EXP5 Protexidine: Ushering A New Era in Sun Protection and Skin Repair
DESCRIPTION
Harmful UV rays are the root cause of visible skin discoloration and aging, which generate Reactive Oxygen Species [ROS], a subset of free radicals, ultimately triggering unwanted conditions such as premature aging, sagging, wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, and even skin cancer. In this session you will learn about a patented and proprietary biomimetic decoy molecule, ProteXidine™2, that enhances the skin's innate ability to manage UV induced damage and inhibit the production of ROS. TOPIX Pharmaceuticals, Inc., in partnership with the University of Minnesota, Center for Drug Design, via Naiem Issa, MD, PhD, FAAD, will present the results of nearly a decade of research. This late breaking research and ongoing scientific trials marks a breakthrough in antioxidant technology to prevent premature aging.
