BENEFITS OF THE DERMEXCEL XTRA™
- DERMEXCEL XTRA™ pulsations and velvety-soft silicone touch-points will remove impurities trapped deep within pores. It is clinically proven to remove 99% of dirt, oil, and makeup residue and is 35x more hygienic than brushes with nylon bristles.
Deep Cleansing:
- The cleansing function gently yet deeply purges pores to remove 99.5% of dirt, makeup, impurities, excess oil and dead skin cells.
- Transdermal sonic pulsations dislodge dirt and makeup from the pores. The sonic pulsations deeply, yet gently, cleanse the skin without the rotating or oscillating action of existing nylon bristle devices that might irritate the skin or harm its elasticity due to their pulling and pinching effects.
- The XTRA™ utilises medical grade silicone, delivering 35x more hygienic properties than nylon bristles.
Tailored Cleansing:
- DERMEXCEL XTRA™ features 12 Adjustable Transdermal Sonic pulsation intensities to accommodate a personal preference for optimal comfort and effectiveness.
Guided firming massages help reduce and prevent fine lines & sagging, relax facial & neck muscle tension points, and improve micro-circulation and lymphatic drainage.
Increasing Collagen Production:
- Combining facial massages with a medical-grade skincare routine can strengthen muscle memory and stimulate collagen production. Massaging your facial muscles daily can boost blood circulation, making the skin look refreshed and more youthful. Simply apply moderate (not heavy) pressure in circular movements along the cheeks, chin, and forehead.
Improving Micro-Circulation:
- Ultrasonic waves create micro-vibration, activating blood circulation improving the delivery of oxygen and nutrients.
- Improving micro-circulation will also enhance lymphatic drainage, helping the body eliminate waste materials and pollution and removing excess fluid that shows up as puffy eyes.
Relax facial muscles:
- Facial Tissue Massaging will help relax facial muscles, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Enhanced product penetration, which means your skin will more effectively drink up your retinol serums, ceramide-rich creams, and other anti-aging products.

REVIEWS ON DERMEXCEL™ TREATMENT SERUMS
Yes - Even though no evidence suggests that the molecule in our Retinol serum should be avoided during pregnancy, this particular active ingredient is an ester of the prescription molecule retinoic acid; therefore, our ethical and legal obligation is to be overly cautious.
Discuss the use of topical Retinol usage during pregnancy with your gynaecologist. They will be the best source of information regarding the safety risks.
As soon as you find out you are pregnant. We only advise you to stop using Retinol serum as a precaution.
Yes, it is safe to use the DermExcel Retinol serum while breastfeeding.
THE EVIDENCE
- Because tretinoin (the prescription molecule, remember, our Retinol is an ester of the prescription molecule) is poorly absorbed after topical application. It is considered a low risk to the nursing infant.
Ref: Drugs and Lactation Database (Lactmed) - Blood concentrations measured 2-48 hours following application are essentially zero. Absorption of Retin-A (Tretinoin) via topical sources is reported to be minimal, and breastmilk would likely be minimal to none.
Ref: Dr. Thomas Hale, Medications and Mother's Milk - Vitamin A and, presumably, tretinoin (all-trans-retinoic acid) are natural constituents of human milk. There are no data on the amount of all-trans retinoic acid excreted into milk after topical use. Although other retinoids are excreted (see Vitamin A), the minimal absorption after topical application of tretinoin probably precludes the detection of clinically significant amounts in breast milk from this source. Thus, the use of tretinoin while breastfeeding does not appear to represent a significant risk to a nursing infant.
Ref: Drugs in Pregnancy and Lactation: Gerald Briggs, pharmacologist at Washington State University College of Pharmacy.
The type of Vitamin A. DERMEXCEL™ Retinol serum contains 3% GranActive Retinoid - Hydroxypinacolone Retinoate (HPR).
The normal retinol molecule needs to be converted to the active form (all-trans retinoic acid) before it can bind to the retinoid receptors to activate a biological response - all dermatological benefits.
Because of this conversion, studies indicate that 1% Retinol is about 20 times weaker than the active form of Retinoic acid. 1% Retinol, equivalent to about 0.05% Retinoic acid. The HPR retinoid molecule needs no conversion to bind to Retinoid receptors as it’s already in the active form. It binds directly to the retinoid receptor without causing irritation.
The normal retinol molecule and the newly advanced HPR retinoid molecule (included in Granactive Retinol) are two totally different molecules and therefore conversion calculation would be almost impossible. It is however save to say that 3% of the Granactive retinoid molecule yields significantly more retinoid receptor binding activity than 1% retinol (the highest percentage retinol in non-prescription products).
