DERMCOM is a novel gum arabic based granulate containing an extract from Crocus Chrysanthus Bulb and is able to reverse the aging process by stimulating the communication between skin cells. DERMCOM induces the secretion of growth factors in keratinocytes that enhance the synthesis of collagen and elastin in the dermis. Therefore, thanks to its growth factor-like activity, it is able to rejuvenate the skin matrix. DERMCOM can be incorporated into most formulations as in emulsions and gels. It dissolves easily into the aqueous phase or can be added during the cooling phase below 60°C.
