Strivectin – A New “Miracle Drug” for Wrinkles?

Strivectin-SD (usually shortened to “Strivectin”) owes its powers to the patented chemical wonder, oligo-peptide (also known as Pal-KTTKS). In numerous clinical trials, Strivectin was found to be more effective and less irritating than both Retinol and Vitamin C as an active ingredient in current on-the-market wrinkle reducers. As with so many other products, Strivectin started out as a cream to eliminate stretch marks. But when the company who makes it, Klein-Becker, handed out samples to employees and customers during its market-research phase, the company began getting astonishing feedback.

Labeled only as a “topical cream,” many of those sampling Strivectin inadvertently used it on their faces. Reports began filtering in almost immediately claiming extraordinarily positive results regarding facial lines and wrinkles. The company was astounded – and delighted. Klein-Becker’s director of scientific affairs, Dan Mowrey, tried the Strivectin cream after hearing the many reports of line and wrinkle improvement. Applying it to his face after he shaved each morning, Dr. Mowrey, who holds a PhD, confirmed the alleged results by his own wife’s comments that he had not looked so good in years.

Strivectin Studies  

Results of studies comparing Strivectin to both Retinol and Vitamin C clearly indicated the superiority of Pal-KTTKS (Strivectin’s active ingredient). Once-a-day applications of all three, plus a placebo, were done for two months. Then, twice-a-day applications were done for an additional 60 days. Follow-up image analyses showed significantly positive results in the skin on which the Pal-KTTKS solution was used.

Not only did the active ingredient in Strivectin work better, it worked almost one-and-a-half times faster than the Retinol and clearly surpassed the Vitamin C in reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Many doctors now advise the use of Strivectin in conjunction with Botox injections – the Pal-KTTKs to stave off and reduce the less-severe problems; the Botox to get rid of deeper flaws, like the furrows between brows or the lines on each side of the mouth.

Prudent skin professionals hesitate to deem any anti-wrinkle product as a “miracle drug,” but Strivectin comes close. At $135 for a six-month supply, the cost of more youthful-appearing skin seems reasonable. So go ahead and check it out. The only thing you might lose is some signs of aging you could live without, anyway!
