As we age, our skin undergoes numerous changes. In the epidermis, the skin barrier function declines, which leads to a reduced ability to protect the skin and body against external aggressors, such as such as UV radiation or pollution, and to maintain skin hydration. In the dermis, the production of collagen and elastin declines, which, together with continuous gravity, results in sagging skin that can be observed at the face contours of the jawline or on sagging breasts.
Exosomes are vesicles that are released from cells to enable cell-cell communication. Mesenchymal stem cells can improve collagen production and regenerate the skin by exosome-based communication with fibroblasts. Interestingly, plant-derived exosomes can also be taken up by and communicate with human cells, providing various health benefits and great potential for cosmetics.
PhytoCellTec™ Exosomes
- contains plant-derived exosomes that directly act on the epidermis to strengthen the skin barrier
- Increases the release of exosomes by mesenchymal stem cells inside the skin, which, in turn, improves Extracellular matrix production in the dermis
With its dual function based on exosomes, PhytoCellTec™ Exosomes acts on both the epidermis and dermis:
- It protects the skin from external stressors
- and rejuvenates it by improving skin density and elasticity, reducing wrinkles, and reshaping the face and breasts
PhytoCellTec™ Exosomes
- Doubles the exosomal power
- Increases collagen and elastin expression
- Improves skin density
- Minimizes fine wrinkles and deeper lines
- Tightens facial contours
Applications
- Tightening and contouring serums for the face and neck
- Collagen boosting formulations
- Contouring masks
- Lifting and firming anti-aging formulas
- Breast lifting treatments
