Anti-aging
Many people consider preventing skin aging one of their most essential needs. Over the years, the cosmetic industry has strengthened this wish with new formulations and active ingredients. Consumers highly appreciate good looks and well-being.
Active anti-aging ingredients are participating in both directions. The tests on human volunteers demonstrated the positive influence of many modern ingredients and complexes against skin aging.
The active support of energy control in the cells and the prevention of DNA damage are essential steps to counteract the process of accelerated aging, often induced by UV light. The specific combinations of anti-aging ingredients and complexes do even more.
Strong regenerative effects, like stimulating collagen, support the consumer's need for well-being, resulting in improved skin elasticity and wrinkle reduction. The more consumers learn from the concepts and claims of cosmetic products containing anti-aging ingredients, the higher their expectations are. This section fulfills the increasing requirements of quickly learning consumers.Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7 (also known as Rigin™) is a lipopeptide from Sederma designed to mimic DHEA activity and restore cytokine balance to mature skin.

Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-95 is a synthetic matrikine lipopeptide that modulates skin repair processes.
Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1 stimulates fibroblasts and enhances the production of collagen and GAGs, smoothing fine lines and deep wrinkles and improving the water-binding ability and elasticity of the skin.
Palmitoyl tripeptide-28 is a peptide ingredient based on TGF-β (Transforming growth factor beta) that mimics cytokine action by binding with specific receptors (TGF beta receptor 2) on fibroblast membrane, stimulating the production of extracell
Palmitoyl Tripeptide-37 is a synthetic lipo-peptide with sequence Pal-KFK (Palmitoyl-Lys-Phe-Lys) that leaves thrombospondin-like action. It is an analog of Lipospondin.
Palmitoyl Tripeptide-38 also known as Pal-KMO2K is a matrikine-mimetic peptide, that stimulates hyaluronic acid and collagen production.
Panthenol is a provitamin of Pantothenic acid (vitamin B5), part of the B-complex group, is present in all living cells and is a constituent of coenzyme A. The critical function of this coenzyme is to act as a carrier in acetylation reactions (Krebs cycle).
A symbol of beauty worn by royalty for thousands of years, the pearl is a traditional symbol of luxury and opulence. In Asia, pearl is used for more than ornamentation and decoration; it is a conventional medicine used for cosmetics.
Pelvetia Canaliculata Extract is a seaweed extract in which two cytokinins have been identified (Indole-3 acetic acid and benzylaminopurine). Those cytokinins are vegetable growth hormones.
Pentapeptide-3 is a synthetic peptide with the sequence Gly-Pro-Arg-Pro-Ala-NH2 known under the trade name Vialox peptide.
Coenzyme Q10 is present in dermal cells, where it stimulates ATP (cellular energy molecules) production and protects from oxidative damage (free radicals).
Pentapeptide-4 (formerly Pentapeptide-3) is a synthetic peptide with the sequence KTTKS (Lys-Thr-Thr-Lys-Ser-OH), a fragment of pro-collagen I. It is known under the trade name Micro-Collagen™ (Sederma S.A.; 99820559).
Pentapeptide-48 is a synthetic peptide with the sequence Thr-Arg-Ser-Glu-Leu that repeats the active part of the Royalactin protein.
Pentapeptide-59 is a synthetic peptide derived from a part of a sequence (Arg-Arg-Arg-Phe-Val) of sea anemone (Heteractis Crispa) venom protein called APHC1.
It has been well documented that extracts from yeast fermentation, particularly Saccharomyces cerevisiae, have demonstrated wound-healing properties.
Persea Gratissima Oil Unsaponifiables is the fraction of avocado oil that is not saponified in the refining recovery of avocado oil fatty acids. It contains about 30% of phytosterols, mainly Sitosterol, Campesterol, and Stigmasterol.
Persea Gratissima Sterols are active lipid phytosterols from avocados that lessen the inflammatory effects of UV damage to the skin. This indicates that this natural ingredient may help prevent premature skin aging due to UV radiation.
Matrikines are skin messenger peptides that instruct skin cells to reorganize and re-assemble the extracellular matrix. There are a lot of synthetic matricaines usually in the form of lipo-peptides have been used in cosmetics.
PhytosteCol is a complex of encapsulated phytosterol and vitamin C to improve skin barrier function.
Plantago Lanceolata Leaf Extract is a clear orange to brown liquid, a natural ingredient called “The Lance Against Skin Damage,” as it reduces signs of aging due to its antioxidant properties.
Platinum MatrixEM is a synthetic peptide based on TGF (Transforming growth factor) nano-conjugated to platinum particles.
For years, aging induced by sun exposure was called photoaging, attributed only to the UV spectrum of light. However, infrared rays and their heating bring a loss of elasticity and firmness, leading to the appearance of premature wrinkles.
Porphyra Umbilicalis Extract is obtained from red alga and contains isolated mycosporine-like amino acids which are a natural defense component against UVA radiation.
Preventhelia® is a tetrapeptide that fights the detrimental effects of UV radiation on human skin, protecting and repairing DNA, thus preventing premature aging.
Progeline™ (Trifluoroacetyl Tripeptide-2; sequence: TFA-Val-Try-Val-OH) is a biomimetic peptide-based complex ingredient that mimics a specific protein, Elafin, responsible for the inhibition of the Elastase enzyme that breaks down elastin.
Prolyl Hydroxyproline is a biologically active matrikine dipeptide with the sequence Pro-Hyp found in collagen hydrolysates.
