PROBIOLIFT™ is a probiotherapy cosmetic ingredient made of millions of live but dormant Lactobacillus crispatus bacteria, which are naturally found on the skin.

When activated by water on the skin, PROBIOLIFT™ increases dermal density, improves the appearance of forehead wrinkles, and protects skin from oxidative stress. Unlike other biotics on the cosmetic market, PROBIOLIFT™ uses a bacterium that is naturally present on the skin. PROBIOLIFT™ is perfectly complemented by Postbiolift, which is derived from the same biofermentation process.

Collrepair® DG helps support the skin’s natural process of regaining flexibility to enable a youthful, fresh tone.
