Topical antioxidants in the Derma Q-Gel Cream enhance the effectiveness of sunscreens in protecting the skin from the damaging effects of UVA and UVB radiation of the sun.

Derma Q-Gel contains active ingredients that work synergistically to reduce the extent of lipid peroxidation in the skin, while preserving skin thickness and elasticity and preventing the development of lines and wrinkles.

The antioxidants in Derma Q-Gel, coupled with essential fatty acids and natural vegetable source emollients, provide both protection and nutrition to the skin. Remember, your skin is the largest organ in your body - it protects all your other organs from the chemicals and pathogens in the environment. The health of your skin is a major element in the perception of beauty.

Your skin is the window to your health and also to your attractiveness. Skin that glows and is unlined, unwrinkled, and unmarred by discolouration - radiates youth, vitality and beauty. A healthy skin replaces self-consciousness with self confidence.

Your skin is a living, breathing organ that deserves optimum nutrition and proper protection from the environmental toxins all around us. Most people think of the skin as wrapping or packaging material and, hence, the lack of due respect to this vital organ. If you want to keep looking your best, learn to take care of your skin. It will reward you with a younger, healthier, glowing appearance!

In addition to sunlight, environmental pollutants such as smoke and ozone can also have a deleterious effect on the skin. Derma Q-Gel contains powerful free radical scavengers and antioxidants that block the damaging effects of such pollutants/irritants on the skin.

The antioxidants in Derma Q-Gel Cream, when applied to the skin, modulate the release of inflammatory mediators and reduce the expression and activity of metalloproteases. Both these actions help to reduce the damage to skin cells caused by free radicals.
