As a true anti-wrinkle product, Elastine Serum reduces wrinkles and fine lines and prevents them from forming. The core of its formula contains the same sequence of amino acids as the longest repetitive fragment of elastin, the protein responsible for skin elasticity. Its “spring structure” enables it to restructure, repair and maintain the integrity of skin tissues. The synergistic effect of its active ingredients increases the level of elastin in the dermis so that the skin regains all its elasticity. The skin is visibly smoother and tighter.
The Elastine serum is a true anti-wrinkle product that stimulates synthesis of elastin, the protein responsible for skin tissue elasticity, to fight established wrinkles and fine lines.
Apply a few drops of serum every morning and/or evening to a cleaned skin, on the entire face, neck and décolleté. Gently massage using ascending movements until product is completely absorbed.
Marine exopolysaccharide from the Iroise Sea: This active ingredient is secreted by a planktonic microorganism found in the Iroise Sea. It stimulates collagen and elastin synthesis to improve skin’s firmness and elasticity. It also has a tightening effect on the network of collagen fibers for an immediate, long-lasting lifting effect (starting after 15 minutes). Skin is smoother and wrinkles are filled.
Hyaluronic acid (low molecular weight): Hyaluronic acid plays an essential role in supporting the skin’s structure and texture. It works as a veritable “molecular sponge,” absorbing up to one thousand times its own weight in water. With a low molecular weight (10 kDa), it improves the extracellular matrix to preserve optimal hydration in the epidermis. It also fights wrinkles by activating collagen synthesis to reduce the size and depth of wrinkles and fine lines. In addition, it stimulates neosynthesis of hyaluronic acid, promoting desquamation and reducing the size of pores to soften skin texture. This truly makes the skin’s surface smoother.
Elastin fragment: This active ingredient is a hexapeptide made by sequencing elastin. It is a “spring fragment”, the longest and most repeated in the elastin molecule. It is composed of the same sequence of amino acids as elastin. It stimulates fibroblasts to strengthen the support tissues, thereby enhancing skin elasticity and providing a true anti-wrinkle effect. It also helps maintain the skin’s resistance and integrity due to its chemotactic activity, which helps restructure and repair tissues. Wrinkles are plumped up and the face becomes smoother.
Complex of matrikines: Matrikines are small peptides naturally present in the skin, derived from skin repair processes. These cellular messengers are capable of regulating the sequence of events necessary for the healing process. With age, the proteins used in the constitution, attachment and cohesion of the dermis and dermo-epidermal junction diminish significantly. This complex helps stimulate the synthesis of these proteins to recreate conditions conducive to cellular and matrix renewal. This active ingredient repairs skin damage caused by age via two complementary approaches: by protecting the papillary dermis against photo-aging and by combating chronological aging. It contributes to reversing the chronological aging process by reducing the depth and surface area of wrinkles, reducing skin roughness and folds, reducing the amount of progerin (aging molecule) and increasing skin firmness and elasticity.
