Findings

After 12 weeks of daily use, 45% of participants saw at least one grade of wrinkle improvement, and nasolabial folds (those lines between nose and mouth) noticeably reduced in depth and volume. Skin elasticity increased significantly, and no allergic reactions or dryness occurred—though about half the group saw improvements, meaning results aren't guaranteed for everyone.
