Ingredients in Stemuderm
Squalane
This olive oil-derived extract provides long-lasting hydration, eliminates dryness, improves texture, and diminishes fine lines and wrinkles.
Hyaluronic Acid
Attracts moisture, restoring hydration, eliminating dryness, and plumping the skin to smooth lines. It contains antioxidants that reverse aging.
Acetyl Hexapeptide-8
This natural ingredient consists of amino acids that safely decrease muscle contractions under the skin to minimize the appearance of wrinkles and lines.
Jojoba Seed Oil
This deep-penetrating, non-greasy ingredient hydrates and nourishes, improving skin clarity and texture and reducing wrinkles and fine lines.
Acetyl Glutamyl Heptapeptide-1
This peptide relaxes muscles by limiting skin contractions, resulting in reduced wrinkles, furrows, and lines. One article discussed the benefits of this ingredient in anti-wrinkle cosmetic products.
Palmitoyl Oligopeptide
This amino acid compound improves skin elasticity and strength, making it more resistant to stress and damage. It encourages cell matrix repair and renewal and enhances appearance and tone. One review discussed its cosmetic uses and safety.
Malus Domestica Fruit Extract
Malus Domestica Fruit Cell Culture is from a rare Swiss apple, and contains growth enzymes that protect skin cells, increase their longevity, and slow aging. In a 4-week study, 100% of participants had significantly fewer lines and crow's feet.
Apricot Kernel Oil
Apricot Kernel Oil contains fatty acids, vitamins, and antioxidants that seal in moisture and protect against free radicals. It firms and tones the skin, and has soothing anti-inflammatory properties. One study showed its potent antioxidant and antimicrobial benefits.
Matrixyl 3000
This peptide reverses aging by restructuring the skin and stimulating collagen production. It increases elasticity, smoothing lines and wrinkles. One clinical study found that Matrixyl 3000 caused a drastic reduction in wrinkle depth and volume and improved texture.
SYN-AKE™
SYN-AKE™ is an anti-aging tripeptide that relaxes facial muscles to prevent wrinkles and expression lines due to repetitive movements. One study found that SYN-AKE™ increased collagen production and decreased wrinkles and lines.
Ingredients in Suvoderm
Retinol
Retinol - or vitamin A - promotes the synthesis of collagen, helping to make skin firmer and fuller as fine lines and wrinkles are smoothed.
Niacinamide
Works to restore elasticity and fade discoloration while helping retain necessary moisture, giving it a soft, supple texture and smoothing out fine lines.
Hyaluronic Acid
Restores optimal levels of hydration, giving skin a plump appearance and a smoother, more even surface free of fine lines and wrinkles.
Saccharomyces/Copper Ferment (Cu Complex)
Elemental copper is crucial to tissue restoration and repair, and the Cu complex in Suvoderm nourishes your skin cells with a biologically usable form. The metallic micronutrient copper in this advanced peptide formula acts as an antioxidant to neutralize free radicals on your skin and promotes the synthesis of collagen beneath it.
Vitamin E
The antioxidant properties of vitamin E allow it to not only neutralize, but counter, the effects of free radicals on the skin. It also promotes transformation in the extracellular matrix and stimulates the synthesis of skin-strengthening collagen.
Thioctic Acid (Alpha-Lipoic Acid)
Thioctic acid, also known as alpha-lipoic acid, diminishes the appearance of wrinkles, lines, and other visible signs of aging by disabling the skin-damaging free radicals that cause them. This potent, proven antioxidant is soluble in both fat and water. It easily absorbs into your skin to promote anti-aging effects at the cellular level.
Persea Gratissima (Avocado) Oil
Avocado oil is rich with vitamins and other compounds that help your skin regain and maintain ideal moisture. It is quickly absorbed and achieves deep penetration, correcting dryness on the surface of your skin and hydrating the layers beneath it. This all-natural, plant-derived ingredient also soothes irritation and inflammation and disinfects your skin to prevent breakouts and promote quicker healing.
Glycine Soja (Soybean) Oil
Soybeans are packed with essential amino acids and lipids that nourish and moisturize your skin, making it soft and supple to the touch and giving it a dewy, youthful glow and even-textured appearance.
Carnitine
This ingredient in the Suvoderm formula regulates the amount of oil your skin produces, preventing buildup. It benefits shiny, greasy, or dull complexions common to acne- and oil-prone skin, protects your skin with a moisture barrier and promotes quicker healing and overall skin health.
Salvia Officinalis (Sage) Extract
Sage extract has long been put to medicinal use and is believed to deliver many skin-enhancing benefits, including improved blood flow to the surface of the skin and relief from irritation and inflammation. It also has antioxidant properties that can delay skin aging.
Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Seed Oil
This antioxidant provides rich, but gentle hydration and helps your skin lock in moisture, giving you a soft, visibly even complexion. It strengthens your skin's protective moisture barrier, defending your face against pore-clogging dirt, oils, and other impurities and prevents the accumulation of buildup that can cause blemishes or breakouts.
Ubiquinone (Coenzyme Q-10)
Coenzyme Q-10 fights wrinkles both on the surface of your skin and deep beneath it, improving its appearance and composition. It slows collagen breakdown to preserve your skin's elasticity and restore its youthful tone and firmness.
