ZitSticka, which bills itself as a “tech-meets-skincare brand” has rolled out Killa, a new patch featuring “microdart” technology to effectively resolve newfound, upcoming and early-stage acne.
"Most existing acne solutions come with big promises, yet serious limitations as most address the uppermost layer of skin," said Daniel Kaplan, co-founder of ZitSticka. "We set out to develop an active product that permeates beyond the epidermal layer, and into a zit's nucleus. After countless hours of research, and trial and error, ZitSticka was born."
When Killa is pressed to the skin, the patch's adhesive backing encloses the early-stage zit, keeping the area protected and sterile. Freeze-dried microdarts penetrate both the stratum corneum and epidermis then self-dissolve within two hours, depositing powerful acne-fighting ingredients directly inside the zit.
The treatment features hyaluronic acid, niacinamide, salicylic acid and Oligopeptide-76.
In early trials, 89% of users noticed a visible reduction in both the size and redness of their zit after a single application, according to the company.
According to dermatologist Dr. Melissa K. Levin, by harnessing transdermal technology, ZitSticka acne patches are “a breakthrough in offering a gentle yet effective spot treatment to be used within a skincare regimen.”
The patch is designed to be transparent and discreet, giving wearers the confidence to go about their daily activities.
The Killa kit is available online for $29. which includes eight patches and eight priming Cleana swabs. The line is being sold on www.zitsticka.com.
