Strixaderm MD Review

Overview

Strixaderm MD is a topical anti-wrinkle cream formulated by Pure Source, currently discontinued by its manufacturer. It is not clear if it is permanently discontinued; nevertheless, it will be evaluated in case it is brought back to the market.

Strixaderm MD is yet another anti-wrinkle cream promising to deliver quick, effective results, such as reducing signs of age, reducing fine lines and wrinkles, completely removing stretch marks, improving the general look of the skin, and improving the skin's elasticity (a component that decreases sagging in the skin). Strixaderm claims its one-of-a-kind formula will revitalize the skin and reduce signs of age, but they offer no evidence -- besides emphasizing the use of palmitoyl pentapetide, a chemical compound. They claim this compound helps remove wrinkles and improves elasticity in the skin.

There is no doubt any woman desires to eliminate wrinkles in a snap, and Strixaderm MD claims it can do it all. Simply apply and go about your day to see the results -- no fancy application needed. Strixaderm MD claims you'll see results in 6 weeks, and packed with a 30-day money back guarantee and a cheap price tag (one tube of Strixaderm previously retailed for $39.79), this appears to be an affordable solution for all women. Evaluating the scientific portion of its formulation will show how it truly works.

Strixaderm claims most of its success is derived from Palmitoyl Pentapeptide, also named Matrixyl by some experts. Palmitoyl Pentapeptide is a popular ingredient in many skin products, but it is not necessarily effective. Early studies show Palmitoyl Pentapeptide helped increase the production of collagen, which is a key component in skin elasticity. Strixaderm's other ingredients only help soften the skin and offer no anti-wrinkle benefits. This fact alone could be why Strixaderm is no longer available.

The Good

• Palmitoyl Pentapeptide helps increase collagen production.
• Some ingredients help improve the look and feel of skin.

The Bad

• Strixaderm MD is currently discontinued.
• It does not offer many proven ingredients.
• Buying Strixaderm MD from third-party web vendors is discouraged since there is no guarantee you will even be getting the original formula.

The Bottom Line

Consumer eager to try Strixaderm need to look elsewhere. Strixaderm is currently discontinued, as are many self-professed miracle creams, but it could have offered some skin benefits. Consumers are encouraged to look for similar products for a convenient alternative.
