"By142 isn't just another skin-care line that promises to make you look good; all six of its products are good for you, too. The scar Repair feature a potent ingredient that speeds up the healing process, while the Skin Repair takes the redness out of a sunburn and doubles as a moisturizing sunscreen. And the germaphobe in all of us will opt for the Skin Fortifier: a lightweight lotion that acts as an invisible glove to help shield you from whatever that guy who just shook your hand has." - Kate Denoyer view article>>

If you're looking for a topical treatment, By142 is the way to go. Containing Rejuvenox, which has been used in the military and the medical field for wound repair, but never in a consumer product, By142 works by increasing the oxygen levels of the skin, allowing the cellular tissues to repair at a much quicker rate, in turn minimizing scarring. Studies have shown that the use of Rejuvenax, skin is able to repair itself 30 to 50 percent faster than when using non-oxygen therapy.
