Developed using proprietary IntrixylTM technology, FlexC CARE is a transdermal drug-free serum. It is made from ultra-pure and ultra-concentrated peptides that can penetrate the skin layers and permeate to the target tissues for therapeutic and rejuvenating effects. FlexC CARE can help support healthy inflammatory response, repair and rebuild joint tissues. This topical serum can be applied easily to any part of the body, including the knees, hips, shoulders and heel. It is non-greasy and non-sticky, and because it absorbs quickly, it will not stain your clothes
A peptide is a short chain of 2 or more amino acids, which combine to form proteins within the body.
Not all peptides are equal. The bioactive peptides found in FlexC CARE can penetrate deeply into the skin layers to reach the joints and muscles, not just repairing and rebuilding the tissues, it manages inflammation and thus breaks the vicious pain cycle.
FlexC CARE is the first bioactive peptide serum available in the market. It is unique and can hardly be found in any other pain relief cream, gel or serum available in the market.Without this unique and powerful ingredient, other available solutions only provide temporary relief and there is a high chance of relapse since the inflammation is not addressed. FlexC CARE not only manages the inflammation, it also nourishes, repairs and rebuilds the joint structures and muscles by stimulating the production of extracellular matrix (ECM).Providing fast pain relief, long-lasting comfort and rejuvenating effects
Not all patches or topical gels are transdermal. Most topical formulations(creams, gels, ointments and patches)only penetrate the top skin layer but do not get absorbed easily. This is due the barrier effect from the skinPatches do not enhance the ability of the active ingredients to permeate the skin.The occlusive nature of the patch drive modest amounts of the active ingredients into the skin over time. And, most of the drug applied remains in the patch.FlexC CARE has transdermal penetrating action. It can penetrate through the skin layers and reach deeper underlying joint and muscle tissues, thereby supporting repair and regeneration.
The primary active ingredients in FlexC CARE are bioactive peptides. If these peptides are taken orally, it can get degraded in the gastrointestinal tract before circulating in the body, resulting in poor bioavailability. Ultimately, only a very limited quantity of peptides can reach the affected areas to exert beneficial effects. However, topical administration of FlexC CARE serum enables peptides to permeate through the skin and directly reach the affected joints/muscles, eliciting local effects at the site of application and thus, maximizing the potency of FlexC CARE.
