Lamelle Dermaheal
Lamelle Research Laboratories’ Dermaheal works by taking what youthful skin does well (heal, regulate and regenerate itself) and re-introducing those abilities to ageing skin. It’s quite literally empowering your skin to defy the effects of time.
All the moisturising cream and Eye Regeneration cream products in the Lamelle Dermaheal range (highest concentrations in Ultra Renewal Cream) contain a special growth factor called TGF-Beta3 (TGF-B3). TGF-B3 is one of the vital cell differentiation and growth mechanisms the body uses to develop foetuses in the womb. This growth factor has the remarkable ability to help skin regenerate and heal without getting inflamed or leaving any scars!
Available at Lamelle stocklist stores
