Glucosamine is an amino sugar typically formed in the body from glucose. It is the initiating point for the synthesis of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), including hyaluronic acid. This dietary supplement is known to support the body’s connective tissue and joint functions. Studies have also shown Glucosamine to speed healing in wounds and controlled injuries such as CIT/ Micro-needling.
The rapid production of HA by Fibroblasts in the early stages of wound healing may be of crucial importance, as Hyaluronic acid stimulates the migration and mitosis of mesenchymal and epithelial cells. Increased levels of HA, observed during fetal wound healing, are also achieved by the topical application of HA during wound dressing, and are associated with quicker healing & reduced scarring. Glucosamine availability appears to be rate-limiting for Hyaluronic acid synthesis. Thus, oral administration of adequate amounts of Glucosamine during the first few days after surgery or trauma enhance Hyaluronic acid production in the wound, and promote swifter healing and fewer complications related to scarring.

My husband uses this and swears he can tell a difference in his joints. He has knee pain and takes it daily for relief.
Gentle exfoliation. Cosmetically elegant! Whether you’re trying to target acne, pigmentation or healthy aging you must add it to your routine.
I have a love/hate relationship with this tips. The nano-infusion results are great then the actual cartridge fit properly in device. I have been having this issues for a while I'm not sure if anyone else does but its annoying. Herbal Skin Solutions have reached for to me to help me fix the issue but to this day I am still having issues with some of the tips... its like Russian roulette. I have also watched all of the troubleshooting video to assist my efforts. The company is great with aiding me in trying to resolve the issue... its just the cartridges they have too expensive too have the problem. This has made me wary of performing microneedling with my CIT pen, Im afraid of harming someone
I am so thankful I found hair restoration! This serum is amazing! My clients love the results!
This is my go to cream when working with compromised barriers. Ideal for post care peels, and needling (after 12 hrs). Clients love the hydration and creamy, yet not heavy texture.
