• Leaves skin with a powdery, matte complexion: 100%

5% Gluconolactone

Scientists are particularly interested in a brand new molecule for anti-aging hydration.anti-aging hydraration is Gluconolactone. Not only does its molecular structure attracts and binds water molecules in the skin, but at 5% it will also increase the expression of Aquaporins (channels through which water circulates from cell to cell), stimulate cell regeneration, protect cells from oxidation, and have remarkable pro-collagenic activity. In fact, in addition to stimulating the synthesis of pro-Collagen I and V (2 types of collagen which are "compatible" to form a collagen fiber), it inhibits the expression of enzymes responsible for degrading collagen fibers (matrix metalloproteinases). This active ingredient is offered in a growing number of aesthetic clinics, and is the star of our HYDRA PROTOCOLE treatments.

1% Non-cross-linked high-molecular-weight hyaluronic acid (1000 Kda)

When a practicing dermatologist needs to perform an Anti-Aging Moisturizing treatment, he or she often turns to Hyaluronic Acids, extremely effective molecules for immediately restoring an effect to the skin, as they bind water at the heart of the cells.. We have chosen a non-cross-linked Hyaluronic Acid (often used in Mesolifts by dermatologists), with a high molecular weight, whose molecules are free to circulate to fix water in the epidermis. Obtained through a Biotechnology process, its molecular structure is strictly identical to that produced by keratinocytes, enabling it to increase skin hydration by +42% 24 hours after application.

0.25% Ultra-low molecular weight hyaluronic acid (50Kda)

For deep deep anti-aging hydrationThe dermatologist will choose very low molecular weight Hyaluronic Acids, which are rare because they require mastery of the molecular hyper-fragmentation technique. A weight of 50Kda will enable these Hyaluronic Acids to penetrate to the dermis to bind water molecules, but also to boost procollagen I synthesis.

4% Silica

We have chosen a high-quality silica with a specific surface area of 175m²/g and high porosity to ensure remarkable effectiveness for combination to oily skin. This powdered silica has absorbent properties to regulate excess sebum and reduce skin shine. What's more, it acts as a blurring agent by masking irregularities such as imperfections and fine lines, for a smoother, matte complexion.

Advice from Dr Nicolas B.

Dermatologists often prefer Hyaluronic Acids for Anti-Aging Hydration. They opt for a high molecular weight (=1000kda) non-cross-linked Hyaluronic Acid on the surface and low molecular weight (50Kda) Hyaluronic Acids for deeper action, requiring mastery of the molecular hyper-fragmentation technique. My advice for optimal anti-aging results: start with a thorough cleansing morning and evening to improve skin care absorption. Use a night treatmentbecause cell regeneration is at its peak at night, promoting in-depth action of anti-aging skincare products.

Take a small amount of product equivalent to the length of your first distal phalanx (the one with your nail). Emulsify the product between your hands before applying to the entire face, using circular movements, working from the inside out. Reapply to emphasize the neck and décolleté areas.
