What is PREVAGE® MD?

Why use an antioxidant on your skin?
You may have heard about the negative effects of free radicals inside the body and the value of adding antioxidants to your diet to counter the effects of free radicals. Free radicals accumulate in your skin, not only from the effects of environmental stressors (UV light, air pollution, ozone, and cigarette smoke), but also from the aging process itself.

The effects of stressors on your skin cannot be combatted with simple cleansing. To remove free radicals, you need a topical antioxidant like PREVAGE® MD anti-aging treatment, which protects against skin damage by chemically trapping and neutralizing each free radical it touches. Think of antioxidants as guardians of your skin cells, protecting them from free radicals and allowing the production of healthier cells.
Idebenone, the antioxidant found in PREVAGE MD, acts as guardian for your skin cells, trapping and neutralizing most free radicals.
