health patch

 

A skin patch in development is able to deliver wrinkle-fighting ingredients deeper into the skin than topical creams can. What looks like a small bandage is lined with hundreds of tiny, biodegradable needles that painlessly pierce the top layer of skin and then dissolve within 30 minutes to release their contents. When 24 women applied the patches, which were loaded with vitamin C or a retinoid, every other day for 12 weeks, they experienced significant reductions in crow's-feet, according to a study published in the International Journal of Cosmetic Science. The technology can also be used to administer treatments that otherwise would require an injection, says Hyungil Jung, a professor of biotechnology at Yonsei University in South Korea, who worked on the research. Jung says the patches will be available commercially in 2015, but in the meantime, using a microneedle-roller device before applying skin creams also improves absorption of anti-aging compounds.

正 在開發中的抗皺貼膜, 能比一般保養品更能傳遞抗皺配方到肌膚深層. 很像OK繃, 裏頭有百條可生物分解的針狀能無痛刺透皮膚表層, 將裏頭的成份在三十分鐘內傳遞. 現有24位婦女用過, 成份是維他命C, 與維他命衍生物, 連續三個月每隔一天用一次, 會看到顯著效果, 小脂肪球會減少. 這項技術可取代需要注射的微整型, 一位南韓醫師這麼說. 這個抗皺面膜預計2015問市, 微針滾輪式的傳輸設計, 使用在一般保養品之前, 可加強保養成份的吸收~
