Science

Mechanism of Action

LACTOCOCCUS/NONFAT MILK FERMENT FILTRATE operates by influencing key biological pathways within the skin. It notably stimulates the expression of proteins crucial for cellular cohesion in live epidermal layers, such as Occludin, Desmocollin 1, and Desmoglein 1, alongside enzymes (Kallikrein 5 and 7) that regulate the natural shedding of dead skin cells. This dual action supports epidermal growth and fortifies the stratum corneum. Furthermore, it encourages the production of antimicrobial peptides, essential for robust skin immunity and a harmonious skin microflora. The fermentation process itself generates a spectrum of bioactive compounds, including peptides, enzymes, and organic acids, which collectively contribute to deep hydration, anti-inflammatory effects, antioxidant defense, and pH balance, thereby accelerating skin regeneration and repair.

Key findings

  1. 01 Daily application of 3% Lactococcus Ferment Lysate (a closely related ingredient) twice daily significantly increased stratum corneum thickness by approximately 2 µm and reduced trans-epidermal water loss. These results indicate enhanced barrier function and accelerated skin renewal within a short timeframe.
