IBR-Snowflake® May Reduce, Prevent Wrinkles

04/16/2009

RAMAT-GAN, Israel—IBR Ltd.'s IBR-Snowflake®, an extract from Leucojum aestivum bulbs, effectively inhibited contraction of muscle cells thereby reducing and preventing wrinkles and fine lines appearance after 28 days. In March 2009, a clinical efficacy study conducted in France on 21 healthy female volunteers, aged 42 to 64, in a double blind, placebo-controlled, randomized hemi-face application, applied IBR-Snowflake 2 percent concentration in a simple cream base twice daily for 28 days. Analysis of fine lines, medium depth and deep wrinkles was carried using Skin Image Analyser® and PRIMOS®. The results showed 2 percent IBR-Snowflake cream induced a: significant decrease in the number of micro relief furrows (30 percent on average); decrease in 86 percent of the subjects; decrease in the number of medium depth wrinkles (15 percent on average); and a decrease in 62 percent of subjects, thus, IBR-Snowflake® found to significantly sooth the skin and reduces wrinkles.

Leucojum aestivum bulb extract (IBR-Snowflake) is part of the anti-aging technology of IBR that captures and transfers flower bulbs dormancy and rejuvenation to skin. Flower bulbs go dormant through the winter-like "beauty sleep" to allow beautiful awaken, rejuvenated blossom in the spring. The IBRanti-aging technology via implementation of DORMINs features slowdown of skin aging as a result of slowing down cell proliferation, thereby preserving youth cell capital and improving skin appearance and maturation. Affecting proliferation of various cell types, including melanocytes may improve age spot appearance. The extract also improved the natural skin defense against extrinsic aging factors being anti oxidant by increased superoxide dismutase (SOD) expression all together enabling IBR-Snowflake as an ideal active to smooth the skin, reduce wrinkling and complete anti aging effects.
