Lubrizol recently highlighted new findings confirming the efficacy of its Telophi biotech ingredient. The ingredient helps to protect against aging and stress, resulting in improved extracellular matrix balance and the preservation of collagen, the company reports.
Stress Shield + Collagen Boost
Previously, Telophi (INCI: Glycerin (and) Water (Aqua) (and) Bacillus Ferment) was shown in vitro to shield telocytes, stem cells and exosomes against psychological and cellular stress.
The new in vitro, ex vivo and in vivo work confirmed previous findings and highlighted the ingredient's ability to support full-spectrum collagen care.
- The ingredient promoted extracellular matrix homeostasis and preserves collagen integrity and
- It contributed to a firmer, lifted and more harmonious facial contour, with proportions approaching the Golden Ratio (Phi).
