as 30% Trichloroacetic Acid (TCA) peels, and microdermabrasion.1 Products in the kit also aid in the post-procedure process by helping to manage post-procedure visible excess redness and irritation, encourage even skin tone and enhance skin’s resilience to the visible signs of aging.
The Clinique Medical skin care line combines carefully selected ingredients with patent-pending components such as Probiotic Technology to create beautiful formulas that help prepare, support and maintain the skin pre- and post-treatment. The Clinique Medical Optimizing Regimen kit includes a Probiotic Cleanser, Skin Conditioning Treatment, Recovery Week Complex, Optimizing Treatment Cream and Daily SPF 38. The products included in the kit are also available for individual purchase. In addition, the CClinique Medical line also includes the Dry Spot Balm, an ultra-hydrating lip and facial spot balm designed to alleviate severe dryness and the associated discomfort related to some prescription medications.
Backed By Science
Two separate double-blind controlled studies consisting of 12 weeks of product use in two treatment cycles demonstrate the effectiveness of Clinique Medical in optimizing the outcome of non-surgical cosmetic procedures. The first study examined the use of Clinique Medical in conjunction with an IPL treatment (n=29), and the second study with a 30% TCA chemical peel (n=28). All participants in the studies were female between the ages of 35-65 and had never undergone the procedures.
At 12 weeks post-treatment in both studies, Clinique Medical was shown to optimize the benefits of the procedures, significantly improving many of the hallmark signs of aging, including the appearance of lines and wrinkles, age spots, skin radiance, skin firmness and skin tone. Clinique Medical also significantly reduced visible excess redness and irritation commonly associated with IPL treatments and 30% TCA chemical peels.
“In-office skin resurfacing treatments achieve results in similar ways – layers of skin are removed, and through the healing process, new, healthier-looking skin emerges. During this time, skin has a unique set of needs,” said dermatologist Vic Narurkar, MD, FAAD, Associate Clinical Professor, University of California Davis Medical School, and lead investigator in a study evaluating Clinique Medical used in conjunction with IPL and fractionated laser treatments. “Until now, a comprehensive skin care regimen designed specifically to complement these types of procedures hasn’t existed. With the introduction of Clinique Medical, we can now offer our patients a full system that conditions the skin to support optimal treatment results and helps to ease their recovery process.”
All products in the Clinique Medical skin care line are Allergy Tested, 100% Fragrance Free and contain no preservatives. Clinique Medical is available exclusively in skin care physicians’ offices nationwide. To learn more about Clinique Medical, visit www.cliniquemedical.com.
