The fused-ring cyanoacrylates family of chemical compounds offers a highly promising, entirely new paradigm within anti-aging chemistry. This chemistry platform eliminates one of the key causes of UV-related aging by stopping the formation of damaging light-induced ROS and free radicals.
UV can also directly damage DNA without forming ROS. Early data suggests that DNA bases can be stabilized, but we are still seeking to prove this in skin.
By acting directly on the skin’s photosensitizers, e.g., endogenous poryphyrins, Micah™ from Hallstar stabilizes and balances energy conditions within the skin itself, including the potential to stabilize the skin’s own retinol. UV-induced skin aging is not merely stopped or repaired it simply does not occur.
