• ARGIRELINE: A peptide made of six amino acids, argireline has a very similar activity to that of Botulinum Toxin A. Argireline is used in the ATX-NAT Solution for its ability to reduce deep wrinkles. It has a superior safety profile compared to Botulinum Toxin A, which, unlike argireline, irrevocably breaks the SNAP-25 protein, impedes the creation of the SHARE complex and consequently paralyzes the muscle.
• BETAINE (TMG): An organic compound that is commonly found in plants, betaine has the ability to modulate effects of hyperosmolarity on cell functions. It’s used for protection against osmotic stress, drought, high salinity or high temperature. Intracellular accumulation of betaines permits water retention in cells, protecting from the effects of dehydration. Betaines also increase cell membrane fluidity, facilitating the absorption of nutrients in the cell.
• HYALURONIC ACID: As it is well known that hyaluronic acid is able to retain water and reduce evaporation. This activity helps hydration, skin tone and, as a consequence, it improves skin texture.
