Overview
The Intraceuticals Company offers skin care products and treatment aimed at healthier skin and a younger looking body. The basis of their treatments is the hyperbaric chamber which is used in conjunction with their skin care line to improve the overall results. According to the Intraceuticals Company, hyperbaric chamber therapy is the reason their skin care line if better than other competitors.
The skin care product line is available on the official website for the Intraceuticals Company, but the purchases are not made online. When the consumer wants to purchase any of the Intraceuticals Company products, they will need to choose their home state and purchase the products from the local retailer. The prices of the products range from $75.00 to $150.00. The products cannot be purchased as take home products, but rather as a session in the hyperbaric chamber. According to the information on one local portal, celebrities use the Intraceuticals Company products for 30 minutes before their appearances to improve the look of their skin.
Product Features
The three listed products on one local website include the Opulence Brightening Infusion, Rejuvenation Infusion and Atoxelene Infusion. There are no ingredient listings on the local website. The Rejuvenation Serum ingredients are listed on the Intraceuticals Company website. They include Hyaluronic Acid, Vitamin A, Vitamin C and Vitamin E. These ingredients are antioxidant rich which can help with free radical damage on the skin. The Hyaluronic Acid is also used in many antiaging products as the "fountain of youth". There are, however, no clinical studies proving the hyperbaric chamber increases the effectiveness of these ingredients.
The Intraceuticals Company gives a new spin to the antiaging world. The use of the hyperbaric chamber is unique but is not proven to work better than traditional treatments just cost more. It is also a negative that a complete ingredient list could not be found. There could be ingredients in the product line that would case irritation and breakouts for people with sensitive skin. This is a huge oversight by the company.
The Good
- A few of the products contain Hyaluronic Acid.
- There is an official website with local contact information.
The Bad
- There is no all inclusive ingredient list for the Intraceuticals Company products.
- No clinical proof exists for the use of the hyperbaric chamber.
- The products are not hypo-allergenic.
- The prices include the use of the hyperbaric chamber which may not increase effectiveness.
The Bottom Line
When a company charges from $75.00 to $150.00 for a treatment, that company needs to support their ingredients with clinical data. This is not the case with the Intraceuticals Company. The product descriptions elude to some of the ingredients used but not a complete listing. The antiaging market is strong and many consumers are willing to offer both complete ingredient lists and clinical proof that their products work to improve the look of the skin. The Intraceuticals Company is not one of these companies.
