GENENCARE® OSMS MI contributes to stimulate fibroblasts and boost skin oxygenation to combat the signs of skin fatigue

genencare-osmi-mi inositol enhances skin oxygenation and stimulates the metabolism of fibroblasts to help fight signs of skin fatigue

GENENCARE® OSMS MI helps improve skin elasticity

During a 5-week clinical in-use test, with 40 volunteers, GENENCARE® OSMS MI natural# inositol has been shown to help increase or stabilize three important biomechanical parameters related to skin elasticity.

Energizes Skin

GENENCARE® OSMS MI is a natural# inositol helps energize the skin by stimulating cellular activity3:

  • Keratinocyte differentiation as demonstrated by an increased filaggrin expression by 65%.
  • Boosts fibroblast metabolism, shown by increased mitochondrial respiration (oxygen consumption), ATP (energy), and protein content.

Skin Elasticity

GENENCARE® OSMS MI is a natural# inositol that helps improve skin elasticity by:

  • Increasing or stabilizing three important biomechanical parameters related to skin elasticity. (5-week clinical study, cutometer, 40 volunteers)
genencare osms mi inositol improves skin oxygenation

Skin Oxygenation

GENENCARE® OSMS MI is a natural# inositol that helps improve skin oxygenation, as demonstrated in a one-week clinical study.

The study showed that the oxygen partial pressure decreased on the skin surface area where the cream with inositol was applied, compared to the placebo.

Increased oxygenation is a sign of a higher metabolic activity of cells4.
