Age-Defying Essentials Clinical Skincare
Matrixyl Synthe'6
Strengthens Skin Tissue
Matrixyl Synthe'6 (Palmitoyl Tripeptide-38) anti-aging peptide affects 6 major constituents of the skin (collagen I, III, Iv, fibronectin, hyaluronic acid and laminin 5). Matrixyl Synthe'6 rebuilds the skin network by increasing three kinds of collagen I, III, IV providing a rejuvenating effect to significantly reduce wrinkle severity. In addition, Matrixyl synthe'6 stimulates hyaluronic acid and laminin 5 which replicates a filler effect and fibroncectin increases skin elasticity to restore volume.
Platinum Matri-xem
Targets Cells Increasing Skin Elasticity
Platinum Matri-xem (Acetyl Tetrapeptide-17 Colloidal Platinum) has a remarkable effect on collagen synthesis. Platinum Matri-xem peptide is particular effective because of biological activity for cell targeting. In vivo test for 30 days at .3% showed significant improvement on skin elasticity 47%, hydration 33%, reduction of wrinkles by 61%.
Renovage
Increases Cell Life By 1/3
Renovage (Teprenone) stabilizes telomere shortening increasing cell life by 1/3. Telomeres are the cell's biological clock regulating how fast we age. They are found in both the epidermis and dermis and shorten every time the cell divides. And if slowing down our cells' biological clock wasn't enough, Renovage™ firms, hydrates, plumps, reduces wrinkles, sun spots, redness and pore size.
SYN-COLL
Stimulates Collagen 1 Production
SYN-COLL (Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5) is an innovative anti-wrinkle approach that stimulates the boosting of collagen 1 production in human fibroblasts for skin-firming and moisturizing properties, as well as collagen protection from degrading enzymes by expression inhibition of MMP's and cytokines. Both activities work to achieve a maximum anti-wrinkle effect.
Inyline
Reduces Fine Lines - Wrinkles
Inyline (Hexapeptide-30 and Arginine) target the agrin/MuSK post-synaptic pathway blocking the mechanism of MuSK (Muscle-Specific Kinase) to minimize muscle contraction. By blocking these neurotransmitters, the formation of fine lines and wrinkles is reduced and prevented. When repetitive movements are impaired a collaborative effect is achieved - reduced depth of wrinkles and younger looking skin.
Eyeseryl
Anti-Eye Bag and Dark Circle Activity
Eyeseryl (Acetyl Tetrapeptide-5) anti-eye bag and anti-dark circle activity, with a draining and decongesting effect enhancing skin elasticity and skin smoothness. A group of 17 volunteers, aged 34 to 54 applied a cream containing 1% Eyeseryl twice a day under the eye area for 28 days. Eye bags were reduced in 70% of the volunteers and a decrease of dark cirles under the eyes significantly increased showing a slight lightening effect.
Neuropeptides - Peptides - Cell-Renewal Ingredients
Argireline and Leuphasyl
Reduces Depth Of Lines and Wrinkles
Argireline (Acetyl-Hexapeptide-8) deters the degeneration of collagen and elastin, smoothes the skin and reduces the depth of lines and wrinkles. Argireline delivers superior anti-wrinkle results formulated to relax facial wrinkles, reduce the degree of existing wrinkles, and stop their future development.
Leuphasyl (Pentapeptide-18) reduces the depth of wrinkles caused by the contraction of muscles of facial expression, decreasing neuron excitability and modulating acetylcholine secretion. Since neurons move the muscles by delivering acetylcholine into the muscle cells, Leuphasyl's ability to moderate the electrical charge being sent to the applied area is crucial in lessening and relaxing muscle contraction.
Serilesine
Increases Skin Compactness
Serilesine (Hexapeptide-10) is a skin firming active that promotes a double-cellular activity on both keratinocytes and fibroblasts resulting in significant increase in skin brighteness and smoothness. Serilesine® increases the synthesis of laminin-5, α6-integrin and hemidesmosomes thus strengthening the dermal-epidermal junction resulting in increased dermis density and skin compactness.
SYN-AKE
Immediate Visible Line Smoothing
SYN-AKE (Dipeptide Diaminobutyroyl Benzylamide Diacetate) is a neuropeptide that reduces the contraction frequency of muscle cells on the face, thereby decreasing expression lines. It prevents the fixation of acetylcholine-the 'contraction messenger' for facial muscles that calms the muscle contractions that would increase wrinkling.
Perfluorodecalin
Delivers Pure Oxygen and Moisture
Perfluorodecalin super oxygenated molecule is combined with spun liquid crystal technology to deliver pure oxygen and moisture. The benefits are superior hydration and rapid wound healing. In clinical studies, one application shows an increase in moisture for up to 7 days optimizing the oxygen environment allowing cells to function and replicate. The partial pressure of oxygen (pO2 ) in the skin increases dramatically after 28 days of treatment with formulations containing Perfluorodecalin.
Retinol
Renews Skin Cells - Improves Skin Texture
Retinol activates the renewal of skin cells to strengthen the bond between the epidermis and dermis to reduce the degree of existing wrinkles and stop their future development. Results come from cellular changes deep in the skin to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin texture, and lighten hyper-pigmentation.
Our Products Are FREE Of The Following Ingredients - Made In USA and GMP Approved
Methyl, Propyl, Butyl and Ethyl Parabens
Parabens are used as inhibitors of microbial growth to extend the shelf life of products. Studies have shown that parabens are absorbed through the skin and have caused many allergic reactions and skin rashes. Parabens are still widely used even though they are known to be toxic.
Sodium Lauryl/Laureth Sulfate
Sodium Lauryl and Laureth Sulfate are harsh detergents used for their cleansing and foam-building properties. It causes eye irritation, scalp scurf similar to dandruff, skin rashes and other allergic reactions.
Petrolatum
Petrolatum also known as petroleum jelly, is a mineral oil derivative used for its emollient properties in cosmetics. It has no nutrient value for the skin and can interfere with the body's own natural moisturizing mechanism, leading to dryness and chapping. It often creates the very conditions it claims to alleviate.
Propylene Glycol
Propylene Glycol is a synthetic petrochemical mix of vegetable glycerin and alcohol used as a humectant in cosmetic products. Propylene Glycol has been known to cause allergic reactions, hives and eczema.
PVP/VA Copolymer
PVP/VA Copolymer is a petroleum-derived chemical used in cosmetics. PVP/VA Copolymer can be considered toxic, since inhaled particles can damage the lungs.
Synthetic Colors
Synthetic Colors are used to make cosmetics "pretty" and should be avoided at all costs. They will be labeled as FD&C or D&C, followed by a color and a number. Many synthetic colors can be carcinogenic. If a cosmetic contains them, don't use it.
