THE Ageing PROCESS of the Skin STARTS AROUND THE AGE OF 25.

The visible cause of skin ageing is THE SLOWING DOWN OF THE REPRODUCTIONS OF  FIBROBLAST CELLS and the basal stem cells

Ageing fibroblast cells produce less Collagen and elastin RESULTING IN the skin losing its firmness and elasticity.

THE AGEING basal stem cells produce less keratinocytes and makes the skin dull

WHAT IS A FIBROBLAST?

The dermis which is the middle layer of the skin, has the dominant cell type namely fibroblasts.

The fibroblast cells produce proteins called collagen and elastin and are the main components of the intercellular matrix of the skin and are fundamentally responsible for the elasticity and firmness of the skin.

As fibroblast cells age, they first slow down and then stop producing collagen and elastin.

THE REPRODUCTION OF FIBROBLASTS IS KEY TO ANTI-AGEING!

THE SECRET IS IN STEM CELLS

Stem cells have major importance in the life of all human tissues, and they have a key role in achieving a younger looking skin.

In the stratum basale, new cells are continuously produced in the epidermis on a large scale due to the basal stem cells which are in the lowest layer of the skin.

As we age, the production of these cells slows down, causing the top layer of the skin to become thin and cause the skin to wrinkle.

In the dermis, the middle layer of the skin, most stem cells are located near the hair follicles, which makes them accessible by active cosmetic ingredient through these follicles.

Swiss scientists have been looking for active ingredients that can stimulate stem cells in the epidermis and in the hair follicles to increase cell production.

Researchers have found that plant stem cells have a high proportion of ingredients (salts, phenols, acids, sugars, proteins) that can also strengthen and protect skin’s stem cells.

Plant stem cells have a major role in the metabolism of the life cycle of plants during the growth process and in the regeneration in the wound healing process.

During the 56-day in vivo trial the product was tested by 22 women who used it twice a day. The results revealed that the skin tightness was increased by 11% after 56 days.

PROVEN EFFECTIVENESS OF PLANT STEM CELL Extracts

The active ingredients stimulates the basal cells to increase cell production, thus increasing the thickness of the epidermis, which helps to smooth out wrinkles.
