Face Lift
Description
Loss of firmness, elasticity and smoothness is due to the breakdown of the collagen matrix and hyaluronic acid complexes in the dermis. rejuvaDERM Face Lift – Anti Wrinkle solution is a highly effective skin concentrate that has a firming and lifting effect to the skin tissue, with excellent anti-wrinkle properties. rejuvaDERM Face Lift stimulates tissue regeneration by way of collagen matrix build up. Couple this with the latest 24 hour moisturizing technology and you have a powerful formula to assist in the correction of loss of elasticity. It also contains powerful bleaching elements to hyper-pigmented areas and restores normal dermal clarity.
Direction for Use
After cleansing the skin, place a small amount in the palm of your hand, emulsify lightly and press into your face and neck area (avoiding the delicate eye area). Can be used in the evening and also in the morning.
Ingredients
| D-alpha Tocopherol Acetate | Vitamin E | Moisturising and anti-oxidant properties. |
|---|---|---|
| Palmitoyl Oligopeptide | Contains matrikines that are messengers of cutaneous restructuration and repair. They activate the neosynthesis of extracellular matrix macromolecules providing a visible anti-wrinkle efficacy. | |
| Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-3 | ||
| Palmitoyl-Tetrapeptide-7 | The inflammatory reaction begins before stretch marks are visible and continues as they appear on the skin from a pink colour fading to white. This prevents and reduces stretch marks by slowing down the degradation and by promoting regeneration of the extracellular matrix. | |
| Rutin | ||
| Phaseolus Lunatus (Green Bean) Extract | ||
| Bearberry (Arctostaphylos Uva Ursi) Extract | Is an active ingredient designed for the treatment of pigmentary spots and cutaneous discolouration problems. Its activity based on African ethnobotanical experience is confirmed by a strong tyrosinase inhibitory activity in vitro and ex vivo. | |
| Mitracarpus Scaber Extract | ||
| Imperata Cylindrica (Root Extract) | Imperata cylindrica provides the skin with considerable hydration. Potassium and DMSP help cells maintain their osmotic equilibrium. The synergistic effect has been exploited to produce a high, immediate and long-lasting moisturizing effect. | |
| Centella asiatica extract | Gotu Kola | To aid wound healing, stimulate the production of type 1 collagen and results in a marked decrease in inflammatory reaction and myofibroblast production. |
| Siegesbeckia orientalis extract | The active constituent has a crystalline structure akin to that of aspirin (salicylic acid) and is responsible for its sedative and Soothing action. | |
| Undaria & Pinnatifida extract | Maintains skin firmness, elasticity and smoothness, supports skin regeneration, defends against environmental stress. | |
| PH Levels: 5.5 – 6.0 | ||
| Size: 40 ml |
What does Matrixyl do?
Matrixyl was discovered through two branches of dermatological research: the search for substances that accelerate healing skin wounds and the study of what causes wrinkles. Similarly to copper peptides, Matrixyl stimulates the lower layers of the skin to heal themselves, thus accelerating the healing of wounds. Cells called fibroblasts are responsible for knitting together wounds of the skin. As you may know, as one ages wounds take longer to heal. This is partially because fibroblasts slowly lose the capacity for collagen production.
Matrixyl stimulates the “matrix” layers in the skin – primarily collagen and fibronectin. When stimulated, the skin produces more collagen. Loss of collagen is what leads to thinning skin and the wrinkling of newly inelastic skin. Matrixyl helps to counteract this natural part of the ageing process.
Clinical Data
Matrixyl 3000
Synthesis of matrix macromolecules: Study of the stimulation of synthesis of extracelular matrix components by fibroblasts incubated for 72 hours with MATRIXYL®3000 (1,3,5%)
|
Stimulation of gene expression: Study of the regulation of dermal and epidermal genes by matrikines from MATRIXYL®3000 using DNA-Array technique on reconstructed epidermis and on Fibroblast culture. Matrikines from MATRIXYL®3000 show a complementary gene activation profile with respect to the major mechanisms involved in cutaneous restructuration.
|
| Effect on skin tone and elasticity: 2 groups of 23 volunteers aged between 39 and 74 years / twice daily application to one half of the face a cream containing 3% of MATRIXYL® 3000 or 3% of MATRIXYL against placebo, for 2 months. Assessment of elasticity and tone by cutometry on the same group as above. With MATGRIXYL®3000, skin tone and elasticity displayed a major and significant improvement. |
