Age Defying Wrinkle Reducer
What is Hydrodermâ„¢?
With its revolutionary patented collagen delivery system, which transports whole collagen molecules directly to the skin, Hydroderm™ Wrinkle Reducer is specially formulated to make skin look brighter and smoother.
What the Age-Defying Wrinkle Reducer Does
While many factors help keep skin young, soft and radiant, one of the most crucial involves collagen. More collagen is contained within the skin than any other protein, but collagen is constantly changing and adapting, as it gets exposed to many types of external factors (such as sun, weather, etc).
Scientists now know that the gradual loss of collagen results in visibly dry, wrinkled, furrowed and dull skin. As collagen gets depleted, skin loses a key to its continued vitality. That’s why it begins to sag, crack and wrinkle as you age.
Collagen is a primary component of healthy skin, yet it is a large molecule that is difficult to deliver through topical application. Most skin creams only feed the skin smaller molecules, such as partial proteins, hydrolyzed collagen (smashed up collagen molecules), vitamins and minerals. Until now, many people turned to doctors to restore collagen with direct injections. But injections are costly, inconvenient and irritating.
Hydrodermâ„¢ helps solve that problem. After years of testing, Hydrodermâ„¢ scientists developed the unique Collagen Infusion Delivery System, a transdermal formula that actually delivers whole collagen molecules directly to the skin by ensuring the delivery of full collagen molecules to the skin. This invention was granted a U.S. Patent (#6,759,056) on July 6, 2004.
How to Use the Wrinkle Reducer For best results, use the Hydrodermâ„¢ Wrinkle Reducer at least twice a day. In the morning, wash your face thoroughly with warm water and your favorite cleanser. Shake the bottle well. Release the serum onto your fingertips. Apply the formula to skin. Use enough of the serum to cover with a substantial layer.
Allow Hydrodermâ„¢ to settle in for a few minutes before applying a moisturizer (such as Hydrodermâ„¢ Intense Oil-Free Moisturizer) or makeup. In the evening, use Wrinkle Reducer after washing and cleansing your face before bedtime.

Every month you can tell it's working a little better. The first couple of weeks I saw a tremendous change. And every week after that, you just keep noticing. It's a phenomenal product. I'm gonna use it forever. Since I've been using Hydrodermâ„¢, it really does make me feel more self confident.

When I first started using Hydrodermâ„¢ I noticed it softened the skin around my eyes. And it softened around my mouth. I feel younger, I look younger and I would recommend it to my friends, you know, why not look a little younger? - Jane Davison, 36
I have every reason in the world to continue this product. I've had people come up to me so many times and have asked me, have you had plastic surgery? No I have not had plastic surgery.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is Hydrodermâ„¢?
A: Hydroderm'sâ„¢ Wrinkle Reducer is an advanced skin-care serum that helps diminish the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines and other signs of premature aging. It is a patented formula that has been shown to deliver full, whole collagen molecules to the skin, an effect previously available only through injections.
Collagen is a protein with a high molecular weight that cannot penetrate into skin through topical (cream) application. Hydroderm is the only product patented to deliver whole collagen directly to the skin, without painful injections. It utilizes a patented Collagen Infusion Delivery System to achieve this result.
Q: Why does my Hydrodermâ„¢ full supply look or feel different than what I expected?
A: Some customers may notice that the thickness, consistency and translucence of the formula may differ from what they expect. Depending on the way that the product was shipped to you (either through airmail or ground delivery), certain temperature and/or pressure changes can affect the formula's look and feel.
However, the shipping method does not affect how Hydrodermâ„¢ will work for your skin. Each supply of Hydrodermâ„¢ contains the same concentration of collagen and Vyo-Serum, which will still promote younger looking skin.
Q: What does Hydrodermâ„¢ contain?
A: Hydroderm'sâ„¢ Wrinkle Reducer consists of two unique compounds. It employs the Collagen Infusion System, a patented cosmetic technology, to deliver full, whole collagen molecules (derived from natural marine collagen sources) to the skin. Meanwhile, its Vyo-Serum helps support the new collagen by creating a firming, hydrated look and feel.
Hydrodermâ„¢ also contains other supporting nutrients and skin cream binders, which ensure its consistency, purity and function. These include: Distilled water, Cephene, Methylparaben, Ethylparaben, Propylparaben, Butylparaben, Isobutylparaben, Synasol, Purified water, Sodium Methylparaben, Imidezolidinyl Urea, Trisodium EDTA, Potassium Sorbate, Citric Acid and Ascorbic Acid.
Q: What is the Collagen Infusion System and how does it work?
A: The Collagen Infusion Delivery System (the technology) is a patented, liquid-based solution that will allow a wide range of large molecules to absorb through human skin. Hydrodermâ„¢ researchers utilized this technology and added marine collagen to the solution, which provides the skin with natural, whole collagen molecules that help restore and rejuvenate your skin's essential material.
Q: What is the Vyo-serum and how does it work?
This protein concentrate called Vyo-Serum helps produce an immediate tightening effect and increase moisture content. Vyo-serum works as an instant lifting serum and active anti-aging ingredient.
Hydrodermâ„¢ researchers found that Vyo-serum performs three vital functions for the skin:
1. Firms: Vyo-serum is enriched with highly concentrated proteins that gently pull on the skin's surface and create an instant tightening effect.
2. Hydrates: The firming action of Vyo-serum on the skin's surface helps trap water molecules, retaining moisture and softness.
3. Smoothes Wrinkles: As Vyo-serum firms the skin, it helps to gradually reduce the appearance of wrinkles, grooves, furrows and lines, adding to Hydroderm'sâ„¢ overall smoothing potential.
Q: Anything else I should know about Hydrodermâ„¢ and its ingredients?
- The collagen comes from marine sources, such as plants and fish.
- Imidezolidinyl is a urea-derived preservative.
- All ingredients in the "paraben" family are preservatives.
- Hydrodermâ„¢ has a two-year shelf life.
- Hydrodermâ„¢ has been sold since July 2003.
Q: What size bottle does Hydrodermâ„¢ come in?
A: The full sized bottle, which usually lasts around two months, comes in a 30 ml bottle.
Q: Is Hydrodermâ„¢ approved by the FDA?
A: Because Hydroderm'sâ„¢ Wrinkle Reducer is not a drug, it does not have to undergo the strict review process that drugs do. So it does not literally need to be approved by the FDA to be sold. However, Hydroderm's researchers follow the FDA's guidelines on product research, substantiation and formulation when designing this product.
All facilities involved with the manufacture of Hydrodermâ„¢, from the initial collagen extraction to the glass manufacturer who makes the bottles, operate under Hydroderm'sâ„¢ strict requirements for precision, cleanliness, efficiency and ingredient purity. In addition, Hydrodermâ„¢ initiates random and independent tests of its product to ensure its consistency.
Q: Is Hydrodermâ„¢ safe for all ethnicities and skin types?
After focus group testing, clinical studies and customer response data analysis, Hydrodermâ„¢ is confident that the Wrinkle Reducer can be used safely and effectively by all skin types. Hydrodermâ„¢ did not cause allergic reactions among test subjects. However, each person's physiology is different and there are literally thousands of different types of skin allergies.
If you are concerned about how this formula will react with your skin, it is best to conduct an initial skin test of Hydrodermâ„¢ (something we recommend whenever trying out any new cosmetic product) and/or consult with a health professional.
Q: Does Hydrodermâ„¢ cause itching or rashes?
A: Hydrodermâ„¢ has been tested by dermatologists and passed irritation tests. Please Note: It is extremely important that you wash your face with tepid water thoroughly before applying, as interaction with other products might cause an itching sensation. Please do not hesitate to contact your physician if you have any further problems or questions.
Q: Is Hydrodermâ„¢ safe for all ages?
A: Most of those who use Hydrodermâ„¢ Wrinkle Reducer are older than 30. Some customers are even 80 and 90 years old. However, people of all ages have enjoyed success with Hydrodermâ„¢. Hydrodermâ„¢ does not contain steroids, so it does not adversely affect teenagers or adolescents. However, to be sure, contact your personal physician if you have concerns about using Hydrodermâ„¢.
Q: What about other medical questions and safety concerns?
A: Most of those who use Hydrodermâ„¢ Wrinkle Reducer are older than 30. Some customers are even 80 and 90 years old. However, people of all ages have enjoyed success with Hydrodermâ„¢. Hydrodermâ„¢ does not contain steroids, so it does not adversely affect teenagers or adolescents. However, to be sure, contact your personal physician if you have concerns about using Hydrodermâ„¢.
Q: Can men use Hydrodermâ„¢?
A: Absolutely. Hydrodermâ„¢ Wrinkle Reducer has been successfully used by both men and women. While many women love the soft, sensual and age-defying look and feel of this formula, many men love the sense of youth, confidence and extra appeal that they get from Hydrodermâ„¢.
Q: How do I apply Hydrodermâ„¢?
A: Use this simple process to apply Hydrodermâ„¢ and see best results.
1. First, cleanse your face with your favorite cleanser and warm water to help open pores.
2. Pat your face dry.
3. Before opening, shake the bottle of Hydroderm well.
4. Release several drops of the formula on the palms of your hands and/or fingertips.
5. Apply Hydroderm generously over your face and neck, making sure to avoid your eyelids.
6. Allow the formula to set in for 5 to 10 minutes.
7. For best results, you should use Hydrodermâ„¢ twice a day: once in the morning and once in the evening.
Q: How often do I need to apply Hydrodermâ„¢?
A: For best results, apply Hydrodermâ„¢ once in the morning-after you have finished your morning cleansing and before applying your makeup-and once in the evening before sleep, after you have rinsed off your makeup and finished your nightly cleansing.
Q: How quickly will I see results? How long do results typically last?
A: You will begin to see results within a few days. In a recent survey of Hydrodermâ„¢ users, 9 out of 10 test subjects reported significant results within the first 21 days of use. Plus, during an independent study, Hydrodermâ„¢ reduced wrinkled length and thickness by a combined 63.5% within only 90 days. For best results, try Hydroderm for at least 30-60 days. The longer and the more consistently you use the formula, the more dramatic the results!
Unlike other creams and many cosmetic treatments, Hydrodermâ„¢ actually rejuvenates the skin with full, collagen molecules-the natural component of youthful skin. Results may last for months, even if use of the formula is ended. However, Hydrodermâ„¢ will continue to restore and revive your skin as long as you use the product, while other formulas (which rely on partial proteins and vitamins) eventually fade.
Q: Can I use Hydroderm with other acne medications?
A: In general, it is safe to use Hydrodermâ„¢ with acne medications, because most of the ingredients in these medications tend to work on different areas of the skin. However, we recommend consulting your doctor before combining.
Q: Does Hydroderm need to be used alone, or can it be used with other face creams or serums?
A: Hydrodermâ„¢ can be used along with most moisturizers, but it is recommended that you let the formula settle for 10 minutes before applying any other product, including makeup. Please do not use Retin-A products with Hydrodermâ„¢, because the interaction may cause irritation. If you are concerned about any possible interaction between Hydroderm and your other products, please consult with your physician, dermatologist or other health professional.
While we cannot vouch for moisturizers, cleansers and toners designed by other companies, Hydrodermâ„¢ has developed a few supporting facial formulas to work along with the Wrinkle Reducer. All of these products offer additional and unique anti-aging effects for your skin.
Q: Does Hydroderm have any side effects?
A: No, but if you are concerned or desire more information, we recommend you discuss with your physician.
Q: Is Hydroderm safe to use while pregnant?
A: We recommend that you consult your physician before using any medication during pregnancy.
Q: Can I wear make-up with Hydroderm?
A: Yes, but it's best to look for makeup products that are non-comedogenic and oil-free. Plus, always apply Hydroderm to your skin before using makeup, so that the Wrinkle Reducer comes in directly contact with the skin and can deliver its restorative collagen molecules instantly.
Q: Is it safe for me to use Hydroderm if I'm going to be in direct sunlight?
A: Generally, yes. For some, the ingredients used in Hydrodermâ„¢ may make skin more sensitive to the sun, especially those with fair skin. To be safe, we recommend that you always apply a moisturizer with at least a sunscreen rating of SPF 15 after applying Hydrodermâ„¢ and before you go out into direct sunlight.
Q: Is it safe to use Hydroderm if I'm going to be in a tanning bed?
A: Because tanning beds expose your skin to extreme levels of UV radiation, which may react with the ingredients in Hydrodermâ„¢, we recommend that you avoid tanning beds. While most people using Hydrodermâ„¢ do not have a reaction to normal levels of direct sunlight, tanning beds pose greater risk. Several recent studies suggest that tanning beds, even for those with resistant skin, may not be a wise choice anyway, for they may contribute to damage that develops over the long-term.
Q: Is Hydroderm safe?
A: After focus group testing, user studies and customer response data analysis, Hydrodermâ„¢ is confident that the Wrinkle Reducer can be used safely and effectively. Hydroderm did not cause allergic reactions among test subjects. However, each person's physiology is different and there are literally thousands of different types of skin allergies.
If you are concerned about how this formula will react with your skin, it is best to conduct an initial skin test of Hydrodermâ„¢ (something we recommend whenever trying out any new cosmetic product) and/or consult with a health professional.
Q: What sort of scientific literature exists about Hydroderm?
A: In April 2004, Life Extension magazine published an independent report on Hydrodermâ„¢, attesting to its wrinkle-reducing effects. Life Extension researchers also conducted their own informal study of Hydrodermâ„¢ with volunteers, many of whom reported improvements in the appearance and texture of their skin. Hydrodermâ„¢ has also conducted its own research on the Collagen Infusion Delivery System and the other ingredients in the formula.
Q: Is Hydroderm recommended for people with sensitive skin?
A: Although there are no known side effects for Hydrodermâ„¢, everyone should conduct a skin test before using the formula, especially those with sensitive skin. To ensure that you're not sensitive to any of the ingredients, apply a small amount of the formula to the inside area of your wrist overnight. If minor irritation occurs, reduce the amount of product that you use to see if your sensitivity continues. It takes some people a few days for their skin to adjust to a new formula. If major irritation occurs, discontinue use immediately.
Q: Is Hydroderm hypo-allergenic?
A: While Hydrodermâ„¢ is generally gentle and non-irritating, those with skin allergies should conduct a skin test of the formula and/or consult with their dermatologist or physician before using the product to make sure that it does not aggravate allergic condition.
Q: Is Hydroderm fragrance free - without even a masking fragrance?
A: Yes. Hydrodermâ„¢ does not contain any fragrance or fragrance-derived compounds.
Q: What does Hydroderm do to promote or NOT promote white heads?
A: While the ingredients in Hydrodermâ„¢ are non-clogging, some individuals may be sensitive to specific cosmetic formulas. To make sure that Hydroderm does not cause white heads to form, it is recommended that you conduct a skin test of the product before using a full amount.
Q: Is Hydroderm non-comedogenic and recommended by dermatologists?
A: Some of the ingredients may be irritating to sensitive individuals with previous skin conditions, so it therefore cannot be considered non-comedogenic. However, several dermatologists have recommended Hydrodermâ„¢ as an alternative method of decreasing fine lines and wrinkles.
