Skin aging is one of most visible ageing process which occurs constantly
in our skin organ. According to the Clinical Centre of Nis, certain
plant extracts may have the ability to scavenge free radicals, to
protect the skin matrix through the inhibition of enzymatic degradation,
or to promote collagen synthesis in the skin, affect skin elasticity
and tightness(a). Other suggested that free radicals induced domino
effects in production of reactive oxygen species, can react with DNA,
proteins, and fatty acids, causing oxidative damage and impairment of
antioxidant system, leading injuries damage regulation pathways of
skin, including wrinkles, roughness, appearance of fine lines, lack of
elasticity, and de- or hyperpigmentation marks(b).
The degradation of the epidermal and dermal layers of the extracellular
matrix (ECM), the non-cellular component present within all tissues and
organs, such as UV Exposure, decline of lysosomal/endosomal cathepsin K,
S and V activity(c) as well as environment factors such as irregular
dryness, dark/light pigmentation, sallowness, severe atrophy,
telangiectases, premalignant lesions, laxity, leathery appearance and
deep wrinkling, etc., cause modification of the surface of skin
and the physical properties of that lead to skin aging. Certain foods
have been found to be effective in protect the skin against natural
aging, including green tea and garlic.
Grape is a woody vines of the genus Vitis, belong to the family Vitaceae, native to southern Turkey.
Trans-resveratrol, a polyphenol extracted from grape, showed a remarkable improvement in decreased aging signs(18). In facial skin morphology and functionality, combination of grape
seed extract and soy phospholipids showed to have the potential in
induced signal transduction pathways in facial hypodermis, resulting in
anti-aging effects throughout all skin
compartments, including dermal and epidermal layers(19). Clinically and
biometrically, composition of lycopene, acerola extract, grape
seed extract and Biomarine ComplexT showed to increase parameters of
cutaneous hydration, reduction of pH, ultrasound density and a
histological increment of collagen and elastic fibers (both on the face
and arm), through a reduction of seborrhea (only on the face)(20).
