The ten year anniversary of
Circadia by Dr. Pugliese, Inc. in 2012 marked a culmination of the
vision held by its founder. Peter T. Pugliese, MD, the esteemed educator and
author of Advanced Professional Skin Care, Medical Edition, has taught
the science of skin to estheticians for more than thirty years. Over the last
decade, the specialized Circadia brand of professional skin care products has
demonstrated that exceptional results can be achieved with the combined
disciplines of sound scientific principles and skilled cosmetic chemistry.
The Circadia name derives from the
Latin circa dies, meaning “around the day”. Circadia utilizes the body’s
own circadian rhythms, defending the skin from environmental insult during the
day, and safely stimulating repair mechanisms during sleep. The professional
treatments are distinguished by Dr. Pugliese’s discovery that natural repair can
be achieved without inducing damage. The signature SWiCH Dermal Rejuvenation
System is a peel alternative that safely stimulates the Krebs cycle to enhance
energy production and cell turnover. Circadia body care includes the most
effective anti-cellulite treatment product in the industry, a category pioneered
by Dr. Pugliese’s research.
Through a close association with
the Society of Cosmetic Chemists, Circadia remains current and at the crest of
scientific new product development. Circadia has recently introduced fifteen new
products, as well as updates to the classic formulas which have built the brand
over the last decade. New-generation peptides, vitamins, botanicals,
anti-oxidants, stem cells and emollients have been carefully selected for
inclusion in these line extensions. The products also utilize non-paraben
preservative systems. The expansion of Circadia specialty items includes
cleansers, lotions, mists and serums for the comprehensive treatment of
wrinkles, pigmentation disorders, acne and rosacea. An impressive new packaging
rollout has enhanced the retail shelf appeal of the product. The selected
package components support renewable energy, so that beauty of the new look is
matched by an environmental consciousness.
An enthusiastic team of
distributors, reps, and trained estheticians are accessible in the Circadia
booth at every major skin care event throughout the year. Demonstrations and
lectures throughout the country are listed on the website at
www.circadia.com
The Circadia corporate facilities
are located in rural Pennsylvania, just a few miles from the original clinic and
laboratory where Dr. Pugliese performed his groundbreaking anti-aging research.
The facility houses operations, product development and manufacturing under one
roof. The Circadia Institute offers periodic seminars in its Pennsylvania
classroom and in key cities across the US.
One of Circadia’s key strengths in
the marketplace is the customized ordering process. New accounts are not
required to purchase a pre-packaged opening order. Each practice is evaluated to
serve the needs of its clientele, allowing customers to grow along with the
brand. Practitioners who offer Circadia services and retail products are trained
in-house by a dedicated representative from one of the regional distributors
across the country. Circadia has an emerging international presence in European,
Asian and Middle Eastern markets.
Circadia by Dr. Pugliese, Inc. has
a rich history and a bright future. Dr. Pugliese, at age 87, remains a strong
and influential voice in the science of aging skin. Michael Q. Pugliese has
earned a distinguished reputation as a lecturer in skin science, and an
innovator in new product formulation. He will continue to drive new product
development for Circadia, achieving a unique blend of cosmetic elegance and peak
performance in professional skin care products.
