Bio-mimetic peptides are small proteins consisting of several amino acids normally attached to a carrier molecule in order to improve skin penetration and bioavailability.
These ingredients are used as active ingredients in cosmetic products due to the progress made in the field of biotechnology.
When these peptides reach the tissue they take part in the communication between cells and may generate specific biochemical signals for processes such as collagen production and tissue repair.
The bio mimetic peptides use in the New collagen series are:
MatrixylTM ( palmitoyl pentapeptide-4 ). This peptide boosts the synthesis of collagen type I collagen type IV and ground substance components (glycosaminoglycans).
As demonstrated in tissue cultures, skin biopsies and in clinical tests, this peptide restores the structure of the skin, increases the thickness of the skin, and minimizes wrinkles.
DERMAXYLTM (Palmitoyl Oligopeptide/palmitoyl hexapeptide 12) – Dermaxyl is composed of a combination of a bio-mimetic peptide and ceramide. It boosts the synthesis of the dermal matrix components and supports the barrier function of the skin. A clinical trial with this ingredient showde considerable improvement in wrinkles depth, volume and density.
These peptides together with other active ingredients make this series a first-class modern anti-aging series.
