Niacinamide PC
The perfect ally for menopausal skin
Skin changes during menopause
During menopause, the hormonal decline takes its toll drastically on the skin.
Skin becomes thinner, collagen is significantly degraded; deep wrinkles and age spots form and skin loses water and becomes dry. All these changes often lead to a sense of discomfort and diminished self-confidence as women contend with the visible alterations in their skin's texture and appearance.
Countering the effects of menopausal changes
A new in vivo study from dsm-firmenich shows that Niacinamide PC is an effective solution for menopausal skin concerns. It addresses issues such as dryness, sensitivity, fine lines, wrinkles by strengthening the skin barrier and protecting against collagen degradation. Its DNA repair properties and ability to fade hyperpigmentation make Niacinamide PC ideal for menopausal women skincare routines, enhancing overall skin health and resilience during this multi-change period.
Protection against Collagen degradation
Collagen synthesis is generally reduced during menopause. Treatment with Niacinamide PC resulted in lower levels of free proline and acetyl-proline, confirming its effectiveness in preserving collagen integrity and maintaining skin elasticity.
Significant increase of free proline by 80% and significant reduction of free proline by 23% after treatment by 5% Niacinamide PC vs placebo
