NANOSOMES: AN INTELLIGENT COSMETIC

Many DS Laboratories products feature Nanosomes, today’s most advanced technology for the transportation of biotechnical substances. These carrier vehicles encapsulate active ingredients, deliver them deeper into the skin, and release them slowly.

Nanosomes are proprietary, organic, liposomal microspheres designed in such a way that we can predetermine their degree of absorption, thus allowing active compounds to penetrate the skin to a desired depth and release their contents over certain period. As the microspheres are absorbed, the enzymes of the skin digest them and release their contents in a programmed manner.

Since their introduction in 1960s, liposomes have been deployed effectively for diverse applications, ranging from cosmetics to cancer drugs. However, their promise has been limited by a significant drawback: Early liposomes have tended to be unstable, crushing and dissolving easily, delivering only marginal benefits.

Unlike the first-generation liposomes found in simple cosmetics, however, DS Laboratories’ next-generation Nanosomes enjoy high stability at room temperature and high density per unit volume. These traits allow higher concentrations of the active ingredients being encapsulated and better effectiveness than is achievable from other skin-care technologies.

Following are some of the benefits delivered by DS Laboratories’ Nanosomes, compared with standard liposomes:

Stability at room temperature without refrigeration,

Non-oxidation below 104°F,

Applied at a wide range of pH levels — from 4 to 9, and

Capable of 1,000 to 10,000 more particles per unit volume.

This highly advanced delivery system, combined with the finest quality natural active ingredients, insures remarkable results and effectiveness. Such technology puts DS Laboratories at the forefront of innovation in dermatology.
