Facial Appearance Improvements and Gene Expression Changes with Topical Formulation for DNA Damage Repair.
Amaryllis Aganahi, Richard Parker, Professor Yohei Tanaka, MD
Paper Summary
This paper focuses on the potential of #6 The Night Crème to assist in DNA repair and enhancing skin firmness, hydration and luminosity.
In a 28- and 56-day in vivo study, #6 The Night Crème showed significant skin improvement: 100% reported better hydration and firmness, along with increased radiance, clarity, and reduced redness. In vitro, tests confirmed enhanced skin cell health and gene expression related to repair and rejuvenation. Notably, genes involved in retinol conversion, retinoid absorption, collagen synthesis, and skin barrier function showed substantial increases: up to 1738%, 574%, 398%, and 1064%, respectively.
