Beta Gel, Your Skin’s Healing Hero

FROM BURNS TO BUMPS, SUTURES TO SCARRING AND EVERYTHING IN BETWEEN, DMK’S SIGNATURE SERUM BETA GEL IS A SKINCREDIBLE FORMULATION THAT CAN ALWAYS LEND A HELPING HAND.

WHAT IS IT?

DMK serums contain a full complement of vitamins, coenzymes, amino acids and other proteins that support long-term sustainable skin health and Beta Gel is one of the core serums in the DMK Home Prescriptive range. It is a highly versatile formulation that was designed for a wide variety of skin conditions including acne, premature ageing and scarring as it is intended to address immune function in the skin and improve skin strength and support the healing process in collaboration with Langerhans cell activity. It contains many notable ingredients including beta-glucan and peptides, plus vitamins A, C, D, E and K!

WHERE DID IT COME FROM?

Beta Gel was originally formulated for acne clients who found other DMK Home Prescriptives too rich for their skin as it is particularly successful on traumatised skin due to its key ingredient beta-glucan, a well-documented skin immune system supportive ingredient (1). It not only helps to heal acne it can also prevent or reduce the appearance of acne scarring. Now, this serum forms part of the core DMK Home Prescriptive range and is one of the most important products as it supports the DMK philosophy of REMOVE, REBUILD, PROTECT, MAINTAIN through its healing properties and inflammation-reducing.

WHAT IS BETA-GLUCAN?

Beta-glucans are natural cell wall polysaccharides (sugar) found in yeast, fungi (including mushrooms), some bacteria, seaweeds and cereals. They possess many wonderful effects on human health including skin regenerative properties. This involves revitalising immune cells in the skin, renewal of collagen-producing cells, strengthening the skin’s ability to deal with adverse environmental effects and promotion of  aging and wrinkles (1).

WHY IS IT IMPORTANT?

The key ingredients of Beta Gel, support Langerhans cell health, which is your skin’s in-built immune system) making this product perfect for traumatised skin or those that have experienced superficial trauma or need pre/post-operative assistance. Beta Gel also supports fibroblast cell activity which is responsible for collagen and elastin production – making it particularly helpful as an antioxidant to shield against the environmental onslaught. This especially is the case in South Africa.

Oxidation naturally occurs throughout nature and in the case of our skin, it is predominantly caused by the creation of free radicals (at a cellular level) when this skin is exposed to UV trauma.  Antioxidants like beta-glucan assist to protect the skin by limiting the production of free radicals, which can attack and damage the skin’s cells. They can do a lot for the health and appearance of your skin, including reducing the signs of aging, calming inflammation, improving healing, and helping prevent scarring.

BETA GEL CONTAINS POTENT ANTIOXIDANT AND FREE RADICAL SCAVENGING PROPERTIES WHICH ASSIST YOUR SKIN TO LOOK AND FEEL ITS BEST AND MOST VIBRANT.
