XPolar®: mastering collagen analysis for anti-aging efficacy by Kamax via ZOOM#31
9 October 2024
XPolar® technology is highly relevant for assessing both the preventive and curative effectiveness of anti-aging treatments.
It enables two key approaches: preserving the structural state of dermal collagen against various stresses (such as chemical, UV, and pollution) to validate protective claims, and improving collagen structure through treatment, supporting claims related to anti-aging and anti-wrinkle effects.
The XPolar® offers visually impactful and marketing-friendly qualitative images along with quantitative measurements. The K-index aggregates parameters indicating collagen quality (native or altered fibers) and collagen network density (presence or absence of fibers). This versatile method applies to formulation screening, dose-response effects, and more, in collaboration with CROs and labs on skin or explant models.
