Unveiling the Power of Growth Factor in Youth-Boosting Skin Care

Growth factors are proteins that can be derived from various sources such as human cell cultures, plants, and bioengineered cells.

While the effectiveness of growth factors is still modest, they are expected to be used in combination with other treatments like lasers and microneedling. However, consumers should be cautious as skincare products are not closely regulated by the FDA, and there are currently no standardized protocols or guidelines for the use of topical growth factors.

The Skin Benefits of CoQ10: A Powerful Antioxidant

Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is an antioxidant that is gaining recognition as a beneficial skincare ingredient. While commonly marketed for heart health, CoQ10 is widely used in Japanese anti-aging skincare products.
