New and proven treatment for pigmentation

A new treatment for pigmentation

CALECIM® Professional introduces Professional Pigment Solution, the first of its kind in the treatment of skin discolouration.

Freckles, age spots, brown spots or pigmentation: whatever you call it, irregular skin discolouration is a common and often distressing problem caused by factors such as sun damage, inflammatory skin disorders and hormonal fluctuations.

Australians are exposed to some of the strongest UV levels in the world – and we suffer among the highest incidences of skin cancers globally and, by association, other collateral dermal damage.

Skin cells in the top layer of skin (epidermis) produce a pigment called melanin that gives skin its unique, natural colour. When exposed to UV radiation, more melanin is produced, causing the skin to darken, often in irregular patches or spots, including freckles.

In its various forms, hyperpigmentation affects over 80 percent of women over the age of 25. If you’re a sufferer, you’ll know pigmentation is notoriously difficult to treat.

Finally, an at-home solution to pigmentation

Years of research, novel ingredients and several new technologies combine in CALECIM® Professional’s new Professional Pigment Solution, formulated to help treat the toughest skin discolouration problems. This combination of technologies offers the potential to provide a long-term solution to help improve the appearance of hyperpigmentation, while promoting skin resilience to help prevent future skin discolouration.

Hydroquinone-free and non-irritating to the skin, it works effectively as a standalone product for daily use and also in conjunction with clinical skin procedures.

How does it work?

Professional Pigment Solution is a long-term topical skincare treatment formulated specifically to address the appearance of skin hyperpigmentation.

It promotes skin resilience to help support the skin’s reaction to inflammation, the key cause of skin discolouration, thus helping to minimise the appearance of hyperpigmentation in the future.

It can be used by all skin types, tolerates long-term usage, and supports clinical discolouration procedures. It’s also simple to use – apply AM and PM to affected areas before application of moisturisers. Apply sunscreen liberally in the morning and re-apply regularly when in direct contact to sunlight or water.

An anti-ageing breakthrough in stem cell skincare

CALECIM® Professional is the world’s only skincare range that has gone beyond plant stem cells to harness cord lining stem cell technology.

CALECIM® Professional is changing the playing field for anti-ageing skincare, and now skin discolouration with the groundbreaking Professional Pigment Solution, with its patented complex of cord lining stem cells. Developed by CellResearch Corporation, a Singaporean biotech company specialising in stem cell research, it is the only skincare range in the world to harness cord lining stem cell technology derived from red deer umbilical cord.

The groundbreaking technology used by CALECIM® Professional is called Cord Lining Conditioned Media (CLCM). It is made using a mix of two types of powerful stem cells – mesenchymal and epithelial – that are ethically and harmlessly extracted from the outer lining of the umbilical cord of red deer.

The result is CALECIM® Professional’s patented mix of stem cell proteins, growth factors and cytokines. When applied, it helps promote repair, renewal and regneneration of the skin to visibly improve the appearance of lines and enhance skin fullness.

In high concentrations, CALECIM® Professional products have been shown to deliver significant, fast-acting benefits for the skin, both for in-clinic treatments and at-home skincare.

In split-face clinical studies, it was shown that in as little as two weeks of use, patients can start seeing an improvement to their skin.*

The growth factors found in CALECIM® Professional signal skin restoration in a way human skin cells can understand, and in a way plant-derived ingredients cannot. This discovery is patent protected in 42 territories worldwide.

Professor Mitchel P Goldman, double-board certified cosmetic dermatologist and known as the Grandfather of Growth Factors, is Chairman of the CALECIM® Professional Medical Advisory Board. ‘This is the first time that umbilical cord lining stem cells – or stem cells in general -– are being truly utilised in a topical skincare to promote skin health,’ he says.

The proteins from the umbilical stem cells don’t just affect the epidermis but also the dermis, giving the fibroblasts nutrients to help with elastin and hyaluronic acid, as well as offering anti-inflammatory proteins. This is what gives a lifting and plumping effect of the skin and helps encourage skin mobility and efficient epithelisation, particularly after the skin has been compromised such as after laser or microneedling treatment.

The comprehensive skincare range has five high-performance products and, in addition to post-procedure recovery, is designed to be used as an everyday skincare system to promote optimum epidermal cell turnover and enhance skin repair from environmental damage and the natural ageing process, improving the look of lines and wrinkles and enhancing skin fullness.

The patented mix of proteins, growth factors and cytokines are found in all CALECIM® Professional products. [A]A
