Is a Cosmetic More Effective if Combined With Its Food Supplement?

Published On: 9 June 2022

 

HYALURONIC ACID (HA) HAS LONG BEEN USED FOR ITS ANTI-AGE PROPERTIES, AS AN INGREDIENT IN BOTH TOPICAL APPLICATIONS AND FOOD SUPPLEMENTS.

In this study, a novel sodium hyaluronate, based on the innovative full spectrum technology, was administered as an ingredient of a cosmetic product and as the main constituent of a food supplement to evaluate its efficacy in counteracting skin ageing signs.

 

  • COMPLIFE ITALY LABS, PAVIA
  • 75 MATURE FEMALE SUBJECTS
  • 4 WEEKS OF PRODUCTS ADMINISTRATION + 1 WEEK OF FOLLOW-UP
  • RANDOM TREATMENT ASSIGNMENT:
  • ACTIVE FOOD SUPPLEMENT + PLACEBO COSMETIC PRODUCT,
  • ACTIVE COSMETIC PRODUCT + PLACEBO FOOD SUPPLEMENT,
  • BOTH PRODUCTS CONTAINING THE ACTIVE INGREDIENT (“IN&OUT” TREATMENT)

 

MORE EFFICIENT, LONGER

 

Improvement of all the outcome measures (skin moisturization, elasticity, firmness and profilometry)

was achieved by all treatments (p < 0.05); however, the combined treatment resulted in a further

amelioration of the skin aging signs with respect to the two single active treatments (p < 0.001), and

such effect lasted also after the follow-up period.

In conclusion, such results confirmed that the concomitant administration of hyaluronans by these two different routes represents more than an interesting approach to counteract skin aging signs.
