Overview
Lipovox is not a typical acne treatment formula. This product is not a topical cream, lotion or gel, but rather is a capsule formula that is meant to be taken internally several times a day. Upon visiting the Lipovox web site and conducting research on its ingredients, the team at ClearSkinReviews.com found that the company that makes Lipovox claims that this product is not only meant for acne, but also supposed to treat wrinkles as well as help the user to lose weight. After considering these claims, and the lack of research behind these ingredients, we approached the product with a lot of skepticism that it could do anything for acne. Featured Ingredients
Upon further analysis, it becomes clear that Lipovox contains some remarkable herbs and superfood extracts, but nothing that convinces us that this product will do anything to affect acne. Even considering the fact that Lipovox contains such renowned natural ingredients as Brazilian Acai, Flaxseed and Soy isoflavones, we are not aware of any scientific data supporting these nutrients for acne reduction.
Even more concerning is that the ingredients that are claimed to help acne (Salmon Oil powder and Green Tea) have very little research concerning any effect on the skin, especially when taken internally. While Salmon oil is rich in helpful omega oils, scientists have yet to trace a definitive link between Salmon Oil and acne. While Green Tea is a powerful antioxidant and can have remarkable effects for the skin when applied topically, there are no studies that prove its effects on acne. More disturbing is the fact that the creators of Lipovox claim that Green tea works against acne because it reduces stress. But studies show that - contrary to public opinion - stress does not affect acne. A serious company with a serious interest in acne treatment should know this.
Web Site at a Glance
The web site for Lipovox is fairly simple and straight forward, but it seems to be mostly designed to hype up claims of weight loss and wrinkle reduction rather than providing convincing research on the formula’s effects on acne. Even though the product seems to have an interesting story behind it, and the author does take some time to explain the basis for some of the ingredients, as we mentioned the company fails to provide the necessary research to back up its claims.
Pros
None
Cons
- No scientific research proving ingredients’ effects on acne
- Company makes false or misleading claims about formula
- Product seems mostly intended for weight loss or wrinkle reduction, not acne
- Does not contain any known acne fighters, such as Salicylic Acid
Summary
Based on our review of Lipovox, we strongly recommend that consumers avoid this product. There is no evidence that it can help reduce acne, even though it contains various natural herbs and plant extracts that could encourage overall health. But if you are looking for targeted help against acne, we recommend looking for a topical three-step system with Salicylic Acid, Silicol Dioxide, Inflacin and QuSomes.
