Results of Clinical Test

Lipotec's Antioxidant Proves to Reduce Melanin Index for Fairer Complexion


A recent clinical test was performed with Asian volunteers between 18-44 years old that applied to the face a cream containing 0.05% LIPOCHROMAN® molecule on a randomized half side of the face and a placebo cream on the other side. After 14, 28 and 56 days, the melanin index in the skin of the volunteers was measured by mexametry, which is based on measuring the light reflected by the skin. In only 14 days the melanin index was reduced up to 6.9%.

This percentage increased in 28 days to 9.4% and in 56 days to 13.3%, showing the demelanizing effect of the ingredient and suggesting a fairer complexion.

Protection from Reactive Species


The skin is the first organ that faces the elements and thousands of chemicals and reactive species coming from synthetic chemicals and pollutants as well as those of natural origin like pollen and radiation.

Reactive species from outside and those formed within the body itself are very stable and difficult to eliminate. They can accumulate in the body over time causing allergies, inflammation and accelerating external signs of aging like wrinkles, sagging and pigmentation. LIPOCHROMAN® molecule protects from these reactive species within the body.
