New terms are regularly introduced into our beauty vocabulary as ingredients and aesthetic treatments evolve—and epigenetic assets should be at the forefront right now. The name may be unfamiliar, but when it comes to a tailored approach to preventing or comprehensively combating the signs of ageing, we shouldn’t lose sight of epigenetic active treatments. And so, facial care’s benchmark brand, Mesoetetic, inspired by advanced medical-aesthetic technology, has developed the age element protocol, an innovative anti-ageing treatment with epigenetic efficacy.
What are they and why do we care?
Dr Alfredo Martínez, director of the Mesoestetic Biotechnology Unit, says: “Epigenetics is the innovative component of this treatment. Through these epigenetic assets, the efficacy of the treatment in all its phases is ensured.” And it is that this important component is ideal to carry out a most global protocol: fighting skin ageing from its origin. Using this, the skin regenerates, becoming firmer and more luminous, smoothing wrinkles and recovering the loss of density.
This anti-ageing treatment combines three key active ingredients: shikimic acid, which prolongs the life of cells through ‘the protein of youth’; maslinic acid, which enhances the synthesis of hyaluronic acid (slowed with age), collagen, elastin and proteoglycans, thus increasing skin’s hydration, firmness and densification; and isoquercetin, which has an antioxidant effect, protecting the dermis from free radicals (highly ageing), while increasing luminosity. Best of all, no matter what your skin type, age (or your degree of ageing), or specific needs, it’s a completely customisable and adaptable treatment for each person thanks to four boosters that, after a detailed diagnosis, will be used or combined as determined by the skincare professional.
The process itself is uncomplicated, starting with the mesoestetic diagnostic system to determine the appropriate treatment in each case. This diagnosis will determine the correct cocktail of boosters your skin needs. There are four concentrates that can be perfectly combined: brightening booster, to boost the radiance of the face and combat the first signs of ageing; firming booster, to provide firmness, prevent sagging, and help redefine the facial oval; anti-wrinkle booster, to smooth wrinkles and fine lines, leaving a smooth and soft dermis; and redensifying booster, a powerful redensifier to plump up the skin if it lacks volume, leaving it more supple, nourished, and juicy. Incredibly, from the first session you begin to notice results thanks to its flash effect, but to see optimal results, a total of five sessions is recommended to complete the treatment.
