Science

Mechanism of Action

This complex ferment filtrate operates via multiple biological pathways to enhance skin health. It exhibits potent antioxidant capabilities by activating the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway, effectively reducing intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) and elevating the activity of key antioxidant enzymes like superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT). Concurrently, it acts as an anti-inflammatory agent. For skin rejuvenation, it positively influences collagen type I (COL-I) gene expression and hyaluronic acid synthesis, while simultaneously reducing the expression of matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) which degrades collagen. It also contributes to skin brightening through melanin production inhibition, improves skin hydration, reinforces the skin's natural barrier, and supports a healthy skin microbiome balance.
