Figure 2: ILLUMISCIN® reduces the size and appearance of age spots.


The graph shows the reduction of age spots over time (n=20). A solution of 6% RAHN’s Cosmetic Active in water/ethanol was applied twice daily. The insert shows an overlay of a representative age spot on days 0 and 84.

Figure 3: Proteasome activation rejuvenates the skin. Top: At day 0, wrinkle depth was measured in four age groups (n=20 each), and a regression line was calculated to delineate age according to the wrinkle depth. Bottom: Subsequently, the age group 41-45 applied a 3% PROTEOLEA® gel twice daily, and wrinkle depth was measured again on days 14 and 28. Using the regression-line function, the age that corresponds to the measured wrinkle depth was calculated. Skin rejuvenation was determined to be 3.3 and 6.1 years within 14 and 28 days, respectively.
