TimeWise Repair® Volu-Firm® Lifting Serum

TimeWise Repair^® Volu-Firm^® Lifting Serum

Twice a day, let the lifting begin. Powered by the TimeWise Repair^® Volu-Firm^® Complex, Lifting Serum helps provide youth-restoring firmness, volume and lift among other important benefits. In addition to ingredients that support the synthesis of proteins that provide strength and resilience,* this serum also is designed to influence the production of a very specific collagen – Collagen VII.** This specialized protein is only found adjacent to the DEJ, an area of the skin that plays a critical role in cellular communication and nutrient exchange.

The DEJ (dermal-epidermal junction) includes the area where the epidermis and dermis attach. In younger skin, the fingerlike projections of the DEJ – imagine a wavy line – allow nutrients to flow from one layer to another. As skin ages, these "waves" begin to flatten. This makes the skin more fragile, decreasing the amount of nutrients available to the epidermis and interfering with the skin's normal repair process. This flattening of the DEJ can cause skin to wrinkle and sag. Volu-Firm^® Lifting Serum is formulated to help minimize damage to proteins in the DEJ and promote greater skin resilience.

In addition, Volu-Firm^® Lifting Serum also contains a botanical extract that helps reduce the activity of MMPs (matrix metalloproteinases),* enzymes that play a major role in destroying skin proteins like collagen and elastin. By providing this benefit, this ingredient helps minimize damage to the skin matrix that ultimately contributes to the visible signs of advanced aging.

And since, as skin ages, dryness becomes more of an issue, Volu-Firm^® Lifting Serum also immediately increases skin moisture by 61 percent.

How It Works

Here’s the science behind TimeWise Repair^® Volu-Firm^® Lifting Serum:

It’s designed to influence production of Collagen VII.** Collagen VII is a specialized protein that is only found adjacent to the DEJ (dermal-epidermal junction), an area of the skin that plays a critical role in cellular communication and nutrient exchange. In younger skin, the fingerlike projections of the DEJ – imagine a wavy line – allow nutrients to flow from one layer to another. As skin ages, these "waves" begin to flatten. This makes the skin more fragile, decreasing the amount of nutrients available to the epidermis and interfering with the skin's normal repair process. This flattening of the DEJ can cause skin to wrinkle and sag. Volu-Firm^® Lifting Serum is formulated to help minimize damage to proteins in the DEJ and promote greater skin resilience.

A powerful botanical minimizes the activity of matrix-degrading enzymes.* Throughout our lives, the skin is in a constant state of degradation and renewal, a process that is kept in optimal balance when we are younger. But as we age, chronological and environmental factors overwhelm the skin, and the dermal matrix begins to degrade faster than it can be renewed. Increased activity of MMPs (matrix metalloproteinases) is a common problem in older skin, and left unchecked, they can contribute to the destruction of skin proteins faster than these proteins can be replaced. Volu-Firm^® Lifting Serum is formulated with a botanical extract that reduces the activity of MMPs.* Ingredient: sweet pea extract
