Phytomelatonin

Hormones can have a wide variety of profound effects on the skin. Estrogen, progesterone and the androgens have for example been shown to regulate the condition of the skin via multiple mechanisms that can address skin degradation, wrinkles and dryness, and stimulate the development of new skin cells. Phytomelatonin has been shown to have very similar effects in in-vitro trials.

35 years of natural skincare research by Dr. Ferri has culminated in the breakthrough of these creams. From her student days in the 70s, Dr. Ferri has been fascinated by the hormone melatonin and in particular, its counterpart in plants: Phytomelatonin. Through the development of a patented technique to extract Phytomelatonin from plants in 2006; the publication of research in 2019 that showed Phytomelatonin can regulate skin aging; and now with the launch of Phytomelatonin Rich Cream Nutri Lift and Revitalising Body Cream, Dr. Ferri’s fascination has grown into a lifelong quest to understand the role and benefits of Phytomelatonin.

Since the discovery of Phytomelatonin in 1993, Dr. Ferri’s research has shown that it has a fundamental role in plant cells, most notably promoting growth, responding to stressors (such as viruses and UV radiation), delaying biological aging and regulating oxidative processes. Dr. Ferri’s work with her team at the University of Calabria, has shown the same sort of fundamental regulatory activity in human skin cells. Her work shows that Phytomelatonin can significantly affect the viability of skin cells and can re regulate biochemical processes that stressors like age and ultraviolet exposure have knocked out of balance. Imbalances that cause changes that we witness at the tissue level as skin aging.

Yes! As a matter of fact, Dr. Ferri has been awarded the Italian equivalent of a knighthood for her research into the effect of Phytomelatonin on the mediators of skin aging. Dr. Ferri believes that it is only our knowledge of the science of skincare that makes it possible to design products that are so highly effective whilst being so gentle on the skin.

Dr Ferri’s patented extraction technique has been used to obtain a lipophilic Phytomelatonin extract from three alpine plants with particularly high levels of the hormone due to the stressful alpine environment.

Clinical trials show visibly younger-looking skin after 4 weeks, and an even younger looking complexion at 8 weeks. The usual signs of skin aging - wrinkle volume, brown spots, UV spots and visible pores - showed significant decreases; while that feature of younger skin, elasticity, actually increased. At the same time as signs of aging decreasing, the cream also calmed the skin, with red areas and blemishes decreasing significantly. Clinical testing on volunteers who suffer from sensitive skin showed so little ‘reaction’ that this Rich Cream Nutri Lift has also been approved for use on sensitive skin. So, it strongly addresses the visible signs of skin aging, but is remarkably gentle in action.

While this product was originally conceived for those with drier, more mature skin, due to the wide-ranging benefits offered by the formulation, our Phytomelatonin Rich Cream Nutri Lift may be used by almost all skin types. It is also clinically approved for sensitive skin.

Alpine Plant Melatonin (APM) is a patented extract of Phytomelatonin that has been shown to visibly reduce multiple signs of skin aging. For this Rich Cream Nutri Lift Dr. Ferri's patented technique has extracted a lipophilic Phytomelatonin oil from three alpine plants: Avena Sativa (Oat) Kernel Extract, Achillea Millefolium Flower Extract, and Salvia Officinalis (Sage) Leaf Extract.

The Phytomelatonin Rich Cream Nutri Lift is free from parabens, artificial preservatives, phthalates, silicones, fragrance, SLS, SLES, silicones, petrochemicals, TEA, DEA, artificial colours, essential oils, animal-derived ingredients, palm oil and unsustainably sourced palm oil derivatives.

We use a stable form of Vitamin E with antioxidant properties; it strengthens the skin barrier function and has moisturizing benefits.

Start with your cheeks, as they usually need the most hydration. Dab small amounts onto your forehead, nose, chin, and cheeks. Use upward, circular motions to massage the cream into your skin. Avoid pulling or tugging.

Phytomelatonin Rich Cream Nutri Lift is clinically proven to visibly minimize the signs of skin aging in just 4 weeks. This anti-aging effect is even more pronounced with continued use to 8 weeks. We suggest using the product consistently to see the progressive effects.
