KEY INGREDIENTS:
-
24K Gold - 24k Gold helps your skin retain and absorb the other ingredients in the product. Gold has been shown to specifically promote collagen III. Collagen III is found in fast growing tissues, especially in early stages of wound repair. It is typically replaced later by type I collagen which is the most common type of collagen found in our bodies.
-
Hyaluronic Acid - The evidence suggests that hyaluronic acid helps with soft tissue growth, prompts your body to make more collagen and elastin, keeps your skin moisturized, prevents tightness, boosts elasticity, and reduces scarring.
-
Hydrolyzed Placenta Extract - Placental extracts are shown to enhance the proliferation of fibroblasts and cord blood cells in vitro. The mechanism of action of placental extracts in wound healing is associated with the increase of TGF-β (transforming growth factor-beta) in the early phase of regeneration.
