Clinical Results
increase in hydration in 90% of subjects on Day 3*
(No Change) in trans-epidermal water loss signaling maintenance of skin barrier state*
increase in Catalase (antioxidant enzyme) activity on average**
decrease in erythema (C-Cube) in 68% of subjects on Day 2**
*21 Men and Women, aged 19-60, with normal skin, had hydration and TEWL measured prior and post exposure. Two zones (one treated and one not) were exposed and the parameters were measured 1 h after exposure. The gel was applied at 1/2/3/4 h after exposure and at 5 h, the skin parameters were measured again. The subjects returned on days 1 and 2 to have the gel reapplied at 0/3/6/9 h. The parameters were measured again on day 3.
** 35 Men and Women, aged 19-59, had erythema measured and skin samples for measurement of skin antioxidant enzymes taken prior to exposure. Post exposure, gel was applied and the parameters were measured again on day 2. The skin samples were sent to a lab for analysis.
Minimum erythemal dose (MED) determined with a UV lamp (at least 450 lux) on back in three zones. Exposure post based line measurements was 1.5 MED UV light.
All of the below reported results were statistically significant.
RESTORE DAMAGED SKIN WITH KANGFÜ Cooling Skin Recovery Gel
The Chinese word "Kāngfù" (康复) combines "Kāng" (康), meaning "healthy" or "well-being," and "Fù" (复), meaning "to restore" or "to
return." Together, "Kāngfù" conveys the concept of healing and recovery, emphasizing a process of restoring health, strength, and well-being after illness, injury, or surgery.
The origin of the word reflects a holistic view of healing — not just curing disease but also returning to a state of balance and vitality through supportive care, therapy, and rehabilitation efforts to help individuals regain their previous level of health and activity.
Our recovery gel is designed to help skin heal quickly after an insult - UV radiation, mechanical damage, or thermal burns.
What is great about this Kangfu Recovery Gel, is that it brings together all the properties. It soothes very quickly, and that’s what patients noticed. We see a better recovery, especially post-operative and immediate post-treatment, with a very clear soothing effect. Regarding redness, there is a very significant reduction compared to other creams. On the moisturizing side, everyone saw the difference, even after aggressive treatments such as laser or radiofrequency. Its texture is very pleasant, almost odorless, invisible, and accepted even by atopic skin: no reactions observed. I am pleasantly surprised because I can recommend a single product for several indications – post-laser, post-peeling, post-radiofrequency, post-redness, post-IPL. It is very beneficial for both patients and physicians.
Having to perform procedures on a daily basis that cause temporary skin injuries, this study allowed me to appreciate the benefits of Kangfu Recovery Gel: 1) on the healing time of damaged skin: shorter than with the cream usually used; 2) On the immediate soothing effect in cases of unpleasant sensations such as dryness, heat, tightness, and burning; and 3) On the immediate and long-term anti-redness effect if application is continued.
At Codex Labs, we are excited to introduce our new KĀNGFÙ collection which allows us to address skin and barrier restoration after UV exposure, photo-therapy, or cosmetic laser procedures. KĀNGFÙ expands our portfolio to those undergoing photo-therapy for eczema or psoriasis, laser therapy for acne, or anyone suffering from a bad sunburn or intense aesthetic intervention.
This cooling face and body gel helps restore and soothe a damaged skin barrier. Made with our patent-pending, potent KāngfùComplex formula, this gel cools, re-hydrates your skin and is clinically proven to reduce the appearance of redness. Kāngfù Recovery Gel is designed for all skin types and is specifically formulated to bring much needed relief after flare-ups, sunburns, UV phototherapy, and to help skin recover after various types of skin-modifying cosmetic procedures.
