ALLERGIC REACTIONS – CONTACT DERMATITIS
♥ We have never seen or heard of an allergic reaction to CELLTERMI SERUMS .
♥ We have 1 patient that is allergic to nearly every cosmetic, skin care product she has tried and dozens of medications and foods. She now uses GF Factor and Stem Serums and the only thing she experiences is… beautiful results!
WHAT COULD I BE ALLERGIC TO?
♥ Even with natural organic products, some patients are sensitive to ingredients.
These additives most likely are:
– Perfumes/Fragrances
– Dyes
– Product Filler Ingredients
– Preservatives
– Sulfates
– Harsh Exfoliants
– Essential Oils
Two Types of Allergic Reactions
♥ TYPE 1. IRRITANT CONTACT DERMATITIS – Is when a product damages your skin.
Allergic symptoms can include:
– Skin May Turn Red
– Skin May Sting or Burn
– Skin is Hot
– Skin is Itchy
♥ Reactions can appear in less than a minute to hours and days later.
♥ TYPE 2. ALLERGIC CONTACT DERMATITIS – This reaction involves your ‘Immune System’.
