FAQ's
Will I gain volume appearance where I don’t want it?
No, the skin knows where it needs new dermal fat cells and where it does not. Unlike a powerful drug, the cream can only nurture regeneration where it is meant to happen.
Will the improvements in appearance go away when I stop using the cream?
Yes, and no. The improvements in strength appearance depend on your dermal fat cells maintaining a healthy size. If you stop using the cream, the improvements in strength appearance may go away. However, the improvements in volume appearance will last and may even continue to get better when you stop using the cream. That’s because they are driven by the skin’s natural regeneration processes.
How long do I need to use the cream to see improvements in strength appearance?
Usually, strength appearance starts to improve after three to four weeks and then stabilizes after 3 months. If you are not seeing improvements in strength appearance after three to four weeks, please schedule a free consultation with sasha@adipeau.com.
How long do I need to use the cream to see improvements in volume appearance?
Usually, volume appearance starts to improve after 6 weeks and continues to progress over many more months. If you are not seeing improvements in volume appearance after 3 months, please schedule a free consultation with sasha@adipeau.com.
Can I use Adipeau with a retinol or retin-a?
Yes, we have customers who have successfully used the cream with a vitamin-A derivative. However, we don’t recommend the use of vitamin-A derivatives because they interfere with the skin’s natural regenerative processes.
Can I use Adipeau with hyaluronic acid?
Yes, the original formulation of Adipeau even included hyaluronic acid. However, we don’t recommend hyaluronic acid because it can make the skin barrier more porous and also interfere with the skin’s natural regenerative processes.
Can I use Adipeau with niacinamide or vitamin C?
Yes, niacinamide and vitamin C support the skin in complementary ways.
Can I use Adipeau with peptides?
Yes, peptide treatments will not penetrate deeply enough to interfere with use of Adipeau. However, we recommend that Adipeau be applied before the topical peptide as these may block access to the hair follicle.
Can I use Adipeau with red light therapy?
Yes, red light therapy complements the Adipeau by stimulating fibroblasts and also by reducing the size of the dermal fat cells. It’s important no to over use red light therapy. The most established protocol is four weeks of red light treatment followed by three months off.
Can I use Adipeau with at-home microcurrent?
We cannot recommend for or against at home microcurrent devices.
Can I use Adipeau with at-home radiofrequency?
We recommend against using any type of at home radiofrequency. Until we have better information from the manufacturers on the temperature achieved in the dermal fat compartment, it is our opinion that these devices are not safe to use.
Can I use Adipeau on the hands and neck?
Yes, we have seen several cases where users achieved great results on the their hands and neck area with the cream. We can’t scan these body parts objectively with our 3D scanner.
Can I use Adipeau on the lips?
Yes, users have reported great results on the lips even though there are no hair follicles. This is likely because the barrier function of the lip skin epidermis is far more permissive than other facial skin.
