Description
Infinity ingredients is the UK distributor of Vegan DDS EGF from INdermal.
The Epidermal Growth Factor – EGF (Oligopetide-1) is a type of peptide produced in our bodies that acts on the skin, stimulating its repair, growth and the differentiation of new epithelial cells. These processes involve cellular regeneration at the epidermal layer and an increase in the production of collagen, hyaluronic acid and elastin.
Over the years the body increasingly produces less EGF and as a consequence is less able to counteract skin aging. For this reason, the use of EGF containing products prevents and reverses the ageing effect on the skin. Growth factors in general and EGF in particular, are extremely sensitive peptides which are very easily denaturalised by external agents. Furthermore, their ability to penetrate the skin is limited.
INdermal’s Deep Delivery System (DDS) encapsulates EGF to enhance penetration and help protect the active ingredient. This targeted delivery helps address visible signs of ageing by improving skin texture and reducing the appearance, depth, and number of wrinkles, especially around the crow’s feet area. Also applied to the upper eyelids, results were eyelids that were smoother and lighter in wrinkles. . Vegan DDS EGF has shown to support a visibly smoother, protected skin.
