INGREDIENT GLOSSARY

Matrixyl® belongs more to the second category: it is not a "trendy" name in the strict sense, but one of those active ingredients that often come up when discussing well-formulated anti-aging skincare.

Elastin, an essential protein in connective tissues, plays a crucial role in maintaining the elasticity and resilience of the skin. With age, its production decreases, leading to loss of tone, wrinkles, and skin sagging. Hydrolyzed elastin, thanks to its bioavailability, is an innovative solution that improves hydration, elasticity, and skin regeneration. Versillin™, a biomimetic peptide derived from versican, represents a further advancement, stimulating elastin synthesis (+106%) and increasing skin density (+32%), with clinically proven results. This article explores the benefits of these ingredients in modern cosmetics, offering new perspectives for the treatment of skin aging.
