Danné Home Prescriptives
Concept and prescribing
Paramedical therapists do not diagnose skin as a type; it is always from a functional perspective.
Therefore we prescribe products according to skin condition and function.
•
•
•
•
•
All prescriptives are of a pharmaceutical grade
We use botanical ingredients – extracted from plants. We imitate nature to achieve natural
results.
Danné also utilizes fish oils, Vitamins, minerals, trace elements, amino acids and proteins
They do not contain any waxes, fats, carbo waxes, lanolin or synthetics
All formulations and ingredients emulsify with water
It became popular near the end of the century to advertise a great deal of information about
ingredients. While we encourage our practitioners to seek out knowledge regarding ingredients and
what they do we also must emphasize that formulations are very complex and precise in the actual
manufacturing.
Products that claim active, near-miracle ingredients are not necessarily manufactured with a
transdermal base that can deliver ingredients into the epidermis properly. Also, certain percentages of
active ingredients must be in a formula for it to work with synergism in the skin, many products may
have less than what is required for results. There is an ingredient glossary in the back of this manual
which will give you a brief description of all the ingredients used in Danné formulas and some of their
uses.
We have always used the human body as our laboratory. Skin cells only accept and react to the
chemistry they recognize, indeed the very chemistry they functioned on in youth.
We imitate nature to achieve natural results, but this does not mean that all Danné products are based
on so-called natural ingredients.
In fact, one would have to travel to another planet to obtain ingredients that were not originally natural
to planet earth! Even synthetically produced ingredients had a natural source to begin with. We
cannot say that Danné formulas are organic. There are many organic ingredients that would be
unpleasant to put on the skin and in some cases, dangerous. We prefer to use the word “botanic” or
ingredients that come from plants. However many Danné ingredients are also from fish oil sources
and even by products of coal in the earth-which originally was a plant back in the history of time.
Why is it important that our clients use Danné Home Prescriptives?
•
It is vital to continue results after your client’s professional treatments
•
All Danné professional treatments guarantee progressive results; these results will not be
possible and can’t be guaranteed unless maintained with the proper Home Prescriptives.
•
The results of all professional treatments will be greatly limited without a daily home
prescriptive regime being used by the client.
•
We as paramedical aestheticians prescribe the right home prescriptives, this ensures our
clients problems keep on improving or our results are maintained
When performing a Danné treatment on a client it is similar to opening up the doors and waking up
their skin. If the client does not use the Danné home prescriptives that are synergistically formulated to
go with the treatments either the effects could be aborted and negated or some other contraindications could occur. Don’t open yourself to trouble, and don’t be left responsible, be professional
and ensure that your client understands that for us to effectively get their results they need to follow the
whole program, including the home prescriptives.
A lot of clients will tell you that they have products at home that they enjoy using and are happy with,
do not risk your reputation or results. You will be just asking for trouble if they start telling you what
they are going to do NEVER LOSE CONTROL REMEMBER THAT YOU ARE THE PROFESIONAL.
No Selling
Paramedical therapists must develop a professional approach and image.
Most therapists, practitioners and even physicians are universally not good sales-people. To be a
good sales person you must be able to face rejection many times a day- or the word "no"!
Practitioners have the souls of artists and therefore are very sensitive to peoples needs. This is one of
the reasons many of you became practitioners. You work very well in a private room one-on-one with
a client. You have no problem getting them to go along with professional treatments. But when it
comes time to get them to take their home products from the reception desk, might become vague
and hesitant because you do not want to hear that irritating word “no!”
Remember that all important business with the client is done while they are on the treatment couch, for
the very first time.
For example: When you go to the Doctor with a sore throat she will look down your throat and perhaps
tell you “You have strep throat, I am PUTTING YOU on ampicillin 500”. At this point she usually writes
you a prescription, you do not hesitate to go and have this prescription filled and take the drug as
directed because the DOCTOR SAID SO!
Danné practitioners should act like doctors when it comes to prescribing home prescriptives.
Immediately after the diagnostic we say, “I am putting you on” – and give them their prescription for
home use products. That is why we call them DANNÉ HOME PRESCRIPTIVES. This technique in
marketing seldom fails. If it does fail the first time – DO NOT GIVE THEM THE PROFESSIONAL
TREATMENT
You may feel you have lost a client, but remember they will be impressed you did not take their money
just to do a professional treatment. They will respect your integrity and commitment to the concept
and many times they will book again weeks later after thinking about everything.
PEOPLE MUST BE EDUCATED – EVEN THOSE THAT ASSUME THEY KNOW EVERYTHING.
Of the four levels of the Danné Concept maintain may be the most important for two reasons. It is vital
to the continued results your clients achieve after professional treatments and, from a marketing
standpoint; it represents a major portion of your income.
All Danné professional treatments guarantee progressive results, but these results will not be possible
unless maintained with the proper Home Prescriptives. The Danné home prescriptives are not a
cosmetic line nor are they designed to follow any “skin type. The Danné Home Prescriptives are not
designed to follow any category of skin type. We do not believe skin has a “type” and we find that the
old Fritzpatrick skin type chart, that dermatologists have been following for years to determine sun
damage potential to be outdated as well. To paraphrase Dr. Peter Pugliese, one of America’s leading
researchers of aging, if we were to try to determine a skin type, we would have to include all the ethnic
categories in the world including Asian, Black, Oriental, Caucasian, Hispanic and all the in-between
racial mixes. Then we would have to add pigmentation differences and even hair colour differences.
After that we would have to include chronological age groups such as teen age, middle age, mature
and elderly (for instance there is a lot of difference in skin between an 18 year old blonde female and a
40 year old blonde female). Then there are the male skins, which have a different corneum than
female, amongst other things. If we add all of this up, the numbers become enormous as to how
many skin types there really are!
Rather than diagnose our clients by “skin type” and offer them “kits” designed for skin types as is
commonly practiced, we diagnose our clients by skin condition. The Home Prescriptives are then
issued according to the condition or problems of the clients’ skin and may change as the client
improves. Most of the homes Prescriptives are modified versions of the professional treatments being
given at the time.
Treatments CORRECT skin conditions/problems and the products MAINTAIN and enhance our results.
DO NOT put someone with a skin problem on home prescriptives without in-salon treatments.
Together they work as a system supporting each other. By only using products alone, the condition
may worsen, causing the client to lose faith in you and the products. As a paramedical dermal
technician you need to start looking outside the square to diagnose what the condition or problem is,
and what course of action you need to take for best results.
When prescribing products you must know the ingredients and the action and what benefit they are
going to give to certain skin problem. Linking skin structure and function to the skin condition will help
you establish the correct choice of home prescriptives.
REMEMBER THIS & YOU WILL ALWAYS PRESCRIBE
PROPERLY…

concept behind them
Home Prescriptives
Some of the Professional Products will have the same name as the Home Prescriptive but will bear the
word “PLUS” after the name (example: Biogen C Creme PLUS). Professional products have a “Plus”
these are of a higher concentration and not to be used daily. This identifies the larger size and the
formulation may be slightly different or more concentrated for professional use only. Although some of
the Professional products could be used at home, it is very unlikely that a single client could use the
larger size fast enough that the product would not spoil or lose potency.
Some of the Home Prescriptive products are used for Professional use as well. This is because there
is no reason to change the formulation or size. A good example of such a product would be Seba-E.
Seba-E is basically an imitation of the sebum we manufacture naturally with our sebaceous gland. It is
what it is and there is no reason to change it for professional use and may denature if stored open for
too long.

Serums
Many of our ingredients act directly on the skin cells; we call this “Direct Delivery”. Other ingredients
act “systemically” on the skin, causing a chain reaction or “the domino effect” that influences some
other activity in the skin tissues.
A good example would be thermogenesis, heat creating herbs such as contained in DANNÉ Enzyme
Masque #3 and DANNÉ Body Sculpting Crème. Thermogenesis affects brown, adipose fat contained
in cellulite through the peripheral blood vessels of the skin without affecting the skin cells themselves
directly.
The skin it more than just a wrap covering the body. It is the body’s largest organ weighing about six
pounds. Stretched out, it covers about twenty square feet. By the age of seventy, most of us will have
shed around forty kilos of dead skin. Of all the dust around the average house, 75% of it is composed
of dead skin cells.
As you know, the stratum corneum of the epidermis is the skin’s most protective barrier. Before any
substance can enter the body it must first pass through this barrier. The skin was once thought to be
water proof and to some degree this is true. Lipids from the sebaceous glands along with the design
of the stratum corneum will stop water from saturating our bodies about 80% of the time, but there are
pathways even between the tough outer cells of the stratum corneum. Remember, all cells are
actually floating in a matrix and if you were to magnify the skin cells many millions of times you would
see that there really are large spaces between cells! In fact the ultimate magnification would depict all
the cells of our bodies as little lights spots of energy in a vast, space like void!
Once a substance (usually a lipid piggy-backing on a water molecule which is a very persistent
molecule despite its heavy weight) gets past this tough outer barrier, it has a much easier time passing
through the living area of the epidermis to the dermis. This area is generally between 1.5 to 2
millimetres thick. Here a rich field of blood and lymphatic vessels can carry substances quickly to the
underlying tissues. Our skin is not the impervious barrier we may have been led to believe in our
earlier science courses.
Whether or not a substance penetrates the skin depends on several things, but especially on the
molecular size of the particles. The smaller the particles the more likely they can be absorbed. But
keep in mind that even some of the larger particles can eventually enter the body through the sweat
and oil glands and therefore be stored or kept in place. Nearly any botanical or fish oil can be
fractionated to enter the epidermis transdermally. Water, a wetting agent, can carry most of these
particles into the voids of the skin if the particles do not repel the water by superior molecular weight.
In one square inch of skin there are six hundred and twenty five sweat glands and ninety oil glands.
There are also nineteen million cells, nineteen feet of capillaries, nineteen thousand sensory cells and
sixty five hairs.
In the DANNÉ CONCEPT, the word REBUILD means to offer the living cells a maximum environment to
keep them alive for longer, once the dead cell barrier is removed. This requires serums, sprays, oils
and cremes that contain a full compliment of vitamins, co-enzymes, amino acids, other proteins and
sometimes ingredients that actually stop damage to the cells before it begins. These ingredients are
called prohibitors.
Serums are formulas that are in a semi-liquid state. A serum is neither a lotion nor a solution. A serum
is a formula that in addition to the water and any other ingredient that controls its viscosity (thickness)
has one or more active ingredient that targets a special problem or initiates a special action in the
cells.
Beta Gel
There is no skin that cannot benefit from this powerful formulation:
• Acne, congested skins and microbial conditions
• Trauma, burns, sutures and staples (excellent for pre and post operative)
• Pre and post IPL, laser, dermabrasion and any resurfacing
• Smokers, slow healers and sluggish skin
• Sun damage, premature aging and environmentally stressed skins
• Red, reactive and inflamed skin
• Eczema, dermatitis, psoriasis and rosacea
Unique characteristics and benefits
Beta Glucan is an active chemical extracted from the cell wall of certain yeasts that have immune
stimulation abilities. Beta Glucan: This is technically called an anti-inflammatory factor, an
immunological agent. It consists chiefly of protein-carbohydrate complexes prepared from the whole
yeast cells. It enhances the specific defences of an organism through the activation of the properdin
system (The antibodies which destroy invading cells of other foreign material).
Beta Gel is the companion to Betagen Crème and was originally formulated for use by acne clients
who found that Betagen Crème was too rich for their conditions. Research has shown however that
Beta Gel is an excellent Serum on its own when applied over the Vitamin C Serum in areas of the skin
that need immune support. The main ingredient of Beta Gel is Beta Glucan yeast cell wall extracts,
which have immune stimulation abilities that we researched in the early 1980's.
Langerhan Cells
The Langerhans cells in the skin help the immune activities which are designed by nature to maintain
normal cell divisions for as long as possible. Longevity of cells and their divisions given to each
person in the human race is determined by individual, genetic blue-print. As long as we rid the
epidermis of excessive dead cells and maintain the normal frequency of new cell divisions, we can
slow down the aging of skin. However when too much trauma is inflicted on the skin, such as by over
exposure to the sun, excess glucose building up around the cells or other free radical attacks, the
Langerhans cells are triggered and activate masses of little micro-organic cells that surround and
destroy these foreign invaders. These are called Macrophage, which are also part of enzyme activity.
Macrophage acts as “the police” of the immune system, reinforcing areas that are breaking down and
promoting necessary cell repairs.
The slowing down of cell metabolism that comes with normal aging also slows down the Langerhans
cells. Beta Glucan yeast cell wall extracts help to stimulate the Langerhans cells to work at their
maximum capacity. These extracts are an anti-inflammatory factor consisting chiefly of proteincarbohydrate complexes prepared from whole yeast cells obtained from the fungus of barley corn.
They enhance the specific defences of the Langerhans cells through the activation of the properdin
system. These are the anti-bodies that destroy free radicals and other foreign invaders.
Part of the skins immune defense system, LC’s are large cells with long branching extensions or
dendrites. Langerhans make up 2-4% of epidermal cells by number; they constitute more than 25% of
the projected surface of the epidermis. LC’s ingest and process androgens, control the division of
epidermal cells and are responsible for all types of complex cellular growth. Once stimulated amongst
other responses stimulate the fibroblast cell to produce collagen and elastin.
Langerhans cells in the skin help direct the immune activity designed by nature to maintain all new
divisions as long as possible. Longevity of cells and the divisions allocated each person is decreed by
individual genetic blueprint. As long as we rid the epidermis of redundant dead cells and maintain the
frequency of living cell divisions we retard the aging of the skin.
Dr Peter T Pugliese, author of Physiology of the skin 2, says “Betaglucan is an effective immune
stimulant capable of stimulating wounds to heal faster and improves skin in aging individuals. Once
the macrophages are activated they set in motion a natural process by activating both fibroblasts and
the cells in the blood vessels. This causes new tissue to be generated to replace older and damaged
tissue. This is not a miracle substance but rather one that takes advantage of the body’s natural
immune mechanisms, the ultimate in tissue repair and regeneration’’
What this means to the therapist
If the therapist has access to formulas that protect the Langerhans cells from ultraviolet light, then they
can assure their client of a greater protection level in treatment protocol. The client will be less likely to
show visible signs of aging from sunlight, pollution, and topical trauma. There would be no finer
immune protection available following deep hydrolysing and peeling treatments. Malfunctions of the
melanosomes resulting in hyper spotty pigmentation are one of the most common side effects of deep
skin therapy. Conventional sunscreens are just not good enough.
The Costly Yeast Cell Wall extract
Our research has uncovered sources of Beta Glucan that are 33 times more powerful than products
common to the market. The cost of Beta Glucan in raw form is more than US$250 per gram! Further
testing showed at least 5 grams of Beta Glucan are required in one gallon of transdermal crème to
achieve maximum benefits in the skin. The crème base itself must contain a full compliment of amino
acids, non-animal protein, niacin and Vitamin C. This will allow complete transdermal storage in the
voids of the skin. The trendy word “liposome’s” – which are basically fatty acids obtained from plant,
herb and fruit oils-applies well here. Certain ground seed oils are being tested in our laboratory along
with beta glucan. There appears to be a more efficient delivery system to the skin when ground seed
oils are added to the formula.

Vitamin C
Essential when treating scarring, pigmentation, aging and environmental damage.
Pre -operatively vitamin C puts in place a protective train. Post operatively the benefits increase
cellular growth, repair stimulation, and ongoing mopping up of free radical formation. This gives a
faster rate of healing, and improved organization of cellular structures with fewer complications.
This highly potent serum can be used everywhere and under all Danné products anytime. In addition
to its anti-aging properties and anti-oxidant powers, Vitamin C Serum also has pigmentation inhibiting
qualities and is effective on age spots and melasma. It can be used in combination with our
Melanoplex Hyper-Pigmentation formulas. Vitamin C serum must always be applied first to clean skin
before applying any other Danné products. Danné Vitamin C combinations help produce new
collagen in the skin by stimulating the amino acids in the fibroblast cells.
Unique characteristics and benefits
A sophisticated answer to the question of how to prevent and reverse the signs of biological and
environmental aging.
Vitamin C has a direct effect on the Fibroblast cell in the skin. The fibroblast cells are like little factories
that produce new collagen. Collagen fibres are long, rope like chains that support the firmness of the
skin. As we age, these chains sag and break. If very little new collagen is produced, the skin
permanently sags and becomes loose. The amino acids Lysine, Proline and Glycine are also involved
with the production of collagen. Think of them as the “workers” of the Fibroblast Cell Collagen
Factory! Vitamin C therefore becomes the “boss” of the factory and keeps these amino acids working
so that collagen production is at a high level. Vitally important in cell proliferation and in the production
of collagen in aging, scarred or sun damaged skin
• Our direct delivery gives a direct effect on the fibroblast cell for maximum collagen
regeneration, stimulating our own collagen is much more effective and longer lasting than
anything we inject
• Vitamin C is also a free radical scavenger, it can help the primary anti-oxidant, Vitamin E, keep
the fibroblast cells from being attacked and destroyed.
• Stabilized formula ensures maximum potency and effectiveness
• Improves texture and firmness, helps to reduce visible signs of aging
• Essential for anyone being treated or prone to pigmentation. It contains Magnesium Ascorbyl
Phosphate, a proven tissue lightener and brightener and melanin inhibitor
• Contains Panthenol – this enhances cellular stimulation and aids in vital tissue repair
• To be effective it needs a good delivery system and a precursor
• Good stabilized serums containing Vitamin C are not cheap! Be aware of cheaper ones on the
market, as they may not contain all the necessary ingredients to give them a longer life than 3
days
Stable and Unstable
The strongest vitamin C is plain ascorbic acid, obtained from many sources. It is true however, that
plain ascorbic acid denatures in the body very quickly which is why you should always recommend to
clients to take orally two thousand IU in the morning with food. But in skin products, plain ascorbic
acid may remain active for only a few days unless it is stabilized.
The word stable in chemistry does not mean an ingredient is bad. It means firstly that a particular
ingredient may not stay “in solution” at certain levels or strengths. Not staying in solution means that a
chemical does not stay blended in water. In the case of Vitamin C, using over 5% of any combination
of Vitamin C in a serum or water based product can result in the vitamin C crystallizing and either
sinking to the bottom or the liquid becoming cloudy or dark in the solution. This is why we could never
legitimately claim over 5% strength of Vitamin C content in our serum. It is chemically impossible to do
so and end up with an active serum. The second meaning to an “unstable” ingredient means that it
denatures very quickly losing some of its potency each time it is exposed to air or oxygen.
Unlike serums, a creme can contain up to 15% vitamin C because of the lipids contains in cremes that
act as protective spheres. Several of the DANNÉ Transdermal Cremes have always contained a full
compliment of vitamin C which is then delivered into the skin for several hours during the day.
The Danné Vitamin C therapy programme is over thirty five years old. We feel that the early DANNÉ
researchers were the true pioneers of this type of therapy along with Linus Pauling and Doctor
Cathcart of the USA, a Nobel Prize winner and an American Science icon. However, Grays Anatomy, a
75 year old anatomical textbook clearly defines the importance of vitamin C in the production of
collagen in human tissue.
Despite the recent popularity of vitamin C products, DANNÉ practitioners have always been educated
in the subject for three decades. You may be confronted with questions regarding vitamin C. For
example: stabilized or not stabilized? There is much controversy and claims regarding this vitamin.
Here are the actual, chemical facts:
•
L-Ascorbic Acid. This is not an exclusive ingredient as sometimes claimed. ALL Acrobates
have “L” in front of them. L means “levo” which is one side of a chemical. The other side is
“dextro” or the letter D in front of a chemical name.
•
The strongest Vitamin C is plain ascorbic acid, obtained from many sources. It is true
however, that plain ascorbic acid denatures in the body very quickly which is why we always
recommend that our clients orally take two thousand IU in the morning with food and two
thousand at night with food. But in skin products, plain ascorbic acid may remain active for
only a few days unless it is stabilized.
•
The stable Vitamins C are not as strong as plain ascorbic acid, but do not denature as quickly.
They are:
o Calcium ascorbate
o Ascorbyl magnesium phosphate
o Ascorbyl palmitate
We have always used all three in combination with the stronger plain ascorbic acid for full potency in
our cremes and serums. We also include a calcium ion process in the manufacturing of Vitamin C
formulas. This creates a chemical “fence” around our Vitamin C combinations that keep them active
longer than normal.
DANNÉ Direct Delivery Vitamin C Serum that they must use it up in eight to twelve weeks after opening
the bottle. It will start to turn yellow in a few weeks. This does not mean it has lost all potency there is
still a lot of activity left. But as the weeks go by, the serum will become weaker in potency. If it turns a
dark yellow/brown, it is dead. Rather than colouring our Vitamin C serum to disguise the denaturing
process we believe in telling our clients the truth about Vitamin C.
A large portion of ‘REBUILD’ is the ability to stop damage to the living skin cells before it occurs. This
serum focuses on the powers of Vitamin C and offers an extra “push” to areas of the skin where
collagen fibres are obviously becoming inactive, such as around the eyes, mouth and neck. We regard
it as the most direct and effective Vitamin C serum available today, after nearly 40 years of research
into the nature of Vitamin C.
Proteins, which are cell building blocks and amino acids, which are cell energy food, are delivered via
the Transdermal cremes. However Co-Enzymes and Vitamins are vitally important in all cell
proliferation activity. The Vitamin complexes of ascorbic acids (Vitamin C) are among the most
important in the production of collagen in aging, scarred or sun damaged skin.
Usage – Use on a dry cleansed skin, apply several drops to areas of visible aging or areas of concern.

Nature’s moisturizer
The first step in rebuilding is to re-establish the acid mantle. When skin is young it is naturally moist.
Younger people seldom apply so-called moisturizers. As skin ages and dead cells build up, the two
glands that create the natural acid mantle start to clog and sometimes shrink. These are the
sebaceous gland that provides sebum, a naturally micellized oil and the suderiferous gland that
produces sweat or water. Together, these two secretions rise up to the epidermis and form the acid
mantle, Nature’s Moisturizer. This lipid and water barrier is what keeps skin moist and supple. You will
be asked many times by clients which DANNÉ creme is their moisturizer. You must explain to them
that cremes do not moisturize. The humectants or moisture-attracting ingredients in most popular
cremes will attract moisture to themselves from any source they can, including the skin if the
surrounding environment is very dry and arid.
To moisturize we must imitate the sebaceous and suderiferous glands on the skin every day. We have
accomplished this with two products:
1. Seba-E, which is a micellized or fractionated blend of oils that binds to water. Or Herbal Pigment
oil
2. Herb & Mineral Spray, which is water containing many active herbs and minerals necessary for
perfect skin health.
When these two formulas are applied to the skin together, they re-establish the acid mantle of the
client’s skin.
The Transdermal cremes, being water soluble, are then applied to the skin. They blend with Seba-E
and Herb & Mineral, sealing in the moisture while storing all the nutrients deep in the voids in the
epidermis. Because of the water soluble nature of DANNÉ cremes, more than one creme may be
applied to the skin without a heavy, greasy feeling. In addition we must keep the matrix, our
intercellular “moisturizer” healthy and thick with Essential Fatty Acids.
Herb and Mineral Mist
Herb and Mineral mist ensures transdermal direct delivery of the nourishing crèmes.
Suitable for everyone.
Herb & Mineral mist is formulated to utilize vitamins and minerals contained within the herbs used in
the product. It provides 50% of the natural acid mantle we are imitating in the skin, nature’s only true
moisturizer.
Unique characteristics and benefits
• Aids in Transdermal delivery
• A polarized spritz which helps with fast penetration. This could be thought of as the “vehicle” that
carries the nutrients to the cells. Because all Danné cremes have water base, fast penetration is
necessary to avoid evaporation. Without this, results cannot be guaranteed
• Increases Dermal hydration
• Herb and Mineral mist together with the Seba-E is an imitation of our own acid mantle, sweat and
sebum, again we are merely imitating what the skin needs and produces naturally (given an
optimal functioning skin)
• This lipid and water barrier is what keeps the skin moist and supple. These are our skins true
moisturizers
• Has Astringent / Anti-inflammatory / Antioxidant / Antifungal & Antibacterial properties
• Can be used as many times through out the day as desired, can be sprayed over make-up
Effects
Herb and Mineral Mist contains over 98% hand soaked herbs that can act systemically as well as have
a direct effect on the skin. By having such a high content of minerals and herbs the solution becomes
polarized (thus breaking surface tension immediately). It acts as a carrier vehicle for the crème into
the skin. The mist replaces the sudoriferous part of the acid mantle, giving the skin instant moisture.
The mist is an essential part of the home prescriptive regime.

recycled air in planes.
Amminodine Spritz
Formulated to decrease and prevent cross linked wrinkles called glycosylation in mature/middle aged
and sun damaged skins. This is a corrective product to be used nightly until the condition subsides
then maintained periodically.
Aminodine Spritz is currently the only anti-glycosylation product in the cosmetic market. It is formulated
to help prevent cross-linked wrinkles in mature or middle aged skin.
Cross Linked Wrinkling
When excess glucose or sugars in the body surround cells that make up the skin, tiny little sticky
micro-organisms start to grow, very much like algae grows in water that has no current or energy
running through it. Glucose is the primary source of energy in our bodies, but when there is too much
of it, it becomes stagnate like still water and grows micro organisms that stick the protein bonds of
cells together. The elastin fibres and the collagen fibre, cells that give our skin its firmness and
elasticity, are then glued together and cannot operate properly. At this point they cross link and
collapse, creating a furrow or deep wrinkle in the skin.
Aminoguanidine combined with other ingredients in purified water, form a synergistic spray that soaks
into the skin and assists in re-activating glucose. The free radical effect of glycosylation is stopped.
After two weeks of use, the client, especially those that are heavy smokers, notice a firming and pink
color to the skin. Aminodine Spritz will not reverse heavy wrinkles used alone. All of the Danné Skin
Revision treatments must be performed including Enzyme Masque #1, #2 and #3 and Pro Alpha Skin
Revision series.
Unique characteristics and benefits
Assists in the prevention of cross-linked wrinkles. These wrinkles happen when the collagen and
elastin fibres collapse together and become glued with glucose or sugars present in the skin. Elastin
and Collagen are both manufactured by the fibroblast cells but have independent actions.
Elastin is responsible for the elasticity or the skins ability to “snap” back into place when moved and
collagen is responsible for the integrity or firmness of the skin. When they are glued together by the
sticky crystal like micro organisms brought on by stagnate sugar in the system, they cannot function
and a deep wrinkle appears. This excess sugar process is called ‘GLYCOSYLATION’ and is a free
radical. Glucose or sugar is a prime source of energy in our bodies. But if it is not used it becomes
stagnant and forms the sticky organisms that cause glycosylation. Because clients mainly use this at
night it is formulated in a highly active spray when the hydration levels of the skin are lowered leaving
several empty cell chambers available to be filled with a treatment solution.
Usage:
Aminodine Spritz is a home prescriptive only and is advise to be sprayed nightly over the face and
neck after any other DANNÉ serums are applied or on cleansed skin alone if the client is not applying
other corrective DANNÉ serums. Nite Firming Creme is recommended after the skin is sprayed with
Aminodine Spritz and allowed to soak in for a minute.

Can sugar become wrinkles?
Dr. Montague-King (January 2001)
Research can begin with an idea totally related to another idea, yet both ideas end up on common
ground! So how does the research regarding how to deter collagen deficiency in the aorta of
laboratory rats, and how to offset some of the extreme symptoms of adult 0n-set diabetes end up in a
therapy on prohibiting cross linked wrinkles on human skin?
Fortunately like-minded scientific seekers sometimes get together and compare notes here in the USA
thus a new treatment is born!
The phenomenon I am referring to is glycosylation.
What is glycosylation?
It all starts with carbohydrates that we get from plants and animals when we eat. All carbohydrates are
eventually broken down in the body into simple sugars or glucose, which can then take part in our
energy producing metabolic processes. However, excess carbohydrates not immediately needed by
the body are stored in the liver and the muscles of the body in the form of glycogen. If the glycogen is
not used it becomes stagnant, rather like a pool of water that has no current running through it (a
swamp) and at this point glycogen becomes a glycoside which produces glycosyl. Glycosyl is a free
radical that is not recognized as a nutrient by living cells, including skin cells. In addition to this
damage by this evil free radical another process takes place. Stagnant glycol, like stagnant water
begins to grow micro-organisms. These are in the form of sticky little barnacles that glue the protein
bonds that form healthy skin cells together so they cannot proliferate naturally. Malfunctioning cell
proliferation leads to the collapse of collagen fibres’ and elastin and this means sagging skin!
Along with the sag comes a whole plethora of malfunctions due to the advance of another free radical
added to the invasive army of common free radicals. These vampires of healthy cell electrons take the
attention of the skin's defence system away from having to help maintain a healthy skin--now they have
to put all their energies into keeping the skin from breaking down completely! The result" DEEP
CROSSLINKED WRINKLES! Often seen on clients prematurely in their forties, these wrinkles resemble
congealed gravy left in the fridge for a week! They can be also viewed on the back of the neck and
hands or draped Austrian style around the neck.
The free radicals of sun damage do play a role in this as well, creating the free radical soup, lipofuchin,
but Glycosylation surrounding the skin cells like a miasmic marsh loaded with eroding little microorganisms, is the new villain on the scene.
What can we do about it?
In addition to all the other dead cell removal systems we have researched over the years, and the
hydration and nutrient protein products that clients can put into their skins as rebuilding tools plus the
addition of absorbable ascorbic acids to help support the collagen fibres, there was not much else
that was know about how to circumvent glycosylation.
Until the beginning of 1996 when we were made aware of a little ingredient called<I>
aminoguanadine (hydrasinecarboximidamide) which was originally tested as a prevention of glucosederived collagen cross-linkage of the aorta of diabetic rats. But what really grabbed my interest was
the research being done on human diabetics inasmuch as my own Mum had a terrible case of onset
adult diabetes to the point her feet almost had to be amputated!
She underwent aminoguanidine research therapy and her problem reversed dramatically as far as the
necrosis of the tissue (aminoguanidine and it's precursors are not claimed to be cures for diabetes).
I also discovered that out of the three forms of aminoguanidine available, one was excellent in helping
to stop glycosyltation in aging skin!
The wet look!
Over the years we have observed that formulating certain ingredients into a spray or "spritz" application
maximized their efficiency 75%. A fine, water based mist sprayed over the skin mocks the action of the
skins own glands, the sudoriferous or sweat glands. This forms a "mantle" which can in turn, be
sealed in with fractionated, natural oil, such as a tocopherol (vitamin E) based oil. A water soluble
creme would be the final step thus allowing all the active ingredients in the mist a longer time in the
skin which decreases the possibility of early evaporation.
One such spray containing aminoguanidine started up in the USA and is now enjoying popularity in
Northern Europe where it is known as "The Gold Water"!
This has proven to be very effective in jot only stopping or slowing down the cross linked wrinkling
process, but brings a fresh, pink bloom to the pallid, grey skins of heavy smokers!
We are studying this ingredient very closely due to the fact that the younger generation of Americans
are smoking like Bette Davis and need help even in their teens!
The Norwegians are reporting that after two weeks usage of aminoguanidine spray, applied under
vitamin C cremes or OPC cremes (antioxidant cremes) results in a firming and toning of the skin
process that accelerates each day used.
Fractionated
Oils
Seba E
Good for any skin that is lipid dry.
Excellent for skins that are prone to eczema and dermatitis.
Seba-E was the very first Danné formula of over thirty years ago. Due to the vast amounts of little
openings in our skin, anything heavier than our own sebaceous oil and sudoriferous secretion (sweat)
would be too heavy and would clog and plug our pores. Seba-E is our version of sebum in a bottle.
We had to match the chemistry of these two products as close as possible to the secretions of our
skin with the intent to hold water and necessary nutrients for cell life within the skin for extended
periods of time. Seba -E is a blend of botanical oils and tocopherols fractionated to blend with Herb &
Mineral Spray, holding the nutrient rich water from these herbal formulas in the skin for hours, reviving
the natural acid mantle nature gave us when we were born.

Seba-E is our version of sebum in a bottle
Seba-E is a blend of botanical oils and tocopherols formulated to blend with Herb and Mineral
Mist. This is to hold the nutrient rich water from the herbal formulas in the skin for hours, reviving
the acid mantle nature gave us when we were born
The chemistry of these two products is as close as possible to the natural secretions of our skin
that hold water and necessary nutrients for cell life within the skin for extended periods of time
Contains parsley oil, which is soothing and anti-itching.
The most important point when prescribing Seba-E to clients is to look at the oil flow – If the client
has a healthy oil flow adding Seba-E would be unnecessary, and possibly detrimental. Think of it
like filling your car up with petrol, when it is already full. Where as, if you have a skin that is lipid
dry, and produces virtually no oil, or whose natural sebaceous mechanism is inhibited it would be
perfect.
However, there are always complicated skins that feel rough and dry, but you can see that there
are blackheads and pustules in the skin. The function of the sebaceous oil maybe inhibited due to
an excess cell build up on the skin. If this type of skin presents itself to you, we recommend
holding off prescribing the Seba-E until you have completed a few revision treatments and
unlocked anything that maybe trapped within the epidermis.
Often the skin once freed of the dead cell material has a normal healthy balance. However if the
client’s skin has had removal and remains feeling tight and dry, then it would be suitable to
prescribe Seba-E for the client.
Caution: Acne clients already have excess sebum in the skin. Do not apply Seba-E to acne
clients. Many Asian and other tropical countries have a lot of humidity or water in the air. Seba-E
should be used with caution in these climates as the clients for the most part will have active
sebaceous flow naturally and may not require Seba-E.
Usage
Apply 1-4(depending on oil flow) drops of Seba- E directly to the skin, up under the eye and neck area,
spray herb and mineral mist to bind together, massage into the skin. Advise the client to start with
small amounts of Seba-E, the client will only need a tiny amount as it is extremely concentrated. The
client will soon find their optimum level; if too much is applied they will feel greasy, if too little they will
feel dry. The skin will tell you what amount of Seba-E it needs.

COSMETIC CHEMISTRY ABOUT PRODUCT FORMULATION
Every company advertises active ingredients while we encourage our practitioners to seek out
knowledge regarding ingredients and what they do. We emphasize that formulations are very complex
and must be precise in manufacturing. There are no stand-alone miracle active ingredients that fix
everything, ingredients must compliment each other and provide the skin with a system, like our body
is a system.
We must look at whether a product has the appropriate delivery system and base to deliver these
ingredients effectively into the epidermis.
REMEMBER we can have a product with all the most amazing active ingredients in it, but if it is not in
the right base formulation that can penetrate the skin these active ingredients will be merely sitting on
the surface and providing little if any benefit at all. We need to get these active ingredients into the
epidermis where it can have a positive effect on the new baby cell moving through. Also products
must contain certain percentages of active ingredients in a formulation for it to work synergistically with
the skin; many products may have less than is required for results.
TRANSDERMAL DELIVERY
Transdermal delivery is a slow release delivery into the voids of the skin, where the ingredients are
stored for a period of up to eight hours. This particular method of delivery is popular in the
pharmaceutical world eg. Oestrogen patches.
All Danné cremes with the exception of the Danné Hydrophilic lubrication crème are TRANSDERMAL.
This means they are uniquely formulated to blend with plenty of water on the skin. Water acts as a
wetting agent and delivers the cremes into the voids of the epidermis where they store for hours,
delivering the active ingredients to the underlying structures of the skin.
TRANSDERMAL delivery does not mean direct penetration to the dermis. The active ingredients in all
Danné cremes influence the dermal processes via the lipid pathways between the cells, ganglia (nerve
endings) and the capillaries.
The advantage of Transdermal delivery is getting the active substances that stimulate growth and
repair of cells right down to the reproductive layer. This is the only way to ensure that for skin
disorders the therapeutic agent is delivered directly to the site. “Direct Delivery”
The Base of all Danné cremes is the same isolated soy protein base. Soybeans contain all of the eight
essential amino acids necessary for the health and life of living organisms. Adding certain ingredients
after the base is made changes the nature of the cremes from product to product.
The process at the Danne laboratories after the base is made and the ingredients are added is a long,
involved settling process. It takes over ten days to make one type of Danne creme. All herbs and plant
extracts in Danne cremes are processed by our cold soaking method. Many nutrients in herbs can be
lost with excessive heat. Because of the cold soaking process, there may be color changes to the
herbal extracts from time to time that will affect the color of the cremes, gels, or liquids. This is the
nature of Natural Pharmacology.
Although the DANNÉ team has been advocating the superior benefits of Transdermal delivery cremes,
in the medical field Transdermal delivery is becoming a preferred method of drug delivery through the
skin. Good examples would be the use of nicotine, hormone replacement therapy and sea sickness
patches. Transdermal delivery is not something new, despite marketing attempts to make us believe it
is. It is in fact as old as man himself!
Danné cremes are all Transdermal – meaning that they have the ability to store in the voids of the skin
for hours allowing the cells to draw off the nutrients as needed. This also means that we are working
on a CELLULAR level not just a topically. This is very important when choosing which crème to
prescribe.
Look at the actions of the ingredients, and look at the overall skin – ask yourself the standard
questions,
• Presenting conditions
• Skin functioning
These should be what you ask yourself every time you see a client’s skin. We are no longer working
on skin types, Keep in mind that you are a paramedical technician and what you are working with is
actually going to go into the epidermis and cause an action/s to happen.
We are working with a concept – to rub a crème on the top of the skin will not revise a skin condition.
We need to follow through and maintain with our home prescriptives but firstly we need to start with
our Remove, Rebuild, and Protect part of the concept. You will never revise a skin condition by only
using one part of this concept it works as a system together.
If a client has cell build up and is feeling dry, often it is because the skin cells on the surface are dead
and have not released properly. Under a microscope these dying or dead cells actually are smaller
than their living juicy counterpart cells sitting underneath, so the effect on the skin is like putting a
jumper on that is two sizes to small. Once this is removed for the client the living cells will be much
more likely to accept the benefits of cremes that are introduced to the skin.
Once stage 1 is complete of the removal, the next is to educate the client that it is not the weight of the
crème that is important, more importantly it is the delivery and whether the skin can in fact recognize
the ingredients to best utilize them. You can then assure the client that the Danné cremes contain the
right compliment of amino acids, proteins and fluids to enable the active ingredients to enter and
nourish the skin cells in the most effective delivery to date. This combination will ensure that the client
is relieved of the dry, tight feeling and once prescribed the correct home prescriptives and
maintenance program have a successful long-term result.
Due to the fact that all the following DANNÉ Transdermal Cremes have the same exclusive crème
base the following application techniques must be observed at all times for best results. Educate you
clients to the fact that Danné cremes are not like most cremes on the market.
Danné cremes may appear to be heavy and thick in the jar but in actual fact are formulated to expand
with Herb and Mineral Mist and disappear into the skin without leaving behind a hydroplaning film on
the skin or greasy residue. Less crème on the skin is the standard of Danné Transdermal Cremes.
The best way to apply Danné cremes is after cleansing and applying the Danné Serums, Sprays and
Oils. Take a small amount of crème from the jar with a spatula, about the size or your finger tip. Dot
small amounts of the crème around the face and neck and gently massage it into the entire area.
More Herb and Mineral Spray may be added for additional hydration.
After the crème has disappeared into the skin completely, additional Danné treatment cremes such as
Fine Line crème can be massaged into specific areas needing the extra nutrients. Danné Transdermal
Sunblock may be applied last, if needed, without the skin feeling too heavy with crème or too greasy.

Diagnosis
Similar to a “Beauty Flash” crème, as a “pick me up” for stressed, tired, dull skin. Excellent for skins
that suffer rosacea.
Unique characteristics and benefits
Thousands of people have flocked to the Asian Clinic in Europe to experience the benefits of procaine
therapy. GH 3 or Gerivitol products have been sold in the United States for oral or injected
consumption as the “Fountain of Youth”. Tests have shown the drug to have a mild tranquilizing effect
on the body. Procaine is a sister drug to zylocaine and novacaine. It can be synthesized from two B
vitamins (as Retin A is from Vitamin A) applied topically, these B vitamins break down into components
which make up the body’s stress reaction system. Procaine alone will not rejuvenate the cells or stop
the aging process. However it has been found to slow down the visual effects of aging by affecting
the connective tissues, toning and tightening with continued use.
Usage
Apply to skin dampened with Herb and Mineral Mist. Only use 2-3 times per week, do not use on a
continual basis for maximum power to relax wrinkles and firm the skin, Can be used as a day night
moisturiser when prescribed for the treatment of rosacea or people who suffer allergies to grass dust
etc.

Any skin type.
Usage
Apply a small amount to the areas that need to be protected. Reapply every 3-4 hours, or immediately

Effects
Danné Sunblock does not contain any secret screening ingredients or fine screening agents that other
cosmetic companies contain. The secret behind the DANNÉ block is that it is TRANSDERMAL. This
means that it is formulated to store in the voids of the epidermis and not just greases the surface of
the skin. Many sunblocks are very greasy and smell like coconut oil. Clients, particularly women are
reluctant to wear this type of block every day, especially under makeup. Also children do not like
applying a gooey consistency of sunblock to their skins whilst going to school.
The Danné block is light and fresh and disappears into the skin with no smell. It can be used over all
Danné crèmes, sprays and serums without feeling heavy. The Danné range took four years of
comprehensive research and has developed this double strength sunblock.
To determine what SPF (Sun protection factor) really means, you must first determine how long you
could be in the sun without any protection at all. If you could survive thirty minutes without burning,
with SPF you would multiply 30 minutes times 30 SPF. This equals 900 minutes! With one application
of Danné transdermal block you would have protection for 900 minutes before having to reapply the
product!
This would obviously not prove as effective if you lay out directly in the sun past 10 in the morning and
before 3 in the afternoon. Nor would it be as effective if you lay out directly in the sun past 10 in the
morning and before 3 in the afternoon. Nor would it be as effective if you went swimming several
times and did not reapply the block.
