The Preval Group showcasing two new products

PORTLAND, Maine The Preval Group is currently showcasing two new products for the retail channel — Wrecking Balm Tattoo Fade System and Quietus, a homeopathic remedy for symptoms of tinnitus.

With the tattoo fading system Wrecking Balm, available as a direct-to-consumer brand since 2006 and more recently through specialty channels (tattoo parlors), there is the potential for a new category in the drug channel. The product contains DemoMatic, approved as a Class I device by the Food and Drug Administration, and a Suffusion gel that helps exfoliate the upper layers of the skin, among other ingredients.

Current retail packaging contains between a one to two month supply of the product, but takes on average between six and eight months to fully fade the tattoo, which means return business.

Approximately 40 million Americans already have tattoos, the Preval Group, and citing the American Society of Dermatological Surgery, half of them consider removing permanent body art like tattoos at some point in their lives.

Quietus offers symptomatic relief to the symptoms of tinnitus, a ringing in the ears associated with exposure to loud noise that about 1-in-6 Americans experience in their lifetime. At greater risk to tinnitus are carpentry and construction workers, airport workers, gun enthusiasts and hunters, machine operators and night club workers and musicians.
