SCA Biorepair Technology is a secretion produced by the Cryptomphalus Aspersa Snail that is refined and purified through a patented process to pharmacological standards. SCA contains natural growth factors as well as antioxidants and hyaluronic acid and is clinically proven1 to provide reparative benefits and address multiple signs of aging
What are Growth Factors?
Growth factors are proteins your skin produces naturally that provide a multitude of benefits. They help repair damage from the sun and other external aggressors, optimize cellular health, and help reduce inflammation. Everyone has growth factors, however, as we age, growth factors naturally diminish in the skin, which can lead to breakdown in cellular function and visible signs of aging in the skin.
How Does SCA Biorepair Technology Work?
Growth factors in SCA Biorepair Technology help support fibroblasts which are responsible for the production of collagen and elastin and the organisation and optimisation of the extracellular matrix (ECM). Fibroblasts also help the cells in your skin recover from injury from the sun or other external aggressors. Much like growth factors, fibroblasts can age. However, when using SCA Biorepair on photodamaged skin or mature skin, fibroblasts proliferate at a much higher rate. This can help promote healing after photodamage or aesthetic procedures. The antioxidant properties in SCA also help to inhibit free radical damage to the skin while hyaluronic acid helps to boost skin’s moisture levels.
