ALGAKTIV®LightSKN – Intelligent care for age spots and uneven skin
ALGAKTIV® LightSKN is an innovative biotechnological active ingredient derived from microalgae that offers a scientifically advanced solution for uneven skin tone and age spots. ALGAKTIV® LightSKN is extracted from the marine microalgae Dicrateria rotunda, which is native to the Cantabrian Sea in the Atlantic Ocean.
Unlike traditional skin lightening agents, which inhibit tyrosinase and can alter the natural skin color, ALGAKTIV® LightSKN acts selectively under melanogenic conditions and modulates melanin production without disrupting the skin's natural processes. Its mechanism of action targets key areas involved in pigmentation, including reducing melanocyte density, calming local inflammation, reducing melanin transfer, and moderating melanogenesis. This intelligent melanin modulation ensures a brighter, more even skin tone while preserving the skin's natural color balance.
Extensive in vitro studies show that ALGAKTIV®LightSKN reduces age spots, inhibits inflammation, and maintains normal melanin synthesis. In vivo studies further confirm its effectiveness: a double-blind, placebo-controlled study with thirty subjects confirmed the preservation of natural skin tone, while smaller studies with 5 to 30 participants showed a significant reduction in age spots and a visible evening out of skin tone over a 4-week application period. ALGAKTIV®LightSKN proved effective even under extreme conditions, such as the hottest summer in Barcelona, confirming its robust performance.
Produced sustainably using state-of-the-art biotechnology, ALGAKTIV®LightSKN represents the next generation of ingredients for skin lightening and tone balancing without compromising the skin's natural beauty.
