NOVEL APPROACH TO ANTI-AGING FACIAL SKIN CARE

[Presenter]
          

Tomonobu Ezure, Senior Scientist (Cosmetics Basic Research Center), Shiseido Research Center

[Summary]
          

We elucidated that "sagging" and "nasal-labial folds", which become more visible due to aging, are related to decrease in skin elasticity. Facial shape drastically changes with aging; and sagging and nasal-labial folds, which have been the concern for many women, are formed. As a result of the joint research with Mr. Kyoichi Matsuzaki, who is Associate Professor of St. Marianna University School of Medicine, and Mr. Takahiro Ochiya, who is Chief of Division of Molecular and Cellular Medicine, National Cancer Center Research Institute, it was elucidated that one of the major factors is the fact that decrease in skin elasticity due to aging makes it difficult to support facial shape. By further advancing this result, we will develop new skincare cosmetics.
