PRO-TECHNOLOGY GEN. “In the cell’s genetic material is information as to why it has to synthesize a protein. But this is a regulated mechanism, ie it is not always on. The pro-gene therapies seek to activate those genes for which there is a rapid and continuous production of these proteins. For now, this is still a largely empirical basis in cosmetics, since although the genes are activated, we do not know how exactly that activation occurs, “says Iglesias.
However, Europe has already launched a product with this technology: Youth Code (L’Oreal Paris), a treatment that aims to stimulate cell genes to work-as when they were younger-against external aggression that is, to regain their “codes of youth.” This concept was born of the discovery of so-called “mismatch repair of the skin” and the finding that its power to react to external aggression is smaller as it rises with age.
