| Dr. Bill Johnson performs Vi Peel, Featured On CBS
The Vi Peel can be used for fine lines, acne, acne scarring, to shrink pores, and to tighten skin. Ginger Allen, reporter for CBS11, reports on the brand new procedure for darker skin types. She followed patient, Mary Kay Evans, through her experience at Innovations Medspa and the Vi Peel. In the last year, Evans has lost 70 pounds, but with the more weight that she lost, the more skin problems she would see. After trying several over the counter remedies, she decided to give the new Vi Peel a try. The Vi Peel can be re-applied every two weeks, but at least a month in between is recommended. About Dr. Johnson & Innovations MedSpa Founded in 2005, Dr. Johnson's Innovations MedSpa has been at the forefront of the medspa industry by offering the newest aesthetics technology to the nation.
Specialty Skin Care Innovations
In the specialty skin care segment—products targeting acne, scars, stretch marks and cellulite—the line between cosmetics and pharmaceutical formulation is becoming increasingly blurred. Advanced ingredients and delivery systems for skin care products provide better results for niche skin issues and offer more marketing claims than previously possible. "Applications for specialty skin care are getting closer to applications that, in the past, were dominated by prescription treatments," says Jochen Klock, PhD, head market development hair care, DSM Nutritional Products Ltd. Branch Pentapharm, who also believes the segment will soon be marked by differentiation. According to Pamela de Ryss, vice president, national accounts, Murad, Inc., "Antiaging skin care products continue to be a significant presence in terms of shelf space." While she doesn’t see much of a shift of real estate to or from the segment, to compete for shelf space, new specialty formulations targeting specific age groups and skin types are offering additional claims, such as dual sun protection and antiaging benefits.
