Passionfruit Seed Oil Extract (Passioline)
Passionfruit seed oil extract, known as Passioline, works to repair, restore, and restructure the skin, bringing it back to its normal state. It stimulates the synthesis of elastin and collagen, accelerating tissue regeneration during the recovery process, while also soothing weakened skin.
1. Repairs
Passionfruit seed oil extract acts to repair the skin at three levels:
- Dermis (the deeper skin layer)
- Dermal-Epidermal Junction (DEJ) (the boundary between the dermis and epidermis)
- Epidermis (the outermost skin layer)
It helps repair and restore these layers rapidly, while also promoting the regeneration of necessary tissue for skin repair. Key components include:
- Hyaluronic Acid: A vital component that helps maintain, support the movement, and promote tissue regeneration.
- Perlecan: A key protein in the dermal-epidermal junction (DEJ), along with fibronectin, a glycoprotein. Both play essential roles in anchoring and maintaining the structure of the tissue.
2. Remodels
Passionfruit seed oil extract works to aid in skin remodeling by promoting the production of:
- Elastin: Essential for creating and providing elasticity in the process of regenerating new skin.
- Fibromodulin and Lumican: Core proteins that help bind and organize collagen tissue, which positively impacts the increase of tissue necessary for restoring the skin to its normal, healthy state.
3.Soothes
In addition to its repair and remodeling effects, passionfruit seed oil extract also helps soothe sensitive skin. Clinical studies show that the extract helps calm skin that has lost moisture (TEWL) and restores proper microcirculation, allowing the skin to return to its healthy, balanced state.
This combination of repairing, remodeling, and soothing properties makes Passionfruit Seed Oil a powerful ingredient for maintaining skin health and vitality.
