It seems that everyone's heard of the popular acne lines on the market such as Proactive. ANSR Acne Care is an entirely new way to treat acne. How does it differ from what people are familiar with?
ANSR: Acne Care promises to be an evolutionary shift in at-home skin care by utilizing the technology of phototherapy (ANSR: BEAM) and powerful patent-pending topicals (ANSR: PREP, DAY and NIGHT) to build a comprehensive solution that addresses multiple causes and effects of acne, such as excess skin surface debris, oiliness, pore-clogging sebum, bacteria, inflammation, redness and scarring.
Proactiv uses benzoyl peroxide, an old-fashioned chemical that’s been around since the 1930s. Benzoyl peroxide works by essentially drying out the skin’s sebum (that oil that lubricates and protects the skin). Because sebum is being literally dried out, many people will see a decrease in acne blemishes and breakouts at first. But eventually, the skin overcompensates and ends up producing even more oil. So it’s not an effective treatment in the long run although it does work on some people initially. In addition to drying out the skin, which can cause redness, flakiness or even cracking, benzoyl peroxide does not heal the skin or prevent future breakouts.
People are also familiar with salicylic acid for its ability to exfoliate the skin and shrink the appearance of blemishes. ANSR: contains this tried and true active ingredient, but we’ve gone a step further by combining it with new and innovative techniques and ingredients to treat acne. The ANSR: BEAM’s blue and red LED light therapy kill acne-causing bacteria and stimulate collagen production to heal the damage caused by acne. Our ANSR: topicals (PREP, DAY and NIGHT) also contain Aurazin, our botanical compound that thins skin oils gently over time without drying.
Does ANSR effectively treat cystic acne?
Absolutely! We are so excited about ANSR:’s success in treating cystic acne and we’ve made some terrific progress, especially with two of our “amazing faces” – Apryl and Chelsea – who are featured on our website and national infomercial. Apryl, 35, and Chelsea, 18, both suffered from severe, cystic acne before trying ANSR: Acne Care. Today, they have beautiful, healthy, glowing skin. But note they didn’t “cure” their acne. They both use ANSR: every day to prevent new breakouts and maintain their clear skin.
What else can you tell us about ANSR?
ANSR: Acne Care is an entirely new, different and innovative solution for treating acne. What sets us apart from the pack of other acne treatments (both over-the-counter and prescription) is that we combine a proven acne-fighting ingredient, salicylic acid, with new innovations in skin care – which are:
- The ANSR: BEAM’s blue light waves, which are scientifically proven to kill acne-causing bacteria
- The ANSR: BEAM’s red light waves, which stimulate collagen production to heal the damage caused by acne – including scars, pockmarks, redness, swelling and other signs of inflammation
- The ANSR: Topicals (ANSR: PREP, DAY and NIGHT) contain 2% salycilic acid with an innovative new compound called Aurazin, which works in advance to actually thin skin oils without drying out sebum.
ANSR: was designed to be easy-to-use, so people can reap the benefits of clinical photolight therapy – without paying the hefty price tag or having to go in and see a doctor or esthetician on a regular basis.
