Lilac Stem Cells offer complete treatment for oily skin and acne disorders. Syringa vulgaris L., otherwise known as common lilac, has been shown to inhibit 5α-reductase, an enzyme involved in sebum production, as well as decrease the pro-inflammatory chemokine IL-8. In clinical studies, a cream containing 1% of a patented plant stem cell extract reduced lesions in 29 acne patients by 40% in 30 days and showed a significant decrease in inflammation and melanin pigmentation. The active ingredient in the extract, verbascoside, is an effective antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agent. In addition, it has an inhibitory effect on 5-alpha-reductase, an enzyme that plays a role in acne and hair loss.
This PBN Face Serum – Lilac Stem Cell is designed as a plumper for oily and acneic skin.
