Let’s start by being honest: most of us look to cover scars on our face or body. Whether acne scarring or stretch marks, we look to hide the memory of old wounds with clothes, or concealer. But what if - instead of covering old wounds - you could heal your scars and stretch marks? UK’s leading cosmetic surgeons Mr Douglas McGeorge and Dr Ardeshir Bayat have created Science of Skin with an ECGC formula to make scarring a thing of the past.
Scar tissue is different to normal tissue and often gets stuck in the healing cycle. Mast cells rush in to protect the body and create an inflammatory response - leaving you and your skin red and angry.
Every single Science of Skin product has been formulated with Epigallocatechin Gallete or ECGC - one single, remarkable ingredient extracted from green tea.
ECGC has been clinically proven to reduce scars by over 40%. This wonder extract as been carefully matched with a whole bunch of nourishing, ingredients that can further dramatically even skin tone, in the Science of Skin range.
The thing is, Science of Skin was formulated by two mighty men in the realm of scar-healing - Mr Douglas McGeorge and Dr Ardeshir Bayat. They chose to include ECGC extract knowing that studies have credibly demonstrated that topical green tea formulations reduce sun damage and ECGC in green tea thickens skin and may actually prevent skin cancer. In short, they knew it was a powerful ingredient that could give them results in their search for a solution to scarring.
Douglas McGeorge is one of the UK’s leading cosmetic surgeons, an award-winning plastic surgeon. McGeorge developed the breast reconstruction service at the Countess of Chester hospital, introducing immediate breast reconstruction to the region. He was desperate to find a way to provide patients with outstanding results - and was determined that Science of Skin’s product range would be the final hurdle in post-surgery healing.
Dr Ardeshir Bayat holds an international reputation in wound healing and skin scarring and has used his extensive knowledge to develop Science of Skin products. He is an international expert in keloid scarring (an invasive and aggressive recurrent scar type) and one of the most published scientists worldwide on this topic.
Time to get scientific… Take a moment to imagine a green tea leaf. 25% of that green tea leaf you are picturing contains catechins. The most abundant type of catechin in green tea is called Epigallocatechin Gallete or ECGC and this is the one that provides sun protection.
ECGC works as sun damage protection, firstly by destroying free radicals (tiny particles that pair with your skin’s protein on a day to day basis.) It also reduces skin inflammation caused by UV rays. Green tea will actually work in harmony with and enhance any other sun protection you choose to apply, such as your daily SPF sunscreen, protecting your delicate skin from sun-induced damage like redness, inflammation and irritation*.
But here’s where it gets really interesting… ECGC blocks collagen ‘crosslinking’ which can trigger the ageing of cells, making skin thin and tired. In Korea, researchers applied a 10% concentration of ECGC to aged human skin 3 times a week for 6 weeks and noticed that the result was increased skin thickness*.
In the same way, ECGC thickens thin, scarred skin, making it full and whole again. ECGC works hard to make your skin supple again so that you can feel confident - regardless of stretch marks, post-inflammatory acne scarring or old surgery wounds.
So not only does ECGC stop inflammation caused by the sun, it also thickens our skin and has an anti-wrinkle effect. When tested 63.6% of people said that they noticed ECGC had softened existing wrinkles**. That’s plump, thick skin, without redness, and fewer wrinkles. Of course, Science of Skin formulators knew that this ingredient would certainly work to give scars a new lease of life, as well as giving post-surgery patients a new boost of confidence.
To be clear, ECGC can be found in every single Science of Skin product. That means you can reduce the appearance of scars and boost skin's natural repair process with any Science of Skin purchase you make!
