Transdermal Delivery Systems for Anti-Aging Compositions
77 patents in this list
Updated:
Transdermal delivery of anti-aging compounds faces significant biological barriers - notably the stratum corneum's selective 500 Dalton threshold and its highly organized lipid matrix structure. Current topical formulations typically achieve less than 5% penetration of active ingredients, with molecular size and polarity being key limiting factors in crossing the skin barrier.
The fundamental challenge lies in developing carrier systems that can transport therapeutic molecules across the stratum corneum while maintaining both the stability of active ingredients and the integrity of the skin barrier function.
This page brings together solutions from recent research—including pH-responsive hyaluronic acid nanoparticles, ethosome-based delivery systems, flexible liposomes with specialized lipid matrices, and microneedle patch technologies. These and other approaches focus on enhancing the bioavailability of anti-aging compounds while ensuring consistent delivery profiles and minimal skin irritation.
