538 Anti-aging properties of a passion fruit extract, targeted on wrinkle formation

Intrinsic and extrinsic skin aging are cumulative processes that involve molecular initiating events such as oxidative stress and inflammation. This “inflammaging” process is characterized by increased levels of proinflammatory cytokines, resulting in important damages to extracellular matrix and dermal-epidermal junction leading to loss of skin mechanical properties. These modifications result in the formation of wrinkle, one of the most pr ominent signs of aging. We have developed a patented active ingredient from passion fruit, “maracuja oil concentrate”, rich in unsaponifiable fraction, obtained from one of our sustainable supply chains, according to an optimized, secured and eco-designed manufacturing process.
