Les modèles cellulaires 3D : un accès puissant à la physiologie cutanée et aux développements innovants de principes actifs cosmétiques

Two different anti-ageing cosmetic actives based respectively, on dermal compartment regeneration and on dermoepidermal reinforcement, have been developed using tissular engineering models. Conjointly use of different innovative three-dimensional models such as reconstructed dermis and skin built with human cells coming from variable aged donors allowed first, a better understanding of matrix modifications due to ageing and second, the screening of active ingredients highly targeted to reverse observed damages. The validity of such three-dimensional models has been then confirmed by in vivo studies on healthy volunteers.
