Skin Hydration to Prevent Intrinsic Ageing
29 patents in this list
Updated:
Maintaining optimal skin hydration is a fundamental challenge in preventing intrinsic aging, with studies showing that transepidermal water loss (TEWL) increases by up to 30% in aging skin while natural moisturizing factor (NMF) levels decline steadily after age 30. These changes compromise the skin's barrier function and accelerate the visible signs of aging.
The challenge lies in developing formulations that can both restore immediate hydration and support the skin's natural moisture retention mechanisms without disrupting its delicate barrier function.
This page brings together solutions from recent research—including network-forming humectant systems, barrier-reinforcing ceramide complexes, biomimetic moisturizing agents, and plant-derived barrier repair ingredients. These and other approaches focus on achieving sustained hydration while supporting the skin's natural moisturizing mechanisms and barrier integrity.
