The Guarantee Doctor Segalla

The human skin absorbs many of the substances applied to it, which then enter the blood system. The ingredients contained in shampoos, conditioners and other cosmetics are no exception.

Thus, it is quite important to select the right cosmetic products. Not only should they suit your skin or hair types but be respectful of the body physiology and bio-chemistry.

The majority of the products found on the market contain chemical substances which, in the long run accumulate in the skin tissues and become harmful.

Although recent researches have demonstrated how these ingredients are related to the increasing statistics of allergies, irritations, dermatitis, eczema etc.  the vast economical interests at stake makes it difficult to resolve the situation rapidly.

Fortunately, recently, more and more people have become aware of this danger and turned to natural products. Doctor Segalla, director of the Research Institute Paolo Rovesti on plants and natural derivatives, has been promoting since many years the value of natural ingredients. He has formulated many high quality herbal cosmetics for prestigious European cosmetics companies and his name has become a guarantee of very strict standards of safety, efficacy and high quality.

SPECIAL INGREDIENTS USED IN
DR SEGALLA’ s COSMETIC RANGE

VITANIM

Dr Segalla associated Neem Extract’s properties to the remarkable qualities  of Niacin and Menthol and created a new phyto-complex  named Vitanim.

• Niacin

Niacin or Nicotinic acid is a vitamin from the B group, contained in whole-wheat, brewers yeast, wheat-germ, peanuts, dates, avocados, figs, prunes, etc.

Niacin is needed for proper blood circulation and and in the metabolism of  proteins, fats and carbohydrates. Niacin gives the skin a healthier glow and contributes to the elimination of toxins that accumulate within the deep layers of the skin.

Therefore Niacin, together with the other Vitamins of the B group, is extremely important and indispensable for the health and growth of hair.

• Menthol

Major component of the essential oil of Mint, has a refreshing, stimulating and astringent action.

• Neem Extract

Neem is  a tree known with the botanical name "MELIA AZADIRACHTA L.", AZADIRACHTA INDICA Juss." or "Margosa Tree" or more simply "Neem", of the natural Order of Meliaceae.

Recent studies confirm the anti septic, anti inflammatory, and immune system stimulating properties of Neem oil. The stimulating and re-activating effect of  Neem leaf extract has been scientifically proven to arrest and correct  numerous cases of Alopecia Areata. Neem leaves are also reported to remove toxins, purify blood and prevent damage caused by free radicals in the body by neutralising them. Regular applications of lotions containing Neem oil are reported to prevent baldness and greying of the hair.

NICOMINT

A phytocomplex elaborated by Dr Segalla through a very special process able to combine mint essential oil, soia phytosterols and nicotinic acid (Vitamin B3).

The nicotinic component exerts a stimulating effect on the blood micro circulation within the skin (vaso-dilation) and simultaneously the mint and the soia phytosterol exert a vaso-constricting function. These two simultaneous effects create a deep cold/warm micro massage resulting in a lasting and pleasing refreshing sensation.

RED GRAPE EXTRACT

Flavonoids and other compounds in whole grape act as potent scavengers of free radicals involved in inflammatory processes. They also support the elasticity and integrity of collagen in joints, capillaries, blood vessels, and skin tissue.
