Illuminating AOX Serum from ZO Skin Health

In each issue, Modern Aesthetics® magazine asks top cosmetic doctors about the newest cosmeceuticals they are offering their patients. Here, Frank Barone, MD, Founder and Medical Director of EVOLV Plastic Surgery and Medical Aesthetics in Toledo, OH, discusses ZO Skin Health’s latest launch, Illuminating AOX Seru

What is ZO Skin Health’s Illuminating AOX Serum?

Frank Barone MD: Illuminating AOX Serum incorporates the principles of stabilization and stimulation in skin health restoration. Based on discoveries in inflammation pathway research, Illuminating AOX Serum incorporates a unique blend of powerful antioxidants, plant-derived polysaccharide enzymes and extracts, and micro minerals for synergistic and global repair and rejuvenating benefits. I started using the new Illuminating AOX Serum shortly after its release in February this year and have been recommending it to my patients since that time. Results have considerably exceeded our expectations.

How does Illuminating AOX Serum stand out from other anti-aging serums?

Dr. Barone: Illuminating AOX Serum stands out from other prevention and correction medical skincare options because of its unique and multifactorial science-based formulation. It provides simultaneous inflammation management, barrier restoration, antioxidant benefits, and most importantly, DNA protection and repair. Users also experience immediate and sustained luminosity.

How do you suggest that your patients use Illuminating AOX Serum?

Dr. Barone: I recommend that patients incorporate Illuminating AOX Serum into their morning skincare regimen and apply it immediately after cleansing/toning and before sunscreen. I suggest using the Illuminating AOX Serum and then utilizing the newly formulated ZO Daily Power Defense after cleansing in the evening for maximal rejuvenation and regeneration.

What type of results are your patients seeing with regular use of Illuminating AOX Serum?

Dr. Barone: Our patients love the immediate luminosity and hydration boost they experience with regular application of the new Illuminating AOX Serum. Consistent use produces a reduction in signs of inflammation and cellular turnover, plus all-day protection against environmental stress, resulting in more youthful and healthy looking skin.

What procedures does Illuminating AOX Serum product compliment?

Dr. Barone: We have found that the comprehensive benefits of inflammation reduction, hydration boost, and extended protection with the new Illuminating AOX Serum have significant benefits when used before and after aesthetic surgical and non-surgical procedures in all patient populations.

How does skincare fit in with your practice philosophy?

Dr. Barone: Scientifically based and personalized medical skincare has been an integral and fundamental component of our aesthetic programs for many years. Most patients are seeking the most natural and long-lasting results as well as reduction of risk in their aesthetic treatment plan whether surgical or non-surgical. For that reason, all the aesthetic providers at my practice stress a more comprehensive approach incorporating education on the importance of optimal skin health in obtaining the best results in aesthetic procedures while reducing the risk of complications.
