Abstract

An excess and accumulation of fat can have very negative effects on skin and body, accelerating ageing and creating sagging of the skin, among others.
The ingredient SARCOSLIM RE-SHAPEPRCF (INCI name: Sarcocapnos Crassifolia callus lysate), made from the callus culture of the extremophile and close to extinction South-Iberian plant Sarcocapnos crassifolia, introduces the new concept of Liposculpting: a skin remodeling system that helps reduce fat, while taking advantage of the intercellular communication and energy released through the burning of these lipids, to tighten and reaffirm the tissue, making possible for specific parts of the body to be sculpted at will.
A full panel of studies support the multi-activity claims of SARCOSLIM RE-SHAPEPRCF: in vitro tests demonstrate the ingredient’s anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, while ex vivo tests were performed to proof its Lipolytic effect, skin restructuration and metabolic activation in skin explants. Finally, in vivo testing was carried out with volunteers with and without caloric restriction, in order to measure the ability of the ingredient to increase and improve firmness and elasticity in specific parts of the body. The results not only demonstrated the active’s high efficacy, remodeling effect and targeted slimming, but also, its synergistic effect with diet: although the ingredient is very efficient in absence of diet, its efficacy is even higher under caloric restriction.
