wound healing with ChitoCare® Medical

Primex Iceland is proud to announce its upgraded medical devices, ChitoCare^® Medical – with film-forming, protective and healing properties and intended for contact with skin and wounds.

ChitoCare^® Medical contains natural chitosan, a safe bioactive polymer harvested from the pristine waters around Iceland. Chitosan consists of amino sugars which occur naturally in the human body, and therefore has excellent biocompatibility.

Why chitosan? Chitosan is a functional polysaccharide providing support and under mild acidic conditions it becomes positively charged, rendering it bioadhesive to adhere as a protective film to intact or breached skin and to confer many other important biological properties. Chitosan is a true wonder from the sea as it protects the skin, reduces redness and irritation with its cooling effect, maintains moisture and promotes the skin's natural repair process.

ChitoCare^® Medical products are intended for contact with skin and wounds – intact, breached and compromised surface. Both forms of the products, the gel and spray, protect the skin and wounds against infections, and help reduce bleeding and scarring. They soothe the symptoms associated with various skin conditions.

ChitoCare^® Medical products can be applied to suit any skin area or wound shape and will dry into a thin, transparent and breathable film to protect the skin or wounded area, relieve inflammation, itching and pain by its cooling effect, maintain a proper micro-environment for rapid and natural healing. The chitosan film does not need to be removed as it will slowly be degraded during natural skin renewal.

ChitoCare^® Medical products  are CE marked medical devices in accordance with the European Directive 93/42/EEC on Medical Devices.

CHITOCARE^® Beauty Hair, SKin & Nails

The secret to looking beautiful and healthy is feeling beautiful and healthy from the inside out. Skin aging – caused by reduced antioxidant defense, skin imbalance, UV light, smoking, pollution and stress – can be slowed down with appropriate nutrient intake. Such nutrients can be found in ChitoCare^® Beauty Hair, Skin & Nails, Primex's retail-ready brand; a proprietary blend combining natural marine ingredients obtained from the crisp North Atlantic Ocean.

ChitoCare^® Beauty Hair, Skin & Nails is a revolutionary bioactive formula, rich in natural nutrients that play a crucial role in maintaining healthy skin, luscious hair and strong nails. With time, reduced antioxidant defense, sun damage, daily stressors and environmental factors can cause skin to lose its natural elasticity and glow. Skin becomes less supple, nails can become brittle and hair can lose its original thickness and shine.

Proven RESULTS FOR CHITOCARE^® Beauty Hair, Skin & Nails

• Firmer, smoother more hydrated skin
• Rich antioxidant action
• Thicker hair, brighter skin and stronger nails
• Better protection again skin aging and sun damage

Marine chitosan is supplemented with collagen type II complex that contains important building blocks that provide moisture and are crucial for skin rejuvenation. This proprietary blend is rich in glycosaminoglycans, such as chondroitin sulfate and glucosamine sulfate, that contribute to hydration and support collagen and elastin in the skin. It also contains Icelandic silica that strengthens skin, hair and nails, while mineral-rich algae and unique fibers from the pristine waters around Iceland complete this restorative formula.

This proprietary blend will nourish the dermal layer from within, resulting in firmer, smoother, softer and more radiant skin. 

Beneficial qualities of ChitoCare^® Beauty Hair, Skin & Nails

• repair damage
• fight collagen loss
• maintain skin firmness
• lock in moisture
• keep out toxins

Clinical studies have proven that algae stimulates collagen renewal in the skin and possesses nourishing, anti-ageing and moisturizing properties. Silica is a mineral compound of lava, famously found in Iceland's Blue Lagoon and known for strengthening the skin's barrier function. Silica is an essential nutrient for bone formation and the health of connective tissue and can be found in skin, nails, cartilage, tendons, bones and blood vessels. Silica reduction occurs during aging, which results in decreased collagen formation and increased degradation. Silica intake, then, can improve skin vitality and elasticity, hair thickness and strength, while it also helps reduce wrinkles and nail brittleness. It also incorporates nutrients that help protect cells from oxidative stress. 

ChitoCare^® Beauty Hair, Skin & Nails nutrients

• Vitamin C, that contributes to normal collagen formation for healthier skin, teeth, gums, cartilage and bones,
• Zinc and selenium, both of which help maintain healthy hair, skin and nails
• Magnesium, that helps lower blood pressure and chronic inflammation, which is a common driver of aging, obesity and chronic diseases,
• Calcium, essential for maintaining healthy bones, heart, muscles and nerves. With ChitoCare^® Beauty Hair, Skin & Nails you can look and feel beautiful and healthy, as nourishment comes from within.
