Botanical Extract Personal Care Composition for Skin Aging
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
There is a need for personal care compositions that effectively regulate the condition of mammalian keratinous tissues, such as skin, hair, and nails, by addressing issues like skin wrinkling, uneven skin tone, and hyperpigmentation associated with aging and environmental damage.
Innovation Solution
The use of personal care compositions containing botanical extracts like Ficus benghalensis and other skin care actives, which are dermatologically acceptable, to improve skin tone, reduce wrinkles, and lighten skin tone, combined with a dermatologically acceptable carrier and potentially energy delivery devices for enhanced application.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If conventional personal care products are used, then basic skin care functions are provided, but they fail to effectively regulate keratinous tissue condition and address aging-related issues
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines multiple botanical extracts (Ficus benghalensis, Terminalia bellerica, Butea monosperma) with specific skin care actives (vitamins, peptides, antioxidants) to create a composite composition that addresses multiple skin concerns simultaneously. This composite approach enables the product to regulate keratinous tissue condition while addressing aging, pigmentation, and texture issues.
Solution Approach 2:
The personal care composition is designed to perform multiple functions: improving skin tone, reducing wrinkles, treating hyperpigmentation, and protecting against environmental damage. This multi-functional formulation allows a single product to address various skin concerns that would otherwise require multiple separate products.
2Reliability
If botanical extracts are used to improve skin condition, then therapeutic benefits are achieved, but product complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent specifies precise concentration ranges for each botanical extract and skin care active (e.g., Ficus benghalensis at 0.01-10%, Terminalia bellerica at 0.01-10%). By controlling these parameters, the complex composition is optimized to deliver therapeutic benefits while maintaining manufacturing feasibility and product stability.
3Adaptability or versatility
If multiple skin care actives are combined to address various skin issues, then versatility improves, but manufacturing complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent defines specific concentration ranges for each ingredient (e.g., vitamins at 0.0001-50%, peptides at 0.0001-20%, antioxidants at 0.01-20%) that balance versatility with manufacturing feasibility. These parameter specifications enable manufacturers to produce the multi-functional product using standard cosmetic manufacturing processes.
