Pro-Xylane
Pro-Xylane is a kind of highly effective anti-aging ingredients made from natural plant essences combined with biomedical achievements. Experiments have found that Pro-Xylane can effectively activate the synthesis of GAGs, promote the production of hyaluronic acid, synthesis of collagen, adhesion between the dermis and the epidermis, the synthesis of epidermal structural components as well as the regeneration of damaged tissue, and maintain skin elasticity. Several in vitro tests have shown that Pro-Xylane can increase mucopolysaccharide(GAGs) synthesis by up to 400%. Mucopolysaccharides(GAGs) have various biological featuress in the epidermis and dermis, including filling extracellular space, retaining water, promoting the remodeling of the dermal layer structure, improving skin fullness and elasticity so as to smooth wrinkles, hide pores, diminish pigmentation spots, comprehensively improve the skin and achieve a photon skin rejuvenation effect.
