Science

The mechanism of Cysteine DNA involves the activity of Cysteine, a semi-essential amino acid critical for skin health. Cysteine contributes to the regulation of immune responses, moderates inflammatory processes, and functions as a humectant to attract and retain moisture. By supporting the skin's natural defense mechanisms and hydration levels, Cysteine DNA aims to improve the appearance of dry, aging, or damaged skin, restoring its vitality and potentially assisting in the management of conditions such as rosacea by influencing antimicrobial peptide formation.
