Global periorbital skin rejuvenation by a topical eye cream containing low molecular weight heparan sulfate (LMW-HS) and a blend of naturally derived extracts

Maintaining a youthful appearance is a priority for many people, resulting in a rising demand for efficacious antiaging cosmetic products and procedures. Global eye rejuvenation is sought more frequently and at a younger age than other treatments. Major concerns around the eye area are periorbital hyperpigmentation, puffiness, and lines and wrinkles. Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) are complex carbohydrates that modulate skin health, repair and renewal. Heparan sulfate (HS) is the most biologically active GAG though it is too large and polar to penetrate the skin.
