Crystal Tomato

Here’s everything you need to know about Crystal Tomato in Singapore.

What is Crystal Tomato?

Crystal tomato is non-genetically-modified white tomato cultivated specifically for its skin lightening properties. 1 pill of Crystal Tomato Dietary Supplement contains active ingredients derived from 3 of such tomatoes, 100% natural, preservative-free.

What are the active ingredients in crystal tomato?

Crystal Tomato® Carotenoid is the key ingredient in crystal tomato. Carotenoids are known photoprotectants and beta-cartenoids have been used for protection against UV-light induced photodamage. An dietary intake of antioxidant micronutrients increases the skin’s defense against UV irradiation and contributes to long term protection and maintenance of the skin. Carotenoids have anti-inflammatory properties in wound-healing and UV-induced inflammatory changes resulting in skin-ageing.

In addition, L-cysteine, an amino acid, is added to Crystal Tomato supplement, as it is the precursor for the production of Glutathione. Glutathione is an important anti-oxidant that protects the skin from oxidative stress ageing. It also indirectly inhibits the action of melanin-producing tyrosinase enzyme.

What are the benefits of Crystal Tomato?

Although Crystal Tomato was initially designed for skin lightening, many people have reported the following skin improvements as well

  • Decrease in skin dryness
  • Decrease in skin roughness
  • Increase in skin suppleness
  • Improvements in skin tone
  • Improvements in skin texture
  • Quicker skin healing, especially for acne marks

Does Crystal Tomato have any side effects?

As it is a 100% natural food supplement, freeze dried with No added preservatives, Crystal Tomato is safe for daily use over an extended period of time. It is even safe for women who are pregnant. Unless you are allergic to tomatoes, or have been advised against taking tomatoes, you should not develop any side effects from taking Crystal tomato. Although it is recommended to take1 pill a day and it is definitely safe to up to 3 or 4 pills a day. We do have patients claiming to have better results when they were taking 2 pills a day compared to the recommended dose.

How long does it take to see any results from Crystal Tomato?

It would take as early as 2-3 weeks to notice improvements, but it would usually take 2-3 months for most to appreciate the general radiance and lightening effects.

What happens when I stop taking Crystal Tomato?

When you stop consuming the supplements, the skin gradually loses its benefits from Crystal tomato. It will revert back to its original form. To sustain results derived from taking Crystal tomato, continuous consumption is recommended.

Should I start taking Crystal Tomato?

Unlike lasers and injection, Crystal Tomato is risk-free and it benefits not only the skin on the face but also for the entire body! You should not be taking it if you are expecting to see drastic results from taking Crystal Tomato alone. In general, the efficacy of oral skin supplements are not well proven with good clinical studies and individual results varies. It serves as a good supplement for skin maintenance.

Crystal tomato remains one of the safest and most effective oral supplements available on the market for skin lightening. You should not expect a supplement to be as effective as a treatment.

If you are hoping to see more drastic results, the use of prescription topical creams and lasers as the first and second line of treatment for skin pigmentations should be considered and the use of sunblock is not replaceable by taking Crystal Tomato supplements.

We have received a lot of positive feedback of Crystal tomato and so many swear by it.
