Clear Acne 3x Faster With ClarityMD Acne System, Newly Unveiled at the American Academy of Dermatology Annual Meeting

WESTLAKE VILLAGE, Calif., Feb. 28, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Envy Medical Inc., expands its skin care offerings beyond the celebrated Lumixyl^® System with the launch of the ClarityMD™ Acne Solution—in what could be the most exciting advancement in acne treatment in decades—at the American Academy of Dermatology Annual Meeting on March 1 in Miami.

The ClarityMD Acne System combines the power of the Deep Pore Cleanser and Clarifying Gel in a two-step system that's clinically proven to significantly heal acne within days. In fact, a recent study shows that ClarityMD clears acne three times faster than the leading over-the-counter and topical acne prescription products on the market today.

Envy Medical, also the makers of the popular SilkPeel^® MD, has revolutionized the way acne is treated with their new patent-pending PCX™ Technology available only in ClarityMD, which features solubilized bakuchiol and bisabolol that together help salicylic acid attack acne at its source while helping to regulate pore-clogging oil production and to reduce inflammation.

The ClarityMD Acne System will be unveiled at booth #369 on the AAD Exhibit floor. Dr. Felipe Jimenez, Envy's Chief Scientific Officer, led the development of this new technology and will be on hand to introduce the system and debut the exciting results from a new clinical study.

Accordingly to the study, the ClarityMD Acne Solution was tested on 25 volunteers that used the Deep Pore Cleanser and Clarifying Gel twice daily over six weeks. After seven days volunteers enjoyed an average 59% reduction in inflammatory acne lesions and a 14% reduction in non-inflammatory acne lesions. After six weeks, 99% of inflammatory and 56% of non-inflammatory acne lesions had been cleared. Plus, unlike benzoyl peroxide- or salicylic acid-based acne products, the results showed that ClarityMD does not dry out skin or cause irritation, redness or peeling.

"Even the best acne products can take up to six weeks to work. However, unpleasant side effects from these regimens, including dryness and irritation, often cause patients to stop using the products prior to getting relief from acne. With the launch of ClarityMD, patients can now rapidly clear their acne in a safe and effective manner," says Curtis A. Cluff, CEO of Envy Medical Inc.

The ClarityMD Acne System will be sold through dermatology, cosmetic surgery and medical spa physicians throughout the United States. The suggested retail price is $49.95 for the two-step system that includes a 6 fl oz Deep Pore Cleanser and a 1 fl oz Clarifying Gel.
