Why use Lightenex® Max Peel ?
 Completely inhibits the action of tyrosinase paralysing Melanocytes
 Reduce the activity of abnormal melanocytes, which cause Melasma & post
inflammatory hyper-pigmentation (PIH).
 Promotes entry of depigmenting agents, followed by:
 Intense deep exfoliation caused by the conversation of Retinol to Retinoic acid.
 Works by replacing the melanin carrying-keratinocytes with new cells from the Dermal-
Epidermal junction (inside-out) instead of conventional acid peels which cause outside-in
exfoliation.
 Extensively tested in the UK
 Radical treatment-quicker results.

Advantage of Lightenex® Max Peel over other peels:
 Suitable for all skin types, including Skin type 4-5, as there is no necrosis (which can result
in hyperpigmentation or scarring).
 Maintain at pH 2.2 using Mandelic acid, which makes it acidic without the irritation of
Glycolic acid in dar skin.
 Declared concentrations of active ingredients
 Airless pump ensuring stability & quality of actives
 No Hydroquinone or harmful chemicals
Lightenex® Max Peel works by eliminating the melanin patches on the face caused by melasma, chloasma,
sun damaged age spots, acne & post-inflammatory hyper-pigmentation (PIH).

Retinol as Exfoliant
Advanced Cosmeceuticals
The formation of all-trans retinoic acid is an oxidative process whereby
retinol is converted to retinaldehyde and then to retinoic acid
Retinol is the chosen exfoliant because it has been shown to penetrate skin more
effectively than Retinoic acid or Retinyl Palmitate to give the
best inside-out peeling possible.
This avoids the inflammation or necrosis involved with high strength AHAs.
REF-Unoccluded Retinol penetrates Human skin in vivo more effectively than unoccluded Retinoic acid or Retinyl palmitate.Journal of
Investigative Dermatology(1997)109,301-305;doi:10.1111/1523-1747.ep12335788.Dept of Dermatology ,University of Michigan Med
School,Ann Arbor,Michigan,USA.Elizabeth A Diell et al.
Azelaic acid
Advanced Cosmeceuticals
Azelaic acid only works on Hyperactive Melanocytes where DNA synthesis is
fast.
•
•
Powerful Inhibitor of enzyme Thioredoxin
reductase.
This enzyme adds electrons to Thioredoxin which
can then activate Tyrosinase & also helps make
DNA.
Ref-Arch Dermatol Res1990;282(3).168-171.A possible mechanism of action for Azelaic Acid in the human Epidermis.Schallenter KU et al,Dept of
Dermatology,University of Hamburg,Germany.
Alpha Arbutin 5%
Advanced Cosmeceuticals
Cultured Human Melanoma cells & three dimensional human skin
model treated with Alpha Arbutin showed:
•
60% reduction in Melanin
•
Melanin synthesis reduced by 24%
•
Cellular tyrosinase activity significantly reduced.

Dioic Acid
(Octadecene-dioc Acid) 5%
Advanced Cosmeceuticals
An open comparative study of NINETY SIX (96 female) Melasma
patients in an open, comparative, 12 week study between
Dioic Acid 1% & Hydroquinone 2% showed:
 no significant difference between treatments. (same results)
 more pruritus (itching) with hydroquinone.
This acid is a Di-carboxylic acid (dioic) like Azelaic but is 18 Carbon atoms long instead of 9 carbons like Azelaic.
It is made from Bio-fermentation of Oleic acid using Yeasts.

Dioic Acid
(Octadecene-dioc Acid) 5%
Advanced Cosmeceuticals
A twenty patient placebo study on patients of Indian and Pakistani
origin given Octadecene-dioic acid 2% over 8 weeks showed:
•
A significant reduction in melanin
•
(p<0.025) measured both by chromameter & mexameter.

Ascorbic Acid 10%
Advanced Cosmeceuticals
16 patient slit-face randomized study in Melasma patients comparing
Ascorbic acid 5% with Hydroquinone 4% showed
no statistical Colorometric difference after 16 weeks.
Side effects recorded:
•
Hydroquinone significantly high side effects (68%)
•
Ascorbic acid only 6%

Dermatology | Volume 43, Issue 8, pages 604-607, Aug 2004 | Liliana Elizabeth Espinal Perez MD et al.
Ferulic Acid &
Vitamin E synergy
Advanced Cosmeceuticals
An effective whitening agent
• Ferulic acid is a hydroxycinnamic acid that has significant anti-
oxidant and anti-melanogenic activity.
• Tocopheryl ferulate is a significant inhibitor of Tyrosinase
Ref-12-The depigmenting effect of tocopheryl ferulate on human melanoma cells. Br J Dermatol.1999 Jul;141(1)141(1):20-9.
Phytic Acid 5%
Advanced Cosmeceuticals
Phytic acid chelates Copper & Iron
in skin (makes them unavailable)
• Copper is essential part of the enzyme Tyrosinase which
makes Melanin.
• Gentle exfoliant
REF-Will Phytic acid replace Hydroquinone. Romulo Mene MD. Plastic Surgeon.Rio De Janiero,Brazil. Third Congress of
National Estetic Medicine.Milan,Italy 12 Oct 2001
Phytic Acid 5%
Advanced Cosmeceuticals
• Iron catalyses free Radical Formation & subsequent Oxidative damage
• Phytic acid prevents Iron-driven hydroxyl radicle generation & prevents
Lipid Peroxidation.
• Depigmenting agent, prevents Calcinosis cutis (calcium leaching) &
premature ageing.
• Very well absorbed into skin

• Must use Sun Blockex® spf 50 if they are to leave home during day time.
• (The skin will be red & tight for 48 hours & then flaking of skin will commence.
This flaking continues for another 3 to 5 days.)
• The patient sees the Clinician on day 7 when the decision for touch up is made.
• The touch up is again applied after degreasing with acetone & left on for four hours
before washing off.
• Apply Lightenex® Plus cream (maintenance) three times daily after day 4.
