The Dermastir post-op bio-cellular eye & lip mask is made from the fermentation of microorganisms, not from mechanical manufacturing process. Alta Care Laboratoires utilizes biotechnology's techniques to manufacture the skin tissue-like material. This unique decongesting formula produces a protective barrier and collagen production is stimulated. This hydrating mask brightens up dark circles and the absorption of ingredients is 50 times the common eye membrane. The formula was created to inhibit enzymes that break down hyaluronic, collagen and elastin which is the underlying cause of wrinkling.
