Overview
Provectin Plus appears to be an alternative to Strivectin-SD. Provectin Plus is produced and distributed by Walgreens drugstores and is primarily available through its retail stores. But Provectin Plus can also be purchased online at Walgreen’s web site. While we are aware of Strivectin’s success through its online and print marketing efforts - and it makes sense that others would try to capitalize and offers its own versions of this formula - we have had only mixed results with Strivectin. Thus, we did not initially have high hopes for Provectin Plus, either, especially in terms of its ability to fight aging in the eye area.

Featured Ingredients
Provectin Plus contains virtually the same ingredients as Strivectin-SD. Therefore, it seems to be primarily intended as a formula for aging in the entire facial area. For example, it contains both Matrixyl 3000 and Argireline, which are known for their effects on wrinkles and fine lines. Matrixyl 3000 does seem to have an ability to fight again by stimulating the production of collagen, which will counteract a main cause of wrinkling. In addition, Argireline does have some potential as an amino acid derivative that helps to relax facial muscle contractions, which are often responsible for cause wrinkles and fine lines to form. Based on these ingredients alone, we think that Provectin Plus may offer at least a moderate anti-wrinkling effect. However, we also know that Strivectin received many complaints about its SD formula because it caused irritation in the eye area for many of those who used it, which is why they created a separate formula that contain a non-irritating base.

To be fair, Provectin Plus does contain one ingredient that is different from Strivectin SD. It contains Dermaxyl, which is a complex of enzymes meant to promote healthy circulation in the blood vessels that supply the eye area skin. This could have a potential to help reduce puffiness and dark circles, but in our experience Dermaxyl has only a moderate effect unless it is combined with other circulation-enhancing ingredients, such as Actiflow, or lighteners and brighteners like Lipolight. Therefore, in our opinion Provectin Plus will only produced limited results, and it may take a while to notice them. 

Web Site Description
Provectin Plus does not have its own web site but rather, as we mentioned, the product is offered on Walgreens company web site and through its retail stores. Therefore, the information provided on the web site was rather limited in nature. Only a basic list of ingredients was provided and a brief overview of the main effects given. No customer testimonials were included.

Positives
- Dermaxyl does seem to have a moderate effect on dark circles

 Negatives
- As an alternative to Strivectin, may not contain optimum ingredients

- Product is not available as a free trial

- No customer testimonials are included

Conclusion
Since we are not impressed by Strivectin facial anti-aging formula or its eye treatment product, it makes sense that we likewise would have our doubts about Provectin Plus, which is promoted as an alternative to Strivectin. Interestingly enough, we actually think that Provectin might actually have limited results for the eye area because of its inclusion of Dermaxyl, but would keep expectations low.
