Tripeptide-10 citrulline is a new combination of active ingredient developed to slow down skin aging due to glycation of proteins.The Lys coating of the delivery system has the double role of inhibiting the maillard reaction and binding the liposomes to the skin,thus helping to release the active peptide providing elasticity and suppleness.
Tripeptide-10 citrulline is an integral treatment for all ages which contributes to maintaining youthful collagen. The skin is restructured and strengthened and looks younger and smoother: wrinkle depth reduced by 29% in one month.
Science has proven that peptides can help manage wrinkles in your skin and reverse the signs of aging.Human skin is comprised mostly of collagen. Collagen is a protein comprised of long segments of amino acids arranged like a chain. Collagen provides a foundation and thickness for skin.
Women under 30 have ample collagen, which results in smooth, tight skin.The rest of us have less collagen - skin tends to be thinner, revealing more wrinkles.When collagen breaks down, short segments of amino acids are formed. These are the tiny proteins and active molecules known as peptides. Peptides in skin care can provide significant anti-aging benefits.
