Medik8 Red Alert Body

Professional Strength
Anti-Redness Formula

Helps to fade and clear thread veins, skin redness and bruises, by promoting anti-oxidation, vein-wall strengthening and enhanced coagulation (blood clotting at site of capillary damage). There is no stronger topical formula for cosmetically managing skin redness.

Developed for direct body application. For use on all skin types.

Medik8 Red Alert visibly reduces the appearance of thread veins and has a brightening effect on the skin. It also slows down the process of skin ageing, by protecting the skin from free-radical damage and effectively alleviates the negative environmental impact on the skin. This strong anti-thread vein product contains specially selected pharmaceutically graded ingredients, such as vitamin K, Liquorice and Bearberry, which have a strengthening and sealing effect on open vessels and thread veins. It enhances the blood circulation, reduces swelling and redness, reduces fragility of blood vessels and dramatically limits the creation of further damages.

The addition of Teprenone helps with vein-wall strengthening, as well as promoting a reduction in skin erythema (redness). Teprenone has demonstrated a reduction of erythema by 30%, after just 30 days of topical application. The combination of vitamin K and Teprenone make
Red Alert a very powerful anti-redness treatment.

Red Alert has been further enhanced by the addition of beta-Glucan, a polysaccharide derived from oats. This soothing ingredient aids skin with wound-healing and helps to combat UV-induced stress, leading to calmer skin.

Additionally, Red Alert promotes powerful anti-oxidation and enhanced blood coagulation, ensuring blood clotting at the site of capillary damage.

Red Alert has been specifically designed to treat areas of redness on the body. However, the formula can be enhanced with addition of Red Alert Serum to treat more difficult areas of erythema, on either the face or body, for more dramatic results.
