Ageless: Microneedle Patches 16
Ageless patches are designed to support the appearance of smoother, fresher and hydrated skin around the eye area. Each patch contains 2,600 tiny, dissolving hyaluronic acid microneedles embedded with carefully selected actives like Retinal, Niacinamide, Copper Peptide, Ferulic Acid, and Resveratrol. These microneedles gently melt into the skin, helping ingredients get to where they need to be support a more plump, smooth and refreshed looking skin.
Featuring:
- Tiny 0.3mm dissolving microneedles to support smooth, hydrated skin
- Ingredients formulated to improve the appearance of the under-eye area
- Easy, gentle application for a refreshed look
- Not suitable for use while pregnant or trying to conceive
Description
Combined technologies of microneedling and evidence-based ingredients to support a fresher, smoother and more elastic looking skin.
Each Ageless patch contains 2,600 dissolving hyaluronic acid microneedles embedded with Retinal, Niacinamide, Hyaluronic Acid, Copper Peptide, Ferulic Acid, Resveratrol, and more. Each needle is 0.3 millimeters in length, designed to painlessly help delivery of ingredients to the skin, assisting in the delivery of active ingredients to where they work best.
While Ageless patches may provide a noticeable effect after a single use due to hyaluronic acid, published studies suggest more consistent changes can be observed over 8 to 12 weeks with repeated use.
Pack sizes:
1 pack contains 4 patches
4 pack contains 16 patches
1 pack + Ultimate A contains 4 Ageless patches and 15ml Vitamin A night cream
About microneedles
Advances in microneedle technology allow active skincare ingredients to be incorporated into dissolving microneedles. These small needles can painlessly enter the outermost layers of the skin where they deliver active ingredients and the (dissolved) hyaluronic acid.
The result is a brighter, plumper, more hydrated and smoother looking skin
Dissolving microneedle patches are increasingly used in skincare to help reduce the appearance of fine lines and improve skin texture.
Evidence
Retinal
Also known as Vitamin A, Retinal is a next-generation retinoid used in skincare to help refine skin texture and improve the appearance of uneven tone and visible signs of ageing. It’s well tolerated and suitable for most skin types, including those that find traditional retinoids too harsh.
Niacinamide
Also known as Vitamin B3. Niacinamide is a well-studied ingredient that helps maintain a healthy skin barrier and supports an even-looking skin tone. It is well tolerated and suitable for all skin types, making it a versatile addition to many skincare formulations.
Dissolving Microneedles
Dissolving microneedles are designed to deliver skincare ingredients into the skin in a precise and controlled way. Since 2016, research into dissolving microneedles has advanced, and they are now commonly used in skincare to support the absorption of active ingredients and improve the appearance of skin texture and smoothness.
Emerging evidence
Hyaluronic Acid
The optimum size of Hyaluronic Acid for skincare is still a topic of research. Emerging evidence suggests that medium-size HA can support skin hydration and help improve the appearance of skin smoothness and plumpness.
Ferulic Acid
Ferulic acid’s emerging evidence suggests it can improve the effectiveness of Vitamin C and help to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Caffeine
Caffeine is emerging as a promising addition to anti-aging skincare products. Dissolving microneedles provide a viable method for delivery.
Green Tea
Green Tea Extract is a plant-based antioxidant that supports the skin’s surface and helps maintain an even-looking tone and smoother texture.
Copper Peptide
Some studies for copper peptides in skincare demonstrated that they improve the appearance of skin elasticity and firmness, as well as reducing the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, sun damage and hyperpigmentation.
Resveratrol
Resveratrol is a plant-derived antioxidant that helps support an even-looking skin tone and improves the appearance of skin texture and smoothness.
Usage
Step 1:
For use at night on clean skin or even better, over skincare. Ensure that skin is dry.
Step 2:
Remove patch from plastic packing. Remove the white protective strip surrounding the patch. Make sure not to touch the needles
Step 3:
Apply patch to the desired area. Smooth patch over the skin, applying gentle pressure. A light prickling/ scratching sensation will be felt.
Repeat until the prickling sensation is no longer felt.
Step 4:
Leave the patch on for at least 20 minutes or (preferably) overnight.
Things to note:
It is normal for a residue to remain after removing the patch (this is excess hyaluronic acid).
Recommended minimum usage frequency: 2 times weekly.
While Ageless patches will have a small effect after just one use (due to the application of hyaluronic acid). Studies showing the real effectiveness of dissolving microneedle patches allow for 8 to 12 weeks.
