An All Natural Endogenous Collagen and
Hyaluronic Acid Secretion Enhancer |
Astrion™ is a proprietary cosmaceutical formulation consisting of an extract from Astragalus membranaceous and highly concentrated and enriched Astragalosides. Astrion™ can help reduce wrinkles and fine lines and promote firmer and younger looking skin through increased endogenous hydration and UV protection.
In an in vitro study, Astrion™ demonstrated to:
- Increase proline uptake
- Increase collagen synthesis in dermal cells
- Increase collagen synthesis in epidermal cells
- Increase collagen secretion in dermal cells
- Increase collagen III synthesis in dermal cells
- Increase collagen III synthesis in epidermal cells
- Increase glucosamine uptake
- Increase hyalouronic acid synthesis in dermal cells
- Decrease MMP-1 synthesis
In a human study, Astrion™ demonstrated to reduce wrinkle and melanin volume when compared to a control group.
