To determine the effect of Activation Mist (AM) on skin wrinkles and appearance.
This study aims to study the effects of Activation Mist ( AM) on skin wrinkles. It contains a proprietary blend of minerals and nutritional supplements which is patented as "Liquidized Infrared Negative Ion Activation Energy". Active ingredients include sodium bicarbonate, potassium bicarbonate, sodium carbonate, strontium carbonate, gold nanoparticles, calcium, germanium, selenium , zinc, sugar and water. When applied to the skin , it has been shown to reduce the appearance of wrinkles by stimulation of skin fibroblasts to produce new collagen while removing aging dermis cells, facilitate the production of fibrillin proteins and protect the skin from ultraviolet rays.

| Silicone skin replica analysis | Silflo â„¢ vinyl silicone ( Cuderm Corp.) is applied to the skin areas to be studied and replicas obtained after letting it stand for 3- 5 minutes. The replica technique takes a negative copy of the skin surface which is analyzed by optical profilometry. Optical profilometry ( BioNet Inc.) uses light intensity to assess skin wrinkle texture by objective parameters ( e.g. spacing, breadth, shadows, num wrinkles) This will be performed before and after 8 weeks of treatment. | before and after 8 weeks of treatment |
