Anti-Aging Effects of Low Molecular Weight Collagen Peptides Supplementation on Facial Wrinkles and Skin Hydration: Outcomes from a  Six-Week Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo- Controlled Trial

Anti-Aging Effects of Low Molecular Weight Collagen Peptides Supplementation on Facial Wrinkles and Skin Hydration: Outcomes from a Six-Week Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo- Controlled Trial

Research Summary: In recent decades, there has been a rising demand for anti-aging interventions aimed at postponing or potentially reversing indicators of skin aging. The use of collagen-based nutraceutical supplements has gained popularity as they have shown promise in enhancing skin health and reducing signs of aging. The aim of this randomized, placebo-controlled, blinded study was to investigate the effects of 2.5 g COLLinstant® LMW, a novel cosmeceutical containing low molecular weight (≤ 1000 Da) collagen peptides, on skin aging and health. The trial was conducted in 80 healthy women aged 30 years and older. They received a daily oral...

Artocarpus heterophyllus leaves extract improve facial skin in clay mask formulation

Research Summary:Artocarpus heterophyllus (A. heterophyllus) is one of the plants commonly used for skin care. This study aimed to formulate a clay mask preparation with the active ingredient  A. heterophyllus 3% leaf extract and evaluate its activities in repairing facial moisture, smoothness, large pores, blemishes, and wrinkles. The process of preparing the clay masks began with the extraction of Artocarpus heterophyllus leaf ethanol extracts, ensuring standardized quality. This was followed by the preparation of clay mask bases with guaranteed quality, mixing the clay mask bases with the extracts, and testing the quality, stability, and effectiveness of the skin care product....

Skin ageing and its treatment

Skin ageing and its treatment

Research Summary: The effects of chronic sun exposure on skin are readily apparent when skin not typically exposed to the sun and skin regularly exposed to the sun are compared. While the sun is not the only aetiological factor in the dynamic process of skin ageing, it is the primary exogenous cause among several internal and environmental elements. Thus, photo-ageing, the main focus of this article, is a subset of extrinsic skin ageing.The influence of the sun in extrinsic skin ageing, as well as its role in potentially altering the normal course of intrinsic (also known as natural or cellular)...

Retinoids in the treatment of skin aging: an overview of clinical efficacy and safety

Retinoids in the treatment of skin aging: an overview of clinical efficacy and safety

Research Summary:Aging of skin is an intricate biological process consisting of two types. While intrinsic or chronological aging is an inevitable process, photoaging involves the premature aging of skin occurring due to cumulative exposure to ultraviolet radiation. Chronological and photoaging both have clinically differentiable manifestations. Various natural and synthetic retinoids have been explored for the treatment of aging, and many of them have shown histological and clinical improvement. However, most of the studies have been carried out in patients presenting with photoaged skin. Among the retinoids, tretinoin is possibly the most potent and certainly the most widely investigated retinoid for...
