Ultraceuticals cosmetics: a review of products and tips for choosing

Cosmetic products for skin care are presented in a very large assortment, but not all of them solve specific problems. Specially developed cosmeceutical preparations combining treatment and care will help directly eliminate the cause, provide a therapeutic effect and obtain a long-term effect. The popular cosmeceuticals Ultraceuticals deserve special attention.

The path to creating the Ultraceuticals brand began with the opening in 1988 in Australia by a dermatologist Jeffrey Heber and his wife of the Heber Davis Skin Clinic for non-surgical cosmetology... The procedures performed by doctors there were highly effective, but high-quality cosmetics were required to consolidate the results of rejuvenation and improve the condition of the patients' skin at home.

In 1998, Dr. Heber, together with the clinic's specialists, developed and patented a new line of medical cosmetics under the Ultraceuticals trademark. It embodied the best (confirmed by scientific clinical trials) achievements of non-surgical cosmetology.

The brand's products help to solve the problems of premature aging and age-related changes in the skin, eliminate acne and pigmentation. Special series provide optimal care and recovery after laser procedures, peelings, mesotherapy and other therapeutic effects.

Today, the Australian cosmeceutical brand Ultraceuticals has won worldwide recognition and is the undisputed leader in the professional corrective cosmetics market.
