Whether it's on social media or reality television, you might be noticing that filler and injectables are everywhere these days. (I know I have!) And while those products have their place in the world of medical aesthetics, I personally favor a less invasive—and more natural—approach to treating fine lines and wrinkles.
I'd like to introduce you to Hevatox. This Korean skincare line is a great alternative to injectables, and uses natural peptides to relax the muscles in the face (which is exactly what injectables do).
Keep reading to learn more about the different products in the Hevatox line (and what makes them so special!), and to get my pro tips as a long-time master esthetician for integrating this product into your skincare routine.
Hevatox uses SP1-TOC Botulinum Polypeptide, a revolutionary, patented topical lifting protein. You won't find this ingredient in any other skincare line! This ingredient mimics the effects of injectables, but doesn't require needles. Instead, it goes on topically.
This polypeptide helps relax the muscles in your face, which softens the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. The active ingredient in popular injectables like Botox is a very similar polypeptide, which is injected to relax the facial muscles that cause frown lines, eleven lines, crow's feet, and other pesky wrinkles.
Botulinum polypeptides are neurotoxins created from a bacterium called Clostridium botulinum. If you're thinking 'botulinum' sounds familiar, you're not wrong. The toxin produced by that bacterium is what causes botulism—a bacterial infection humans can get from eating improperly canned foods. But there's nothing to worry about when it comes to skincare!
Though botulinum toxins occur naturally in soil and contaminated foods, the polypeptide neurotoxin used for medical and aesthetic reasons is produced in a lab. And while injectable forms should always be administered by a licensed healthcare provider, Hevatox's powerful polypeptide treatment can be used at-home by anyone.
My favorite thing about Hevatox is that it's gentle enough for daily use and suitable for most skin types—even sensitive skin. You can easily incorporate it into your skincare routine. Unlike injectables, there's no need to routinely go into an office for expensive treatments. (It just doesn't get better than getting near-medi spa results in the comfort of your own home, am I right?)
Here are some of the ways you can add Hevatox products to your skincare routine:
Exfoliation is a key step in any skincare regimen. If you're looking to target fine lines and wrinkles, switch your current exfoliant for the Hevatox exfoliating pads. Formulated with PHA and AHA, as well as Hevatox's powerful polypeptides, these exfoliating pads wipe away dead skin cells, fight visible signs of aging, and help give your skin a smoother, firmer look.
I love an ampoule—these highly-concentrated serums can address a range of skin concerns, including fine lines, hyperpigmentation, and dryness. They make great additions to just about any skincare routine. My current favorite is the Hevatox Gold Ampoule. In addition to Hevatox's exclusive SP1-TOC polypeptide, this ampoule is made with pure 24-carat gold!
Gold in skincare can help firm and tighten the skin, and also slows down collagen depletion, which can help prevent premature wrinkles. Start incorporating this ampoule into your routine after exfoliating. Over time, you should notice renewed, brighter skin.
You can take your at-home Hevatox routine a step further by pairing the ampoule with the Skin Wand Pro, a nanochanneling device that exfoliates the skin and allows for deeper product penetration. This handy gadget is designed with a silicone tip that allows you to get in those hard-to-reach spots, including sensitive areas around the eyes. The Skin Wand Pro also maximizes the amount of ingredient you use, so you just need a small amount of the Hevatox Gold Ampoule.
To use the Skin Wand Pro, just apply a few drops of the Hevatox ampoule directly to the target area on the skin, whether that's on your forehead or around your eyes. Then, move the device in small, circular motions to allow for exfoliation and penetration.
Many of my clients show concern about the fine lines and dark circles around their eyes. Fortunately, Hevatox has a solution for that. Their Gold Eye Lift Cream is formulated specifically for the delicate skin around your eyes. Packed with that magical ingredient, SP1-TOC, this eye cream also has 24-carat gold... just like the ampoule! And a little bit of this cream goes a long way—you can use it morning and night, massaging it into the skin with the applicator. With consistent use, you may notice tighter skin, reduced puffiness and darker circles, and brighter, more youthful-looking eyes.
I absolutely love using Hevatox with the House of PLLA facial filling line. Like Hevatox, House of PLLA focuses on getting injection-inspired results with topical products. This product line uses a patented ingredient, Poly-L-Lactic Acid (PLLA) that can help soften fine lines by adding volume into the skin. When you combine Hevatox with PLLA, you're getting the benefits of injectable treatments... without any of the needles or downtime. Personally, I love using the House of PLLA Multi-Serum and Repair Cell Moisturizer alongside my Hevatox products.
With increasingly powerful products available on the market, like Hevatox, premium skincare is more accessible than ever. If injectables are part of your current skincare routine, and you're looking for a lower-maintenance, more affordable, and more convenient option, I highly recommend incorporating Hevatox products into your home regimen.
