Strategies for successful aging, including the use of food supplements, are part approach to support skin youthfulness. To demonstrate efficacy fermented bilberry extract (FBE) against aging and uneven complexion, a clinical trial was carried out on 66 subjects with visible "crow's feet" wrinkles, mild-to-moderate slackness, tone. The wrinkle depth, smoothness (Ra) roughness (Rz), firmness (R0) elasticity (R2), coloration (ITA°), antioxidant capacity were measured before after 28 (D28), 56...
Belight3TM, a nutricosmetic formulation containing polyphenol-rich extracts, has previously been demonstrated to be safe and effective in brightening skin color dark spots clinical study involving Asian volunteers. The aim of this was investigate the efficacy lightening Caucasian population, which is characterized by lighter pigmentation greater visibility hyperpigmentation, as well determine whether supplementation increased sensitivity UV exposure. A randomized, double-blind,...
Hyaluronic acid (HA) content in the skin progressively decreases with age, thus its supplementation - either topical, oral and by subcutaneous injection represents a first line intervention to ameliorate aging signs. The present multicenter randomized placebo-controlled trial (RCT) evaluated antiaging efficacy of an In&Out treatment, i.e. concomitant through cosmetic cream, administration specifically designed HAs, Full Spectrum HAs (FS-HA), multiethnic population instrumental...

This study aimed at investigating the effect of a food supplement in ameliorating skin, hair, and nails conditions. An open-label on 21 women with mild-to-moderate aging all over face (including wrinkles/fine lines, loss skin firmness/elasticity, normal to dry skin), acute telogen effluvium, brittle/fragile was conducted. Skin (moisturization, elasticity, profilometry, thickness), hair (pull test phototricogram), (clinical analysis nail plate status) parameters were measured baseline, after...
The skin is a barrier organ subjected to lifelong exposure internal and external factors influencing both its biological response appearance. A randomized split-face study was carried out on 22 adult female outdoor workers using an artichoke leaf extract (CynageTM). product’s efficacy measured before after 28 days of use. following parameters were measured: wrinkle depth, roughness, radiance, assess the effect appearance; Ferric Reducing Antioxidant Power (FRAP), total antioxidant capacity;...
L’efficacia della Ciclosporina-A (CsA) nel trattamento psoriasi e nota da 30 anni. La sua maggiore limitazione pero correlata al rischio di eventi avversi quali l’ipertensione arteriosa l’alterazione funzionalita renale che sembrerebbero non solo dose-dipendenti ma anche proporzionali alla durata terapia. Pertanto, la possibilita formulare uno schema in grado controllare efficacemente le manifestazioni cliniche lungo termine con un profilo sicurezza accettabile risulta sempre piu importante...
