Anti-aging Proprietary Peptides in Skincare

The anti-aging power of proprietary peptides

Aging starts beneath the skin surface within the extracellular matrix (ECM).1 This skin structure is constantly in flux and involved in age-related skin changes, wound healing, and communication between skin cells.2,3 Just like wounds that need repair, aging skin needs a healthy ECM to support a youthful appearance.

In our research, NEOCUTIS scientists set out to address the key components of the ECM that impact the appearance of skin as it ages: collagen (especially types I, II, and VII), elastin, and hyaluronic acid. Using decades of collective expertise, our researchers developed a collection of peptides (specialized proteins) that help support these building blocks of skin.

Addresses the visible signs of aging

Unretouched photos of actual study subject. Results based on a study of 39 subjects who applied BIO CREAM twice daily for six months. Results may vary.

Works deeper

Boosts 3 types of collagen:

⇑ 180% – Collagen I: course fiber allows skin to stretch without breaking

⇑ 120% – Collagen III: finer fiber helps strengthen skin

⇑ 97% – Collagen VII: connects the dermis to the epidermis (outer to inner layers of skin)

Enhances elastin: ⇑ 161%

Supports hyaluronic acid production: ⇑ 64%

These results reflect the maximum effects of proprietary peptides obtained from in vitro testing.4
