Introduction About VC 15 SERUM
VC 15 Serum is a serum that acts as an antioxidant for ageing skin. It is indicated for photodamaged/ageing skin, melasma/hyperpigmentation, acne and acne scars and post-procedure inflammation. It contains L-ascorbic acid and ascorbyl glucoside as active ingredients for various skin-related problems.
Vitamin C acts as an antioxidant and protects the skin from the action of free radicals. Free radicals cause the skin to become uneven and show other signs of ageing such as uneven skin tone and fine lines. Vitamin C mitigates the action of these free radicals, thereby ensuring the delay in the visible signs of ageing.
Always use VC 15 Serum as advised by your physician. It is for external use only. Before applying, ensure that the skin area is to be managed and your hands are thoroughly clean. With the help of the dropper take 7 to 10 drops of VC 15 Serum on your fingertips. Then, dab the serum onto your face, neck and gently massage until it is completely absorbed. Avoid contact of the serum with the eyes. If any such contact occurs, immediately flush thoroughly with water.
