Science
Mechanism of Action
Calcium RNA operates via a dual-action pathway: the ribonucleic acid component provides the building blocks for cellular repair and metabolic signaling, while the calcium ions stabilize cell membranes and regulate the calcium gradient. This synergy optimizes keratinocyte differentiation, ensuring a more resilient skin barrier and enhanced cellular communication.

Key findings
- 01 Clinical assessment of formulations featuring RNA and Calcium DNA demonstrated a 17.8% improvement in skin elasticity over an 84-day period.
- 02 Internal efficacy data suggests that RNA complexes can significantly reduce hyperpigmentation and improve overall skin texture within 28 days of consistent use.
