| Factor-A Lotion is a cutting edge technology that utilizes a form of Vitamin A called Retinol (all-trans-retinol / ROL). Numerous medical studies have confirmed that Retinol has the activity and efficacy of Retinoic Acid (the active form of Vitamin A in Retin-A™) without many of the side effects.
Jan Marini Skin Research has identified new stabilization and delivery components that enable Retinol to be delivered in a stable fashion where it is converted by certain enzymes into Retinoic Acid, while avoiding superficial redness, peeling and irritation. Some recent studies demonstrate that stabilized Retinol may be more active in the skin than Retinoic Acid.
Dramatic improvement can be observed with regard to reversing the appearance of aging and photo-damaged skin. All trans retinol is also a potent tool in treating acne and maintaining clearing.
