Anti-wrinkles

[Ria] + [Rib] + [Ric]

  • Presentation

    Stimulates the synthesis of skin’s components to reinforce its elasticity and thus reduce the size and depth of wrinkles.

  • Mechanisms of action

    ➔ Amélioration la régénération de lʼépiderme en favorisant la producƟon et la différenciation des cellules

    ➔ Renforcement de la densité du derme par :

    • Protection des cellules souches dermiques pour garantir leur activité de régénération du derme.
    • Rajeunissement des fibroblastes
    • Stimulation de la synthèse des éléments constitutifs de la matrice extra-cellulaire :élastine, collagène, GAGs (dont l'acide hyaluronique)
     

    ➔ Ralentissement des processus de destruction des éléments constitutifs de la matrice extra-cellulaire en inhibant les enzymes responsables.

    Résultats : les rides sont réduites, la peau est lissée.

    With age, the cellular metabolism slows down. Cells gradually lose their capacity to renew the key building blocks that preserve the skin’s mechanical and structural integrity. This upsets the balance between the synthesis and deterioration of these building blocks, which include collagen and elastin. With the passage of the years, the rate of their deterioration increases, and the skin’s structure creases and is unable to return to its normal state. This is how fine lines turn into wrinkles, growing deeper and lastingly marking the skin. To fight wrinkles, both collagen and elastin synthesis needs to be stepped up, and the mechanisms capable of protecting and reactivating these processes must be maintained. In this way, both the cutaneous structure is reinforced and the skin’s firmness and elasticity improved. Result: more supple skin with fewer wrinkles – for many years to come.
