Objective: Normal circadian rhythms are essential to the repair mechanisms of oxidative stress implicated in skin aging. Given reports that hyaluronic acid (HA) homeostasis exhibits a different profile in chronological skin aging, as compared to environmental or extrinsic aging, an improved understanding of the way HA interacts with its surroundings, and the impact of HA injectables in replacing lost HA and encouraging rejuvenation, is of key benefit to skin aging treatments. The objectives of these current studies were twofold.

Introduction: Skin aging is a natural process that cannot be stopped. However, there are many ways to help attenuate premature aging of the skin and reduce the signs that have already appeared. One of them is the subcutaneous administration of preparations containing a combination of hyaluronic acid, active amino acids, and peptides providing an anti-aging clinical effect.

Background: Biomimetic peptides are synthetic compounds that are identical to amino acid sequence synthesized by an organism and can interact with growth factor receptors and provide antiaging clinical effects.
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of biomimetic peptides on the repair processes in the dermis using a model of cell cultures and in vivo.
Patients And Methods: Five female volunteers were subjected to the injection of biomimetic peptides 1 month prior to the abdominoplasty procedure.
