- Product Highlights
Peptides are the newest ingredients in anti-aging skin care that are highly effective actives and are utilized in the most premium skin care products.
Olepent® has a dual mechanism both as a firming and repairing peptide.Firming Peptide
- Helps to improve skin elasticity
- Reduces the appearance of wrinkles
- Minimizes the effect of degrading enzymes
Repairing Peptide- Safeguards against oxidative free radicals induced damage
- Helps to heal, dry, red and irritated skin
- Helps to reduce trans epidermal water loss (TEWL)
Applications & Uses
- Skin Care Applications
- Skin Care Applications
The constituents of the Olepent® acts by inhibiting oxidation and reducing the damage caused by natural wear and tear process of the skin.
In-vitro assays using the Olepent® has shown its potential as an inhibitory agent against enzyme induced skin damage and its modulatory effect on the levels of transforming growth factor beta (TGF-) and Fibroblast Growth Factor (FGF) in the cultured cells.
