Acne and its Victims
In children and adolescents, acne is usually a skin disorder generally caused by hormonal changes. In adults, the causes can be multifactorial (hormonal, genetic, environmental, etc.).
People who have never suffered from a severe or resistant form of acne ignore how this disorder can negatively affect emotional balance, regardless of whether we are talking about adults, adolescents or children, thus adding even more stress, in an age of social networks and extreme mediatisation of our image.
The contemporary lifestyle causes the appearance of acne in all ages, cultures and continents. Currently, about 705 million people suffer from it daily in the world. However, there are solutions for acne, regardless of its cause (stress, diet, hormonal imbalances, exposure to pollutants or genetic factors, etc.).
AKNΦSTASIS
AKNΦSTASIS addresses a need. The company is founded by people who suffered from severe acne: Isabel (rebel acne) and Montserrat (acne conglobata). After trying many of the cosmetic solutions offered on the market, both found that the results were unsatisfactory; while in the medical field, the solutions offered often induced worrying side effects over time.
Isabel and Montserrat decided to explore together the possibility of designing an affordable, fast-acting, ergonomic and non-invasive treatment. They began investigations with a multidisciplinary team. Professionals from the fields of medicine, pharmacology, cosmetics, R&D and personal care, have worked for more than 9 years to develop AKNΦSTASIS cosmeceutical products, successfully creating avant-garde modular biotechnological formulations which are effective and safe, offering maximum dermatological tolerance confirmed by clinical tests from independent laboratories.
4A technology: At the beginning of their investigations, Isabel and Montserrat discovered that none of the anti-acne product lines on the market took into account a basic fact: once acne is resolved, how to find the right maintenance products for acne-prone skin that do not produce acne flare-ups ? They decided to additionally research cosmeceutical active principles offering cell regeneration and skin re-balancing properties. After successful integration, testing revealed that continued use of our biotechnology yielded very pronounced Anti-Age results in a few weeks, leaving a soft and balanced skin, while remaining acne-free. AKNΦSTASIS has succeed to develop and manufacture in the European Union the first line of cosmeceutical products able to combat acne, skin damage and signs of aging; independently or simultaneously, with remarkable results on all skin types. We have named this revolutionary technology 4A, as it merges intense Anti-Age + Anti-Acne effects in the same treatment.
Our goals
At AKNΦSTASIS, our sole objective is to render your skin soft, smooth and healthy, regardless of your age, and if required, to reduce the action of acne on your skin until it is no longer a problem in your life.
We reach our objetive thanks to our cutting-edge, highly efficient and safe cosmeceutical formulas, together with a network of prescribers and authorized agents. These prescribers are both beauticians and medical professionals, undergoing specific training for the administration of AKNΦSTASIS products and the monitoring of its application, able to customize the treatment in each case thanks to our modular concept.
AKNΦSTASIS formulations merge powerful Anti-acne and Anti-aging agents with selected phytoalexins, which are metabolic defense compounds that plants generate to defend themselves against pathogens. On the skin, these phytoalexins act as a toxin against Cutibacterium acnes bacteria (Propionibacterium acnes). Unlike what can happen with antibiotics, to date, this bacterium is not known to have ever succeeded to develop resistance to the phytoalexins that we incorporate into our products.
These unique features allow AKNΦSTASIS to be used day and night; short and long term; both in children and adults; modulating the treatments for each particular case with a double benefit: avoiding the negative side effects of other more aggressive treatments, and on the other hand, achieving visible and lasting results in a short time.
