If you’re like 1.3 million other people in the US last year, you might have visited your aesthetician to get a chemical peel, undergo microdermabrasion, microneedling, laser resurfacing, or take another measure to achieve facial rejuvenation. And if you haven’t gone, you might have thought about it!
A significant factor that may hold a lot of people back from taking the leap or coming back for more is the recovery process and the time it takes for that recovery. Even though many facial rejuvenation procedures are minimally invasive, they require a healing period for the skin to regenerate and renew. Any active treatment can stimulate the body's immune system, creating skin inflammation (the inflammatory reaction is part of the wound healing response). Unfortunately, that means that the majority of people who undergo these types of treatments must deal with a period of time post-procedure where their skin may be extremely red and inflamed. There is an additional risk that excessive inflammation can cause a state of imbalance in the skin's microbiome and lead to further, more long-term inflammatory skin issues.
One solution to support faster skin healing is to calm inflammation itself, and balance the skin microbiome. A recent clinical study discovered that targeted phages can kill and control levels of harmful strains of C. acnes bacteria within the skin microbiome and inhibit the inflammatory mediators that cause inflammation. These data suggest that applying phages to the skin -- especially after procedures like a chemical peel, microneedling, fractional laser resurfacing, and microblading that cause inflammation -- can allow you to recover faster and more effectively.
We’re proud to say that after years of research and development, supported by DNA sequencing and our advancements in phage biotechnology, Ellis Day Skin Science’s Wild Resilience™️ Active Phage Serum contains Cutiphage™, a proprietary blend of natural, targeted phages that kills C. acnes bacteria, calms inflammation, and resets & regenerates the microbiome for healthy, resilient skin.
Our serum is clean, pH balanced, safe, targeted, and fits easily into your skincare routine for optimal skin health. Post-procedure, you can safely use Wild Resilience as part of your healing journey. As you would normally, simply apply two to three pumps morning and night after cleansing and before moisturizing.
