SGS has published a new white paper detailing state-of-the-art non-invasive techniques for assessing skin health and longevity. The document aims to provide researchers with scientifically validated strategies for evaluating products.
The key mechanisms of skin aging
SGS has unveiled its latest white paper entitled Skin longevity: from ancient wisdom to modern clinical evaluation. This document focuses on the biological mechanisms that influence skin aging, such as cellular senescence, oxidative stress and telomere shortening.
Non-invasive tools and integrated clinical protocols
The white paper also explores the non-invasive tools that are revolutionizing clinical skin examination. These methodologies include macro imaging, biomechanical testing and biomarker analysis, enabling the production of objective, reproducible data. SGS emphasizes the importance of these techniques in supporting evidence-based product claims. The combined use of visual, functional and molecular measurements creates a robust multidimensional framework for product innovation.
The outlook for the future in this sector remains promising, with the development of ‘omics’ technologies and standardized clinical protocols. These developments pave the way for significant improvements in consumer confidence and innovation in dermo-cosmetic products.
