Focus on Wrinkle Formation Part 2
Hyaluronic Filling Spheres™ provide an exclusive technology based on the use of hygroscopic material to make a sphere. These spheres are dehydrated at first, and fill up with water within the skin. This hydration process causes a change in volume proportional to the sphere's moisture-retaining capacity. This physical change in volume allows for rapid filling results which produce a noticeable smoothing of deep wrinkles which with continued use are just as effective as the components used in injections. -
Focus on Wrinkle Formation Part 1
Facial expressions tend to be the leading cause of first wrinkles, each time a person uses a facial muscle to create an expression such a smiling, squinting or frowning a groove starts to form in the dermis. -
Focus on Plant Stem Cells for Skin Stem Cell Protection
Skin Stem Cells and Aging
Skin stem cells have a limited life expectancy, intrinsic and extrinsic stress factors affect their functionality. With age, skin stem cells are less active and lower in number, this explains why the depletion of skin stem cells is regarded as the primary cause of skin aging. -
Focus on Skin Metabolism
Skin metabolism refers to the cellular communication process that takes place between the epidermal and dermal skin cells, this cell communication plays a vital role in the skins ability to produce collagen, regulate skin cell turnover rate and to help partially repair UV and environmental damage. Skin metabolism progressively declines with age, to help speed up skin’s metabolic rate and thus enhance all the functions it controls it is essential to apply active ingredients that trigger biological pathways and stimulate cell turnover, boosting the skins intrinsic metabolic rate to improve skins cellular renewal, collagen production, product absorption, and damage control. -
Focus on reducing intrinsic skin cell ageing with N-Acetyl Glucosamine
N-Acetyl Glucosamine is a natural exfoliating regulator and scavenger of free radicals that improves skin smoothness and brightens an uneven complexion, especially when combined with Niacinamide.
