DefenAge Scores Defensin Master Anti-Aging Patent

This patent concludes the international family of DefenAge's patents for the use of Defensin-molecules to reverse signs of skin aging on a global scale - including a decrease in visible fine and coarse wrinkles, pore size, and pigmentation.

DefenAge Skincare received Defensin Master Anti-Aging Patent from the US Patent Office (Patent #11,491,096).

The new patent recognizes DefenAge's ground-breaking cell stimulating compositions and methods to create fresh, new skin. This patent concludes the international family of DefenAge's patents for the use of Defensin-molecules to reverse signs of skin aging on a global scale - including a decrease in visible fine and coarse wrinkles, pore size, and pigmentation.

 "Defensins are unique natural molecules that trigger a regenerative response in the skin, similar to the one our body generates during wound healing,” says Nashville-0based dermatologist Natalie M. Curcio, MD, MPH, MMHC, in a news release. “Every time a scratch or wound on the skin heals, the skin in the healed (closed) wound area is always younger than the skin around it. This is because our body activates "preserved" young cells to heal wounds. In other words, the body creates new, young skin to repair wounds. Defensins activate the same mechanism in our body, meaning that every time defensins are applied to the skin, they activate the body to produce new and young skin without a wound."

Defensins activate dormant preserves of "fresh" cells in the body, LGR6-positive skin master cells. After activating, LGR6-positive cells physically migrate into the basal layer of the skin and create a new epidermis, and eventually, new, younger-acting skin, delivering all the advantages of retinols without irritation, inflammation, or sun-sensitivity.

 "DefenAge is one of the most rigorously tested and proven modern cosmeceutical products you can find,” adds Houston dermatologist Dr. Suneel Chilukuri. “The studies show that any part of the skin is able to respond to Defensins, with improvement in a variety of skin qualities addressing almost all aspects of visible skin aging, including the face, skin around the eyes, and body. Even the scalp and skin under the hair improves and normalizes hair growth metrics."

The quality and wide range of results are also appreciated by consumers. A 2022 consumer survey with more than 850 responses from verified buyers indicated that 94 percent of respondents said that they were satisfied with results they see with DefenAge, 97 percent said that they will purchase DefenAge again, and 91 percent detailed that DefenAge plays key role in their skincare routine.
