What is photomodulation?

The photomodulation is the opposite of photoaging process. Photoaging is associated with damage to skin cells caused by ultraviolet rays. The photomodulation is a new concept in skin care where light emission is used as energy producing waves. After several studies proved that photomodulation is one of the most important factors in creating new cells and collagen fibers. Absorption of light energy from other molecules in the cell membrane creating a biological condition for the creation of new fibers.

In general, the light is associated with the so-called. The photoaging of the skin. How light is transformed into useful energy?

The innovative ingredient PhotoGlow transform light energy into chemical energy (ATP). The technological system PhotoGlow conductive component is made up of microscopic capsules, which contain the active ingredient, coated with binding peptides (ligands). The peptides recognize the receptors of the cells, encased in a horny layer associated with them and allow the active ingredient in the capsules to dissolve the cells. The active ingredients that dissolve in the cells are composed of lactic and glycolic acid, which stimulates the process of disposal of dead cells (the cells that are responsible for graying of the skin), smooth skin texture and contribute to soft and velvety appearance.

What are the active ingredients used in photomodulation?

One ingredient is a biomimetic peptide (heptapeptide 15) is a ligand that binds to FGFR / growth factor receptor of fibroblasts. The receptor is a protein found in the cell membrane, with which the ligand (biomimetic peptide) binds and transmits the chemical signal, wherein the cells are arranged to receive. The function of the receptors is to receive information received from the outside, via the ligands, and thus allows the cell to be activated by this information. The resulting ligand information, for example, signals the cell to distinguish the resulting material and facilitate its adoption.

Another active ingredient is LaraCare – natural extract of polysaccharides or natural resin which contains molecules of polysaccharide, linked in the heavy chain derived from a North American Larch tree using a patented technology for extraction. Unlike the natural resin, the natural resin molecule has binding and low molecular weight, compared to most polysaccharides, absorb easily and act in the depth of the skin layers. The use is more extracts of Canadian willow, hyaluronic acid and the like.

Are there any side effects?

They have not been proven so far stranchni effects because everything is based on encouraging the natural processes in the skin.
