Product summary

Based on the ingredients included, "Skin Doctors - Professional Results Gamma Hydroxy Cream" works well for moisturizing the skin. To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. Skin Doctors - Professional Results Gamma Hydroxy Cream ticks this box. Hydrolyzed soy protein, aloe barbadensis extract, caprylyl glycol and propylene glycol in this product (humectants) attract water molecules to the upper layer of the skin (the water comes from the outside air or from the deeper layers of the skin if the air is dry). Emollients in this formulation (paraffinum liquidum, butyrospermum parkii butter, cera alba, cetyl palmitate and c13-14 isoparaffin) help to reduce the moisture loss from the skin. They also soften the skin surface and relieve the feeling of dryness and tightness.
