Treating Adult Onset Acne With Anti-aging Moisturizers
Paul Resnick



The development of anti-aging alpha hydroxy acid moisturizers is
promising a new approach for adult onset female acne. To date
thousands of women nationwide have successfully used the
anti-aging acne treatment from NioraŽ, Alpha ClearŽ. Their
experience with this moisturizing cleanser is compelling evidence
that softening the skin and reducing wrinkles with alpha hydroxy
acids can be an effective treatment for this persistent skin
condition.


NioraŽ recognized over a decade ago the relationship between acne
and anti-aging and has compiled thousands of testimonials, and
completed two studies on Alpha Clear. The connection between
anti-aging and acne first became apparent in the 1970's when two
Dermatologists, Dr. Eugene Van Scott, and Dr. Albert Klingman
begin investigating vitamin A as an alternative to benzoyl
peroxide for the treatment of acne. The basis of most
over-the-counter acne remedies such as Proactive, Clearasil and
others, benzoyl peroxide has limited effectiveness and can be
drying to the skin.


Dr Klingman eventually developed Retin A, a derivative of vitamin
A, and Dr. Van Scott began working with the structurally similar
Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHAs). Neither of these researchers
attracted much attention until it was noted that women using
these substances for acne were experiencing a reduction in skin
wrinkling. Retin A and AHAs quickly became most widely used
anti-aging skin care ingredients in the world. One of the first
to incorporate AHAs into anti-aging skin care, NioraŽ had already
achieved acclaim for it's anti-aging moisturizers. By 1993 NioraŽ
was receiving many testimonials from women who realized NioraŽ
skin care was clearing up their acne.


In response, NioraŽ re-examined the potential of AHAs as an acne
treatment. Niora Founder George Tindall explains, "We realized
that just as Van Scott's AHA acne treatments faded wrinkling, our
AHA anti-aging formulations were reducing acne." Niora had
discovered that moisturizing the skin enhanced the effectiveness
of AHAs to reduce acne. The missing piece of the puzzle was
Niora's incorporation AHA into their sensitive skin friendly
moisturizing formulas.


Ten years of experience with Alpha ClearŽ demonstrates that the
best acne treatment might well be the best anti-aging cleanser.
