Research Study on the Properties and Characteristics of Matrixyl 3000
Matrixyl 3000 is an anti-wrinkling and lifting effect ingredient that provides an anti-aging effect. By definition Matrixyl 3000 contains two matrikines, Pal-GHK and Pal-GQPR which act in synergy to restore and maintain the skin’s youthful appearance.
Matrixyl 3000 properties are created by matrikines which are messengers of cutaneous restructuration and repair. They activate the neosynthesis of extracellular matrix macromecules providing Matrixyl 3000 with a visible ant-wrinkle efficacy.
Characteristics of Matrixyl 3000’s matrikines are that they are capable of regulating cell activities. They interact with specific receptors to activate certain genes involved in the process of extracellular matrix renewal and cell proliferation. With age these mechanisms become progressively weaker.
Clinical study in which 2 panels of 23 volunteers aged 39 to 74 applied a cream containing 3%
Matrixyl™3000 to their face against twice a day for 56 days. Anti-wrinkling and lifting efficacy was assessed by profilometry and photography.

While products like arginerline relax skin to lessens wrinkles, Matrixyl 3000 rebuilds the collagen under the surface to lessen or eliminate wrinkles. Studies show that Matrixyl 3000 is an excellent anti-aging, face lifting and anti-wrinkle product.
