Lactobionic Acid

Lactobionic Acid is a Bionic Acid that enhances skin clarity and provides skin plumping and firming effects. It is a patented, non-irritating “Bionic” Poly Hydroxy Acid (PHA) derived from natural sugars. It helps to prevent and reverse the appearance of photo-ageing, including fine lines and wrinkles, uneven pigmentation, enlarged pores, and roughness. The “Bionic” Acid promotes firmness by inhibiting the MMP enzyme responsible for the degradation of collagen and consequent wrinkling and skin laxity.  As a natural humectant, it binds water to create a moisturising barrier on the skin. Lactobionic Acid is a potent antioxidant helping to prevent oxidative damage.
