Cosmetic Corner: Dermatologists Weigh in on OTC Antioxidants

Leading dermatologists offered their recommendations on the top OTC antioxidants. See what they’re recommending to their patients and why.


 

To improve patient care and outcomes, leading dermatologists offered their recommendations on the top OTC antioxidants. Consideration must be given to:

  • Active C
    La Roche-Posay Laboratoire Dermatologique
    “It has 5% vitamin C, which is a known potent antioxidant for skin. It is available in most pharmacies and has a reasonable price point for patients.”—Anthony M. Rossi, MD, New York, New York
  • Super Serum Advance
    iS Clinical
    “Super Serum Advance not only provides antioxidants to the skin, but it also has specifically formulated peptides to increase collagen production. This allows Super Serum Advance to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, scar tissue, stretch marks, and uneven pigmentation while providing superior antioxidant protection to the skin.”—Wm. Philip Werschler, Seattle, Washington
  • Urbane Renewal
    Biopelle, Inc
    It has an array of antioxidants but also DNA repair. Plus it goes on very nicely as a serum.”—Joel L. Cohen, Englewood, Colorado

Cutis invites readers to send us their recommendations. Over-the-counter pigment control, facial scrubs, and mineral makeup will be featured in upcoming editions of Cosmetic Corner. Please e-mail your recommendation(s) to cutis@frontlinemedcom.com.
