In vitro, the ingredient showed increased collagen contraction and improved mitochondrial function, resulting in firmer skin and better muscle tone, similar to microcurrent stimulation, per the company.

One month of treatment with the active ingredient on volunteers achieved a microcurrent-like upper face lifted appearance via a “triorbital” skin lift (supraorbital eyebrow and eyelid lift, orbital crow’s feet lift and infraorbital upper cheek lift), per the company.

Volunteers also presented a minimized appearance of wrinkles and a 13.1% reduction in wrinkle length in seven days, comparable to a commercial microcurrent device.
