Leontopodium Alpinum Callus Culture Extract

This ingredient (LACCE) is a plant cell derived from the alpine plant, edelweiss. It is a humectant with antioxidant and skin protecting properties.

In-vitro and in-vivo research shows LACCE to exhibit strong antioxidant effects, including protecting skin against UVB induced stress. It also appears to support collagen production, improved skin elasticity, and wrinkle reduction.

Clinical application in humans shows topical use of LACCE can improve periorbital wrinkles (around the eyes), dermal density, and skin elasticity.

Cellular studies also suggest potential anti-inflammatory effects and upregulation of genes associated with barrier formation.

As with many plant extracts, a small number of people may experience sensitivity due to allergies.
