Regenerating intensive cream against stretch marks Collagen and Lipid renewal

Active ingredients

Regestril, Stretch Stop, squalane, niacinamide, Skin Matrix, collagen and elastin

DESCRIPTION:

Regestril™ – a novel combination of rutin, bean extract and two matrilines (polypeptides) that accelerate fibronectin and collagen synthesis in the intercellular matrix. It counteracts the destructive action of proteolytic enzymes on elastic fibres and delays the effects of ageing. Smoothes wrinkles, restores elastic contour, lifts and firms. Stimulates the synthesis of collagen support fibres and inhibits their degradation. Prevents and reduces stretch marks on the skin by slowing down degradation and promoting regeneration of the extracellular matrix. Inhibits the action of proteolytic enzymes that destroy elastic fibres. After 2 months of use, stretch marks fade and skin becomes smoother. In vitro tests confirm a 72% reduction in the depth of stretch marks.

Stretch-Stop – reduces the visibility of white and red stretch marks, regardless of their origin. At the same time, it strengthens skin firmness and elasticity. Visible results in just 28 days. The complex combines two plants used in traditional Chinese medicine to improve Qi, or ‘vital energy flow’. Membranaceous astragalus (Astragalus membranaceus) is one of the fifty essential herbs in Chinese medicine. It is an adaptogen that protects the body from stress. Astragalus is credited with wound healing abilities due to the presence of saponins and polysaccharides, which reduce inflammatory reactions. Bellflower (Codonopsis pilosula) is an herb commonly used in China for its anti-ageing properties. It associates these properties with improving the immune system, eliminating free radicals and preventing lipoperoxidation.

Squalane – is a biocompatible emollient extracted from Brazilian sugar cane. It is a natural component of the skin’s lipid barrier and is therefore ideal for replenishing epidermal lipid deficiencies. It has the ability to penetrate deep into the skin and therefore helps to deliver active ingredients to the skin. It improves the water balance in the skin, has remarkable moisturising properties and prevents moisture loss from the cells. In addition, it is excellent at softening and smoothing the skin, leaving it silky smooth and free of a sticky film. Clinical studies conducted with 40 women (age range: 37-60 years) have shown that it is non-comedogenic, improves skin firmness and elasticity, and levels stretch marks and evens out skin tone.

Niacinamide – a form of vitamin B₃ (amide derivative) with the characteristics of a powerful antioxidant – has an effective and broad rejuvenating effect. Indicated as an alternative to retinol. It is a precursor of the molecule of youth – NAD+ necessary for the production of cellular energy and proper mitochondrial function. It is not photosensitising and can be used all year round. It regenerates the skin barrier by stimulating the differentiation of keratinocytes, increases skin hydration and elasticity. Stimulates collagen production and reduces wrinkles. Improves microcirculation, has a soothing effect and reduces symptoms of irritation. Normalises the exfoliation of the epidermis, regulates sebum production, lightens discolouration and evens skin tone.

Skin Matrix from Baikal Thyroid – an active substance obtained from the roots of Baikal Thyroid (Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi). It contains the flavonoid baicalin, which is responsible for the cellular reactivation of the skin by prolonging the active life of fibroblasts and delaying the ageing process. The results clearly confirm that Skin Matrix increases the elasticity and firmness of the skin, thus maintaining the properties typical of young skin – maximum elasticity and the ability to quickly regain shape. The use of Skin Matrix maintains the appearance and quality of young skin by improving its biomechanical indicators. An example of the effect of Skin Matrix on the skin of a 50-year-old person is the rejuvenation of the fibroblast population of her skin to a condition comparable to skin that is a decade younger (in this case 40 years).

Collagen and elastin are the primary connective tissue proteins of the skin. Collagen maintains the skin’s moisture content, elastin gives the skin its elasticity and resilience. During the skin ageing process, water-soluble collagen is converted into cross-linked collagen, which is insoluble in water and lacks the ability to bind water. As part of this process, the skin stops producing elastin – the skin loses its elasticity and becomes dry. This active ingredient is recommended for dry, damaged, mature skin exposed to prolonged sunbathing. Collagen and elastin are used in skin care cosmetics with a regenerating and rejuvenating effect, restoring freshness, smoothness and elasticity to the skin. Dissolvable collagen on the skin surface forms a thin layer – a film that protects against environmental influences, prevents excessive water loss and gives the skin a velvety feel. In after-sun skin care cosmetics, collagen acts as a soothing agent – enhancing the granulation process and wound healing.
