Reversing the Aging Proccess

Products in nanotechnology: Cosmetics

With nanotechnology proliferating into the production of daily-use consumables, the cosmetic industry is one of the leading product areas to employ nanotechnology extensively. Some of the notable highlights of nanotechnology products in cosmetics include anti-aging products and skin care solutions.

Rewind Time Vitamin C and a nanotechnology delivery system is one of the excellent anti-aging cosmetic products to employ nanotechnology. This is a vitamin C serum that facilitates the production of collagen and elastin in the fibroblasts, contributing to bring down the appearance of wrinkles. The product is also known to reduce discoloration as a result of exposure to sun and also prevents the damage of free-radicals thus slowing down the aging process. The product contains a type of peptide, a form of non-irritating vitamin C delivered through a nanotechnology system to ensure that the active ingredients penetrate deep into the surface of the skin to reach the lower level of the skin called as dermis. Crystal Radiance is known to exfoliate, bluff and stimulate the skin cells to give a microdermabrasion experience. The product helps to smooth the patchy and dry skin to increase the cell turnover thereby producing a soft and glowing skin. In this product the highlight is the employment of nanotechnology to aid the complete and deep penetration of the product into the skin to ensure the complete benefits ensuing from the product (www.jamieoskin.com)

Hyalogy™ P-effectis yet another interesting product that employs patented nanotechnology. The product is an ultimate example for the breakthrough in the formulation technology that employs a process of proprietary nanotechnology. Notably, this company is also the first one in the industry to create a product in the cosmetology market that ensures the hyaluronic acid to penetrate deep into the skin while applied topically. The Hyalogy™ Total Skin Care Line provides a more effective and deep hydration into the skin for a prolonged period of time to yield better results than the current formulations of conventional skin moisturizers. The notable achievement of this product is the underlying research efforts into advanced infiltration nanotechnology. The process of deep penetration aided by the nanotechnology ensures deep miniaturization beneath the surface of the skin without the use of needles. In all the previous attempts of the cosmetic industry, hyaluronic acid had to be injected into the dermis of the skin using needle as the formulations could not themselves penetrate deep inside. In the above said regards, the role of nanotechnology in the cosmetics industry has certainly offered a remarkable breakthrough. http://www.nanotechnologyworld.co.uk/content/view/329/31/
