Hydra defense serum significantly improves the appearance of skin prone to acne by enhancing the skin's natural defense barrier against blemishes, irritation, and inflammation. This is done by stimulating human-β-defensin -2 and -3, increasing the skin's natural defense system, therefore maintaining the balance between commensal microbes and pathogens in the skin. The result is a decrease in sebum production, redness, and the presence of blemishes while increased quality in skin texture and smoothness.
