Anti-Aging Skin Composition for Hyaluronic Acid and Matrix Rebuilding

Resolve Bottlenecks,
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions

Solution Overview

Problem

Current skincare products do not effectively address the signs of aging, including fine lines, wrinkles, and loss of skin resilience, and may have irritating effects.

Innovation Solution

A combination of Centella asiatica stem cells, tetradecyl aminobutyroylvalylamino butyric urea trifluoroacetate, and tripeptide-1, or Alpinia galanga leaf extract, promotes the production of hyaluronic acid and synthesis of fibronectin and laminin in the skin, revitalizing and rebuilding the skin matrix.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If current skincare products are used, then skin care is provided, but they do not effectively address aging signs and may have irritating effects

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveeffectiveness in addressing aging signsVSAvoidskin irritation

Core Design Contradiction:

ReliabilityVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent employs a composite formulation combining multiple active ingredients (peptides, plant extracts, hyaluronic acid, antioxidants) in specific concentrations to achieve synergistic anti-aging effects while minimizing irritation. This composite approach allows the composition to address multiple aging signs simultaneously without the harmful effects of harsh individual ingredients

Inventive Principle:

Principle #40Composite materials

2Shape

If deep lines and wrinkles are treated, then appearance is improved, but skin matrix degradation continues

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveappearance of deep lines and wrinklesVSAvoidskin matrix degradation

Core Design Contradiction:

ShapeVSStability of the object's composition

Solution Approach 1:

The composition includes ingredients that prevent further matrix degradation before visible aging occurs. Antioxidants and stabilizing agents protect collagen and elastin from breakdown, while peptides stimulate pre-collagen and pre-elastin production to maintain matrix integrity before deep wrinkles form

Inventive Principle:

Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent changes the biochemical parameters of skin by stimulating the production of hyaluronic acid, collagen, and elastin while inhibiting hyaluronidase activity. This shifts the balance from degradation to regeneration, improving both appearance and structural stability

Inventive Principle:

Principle #35Parameter changes

3Volume of stationary object

If skin volume is restored, then youthful appearance is achieved, but product complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveskin volumeVSAvoidproduct formulation complexity

Core Design Contradiction:

Volume of stationary objectVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The composition uses multi-functional ingredients that perform multiple roles simultaneously. For example, certain peptides stimulate both collagen production and hyaluronic acid synthesis, while plant extracts provide both moisturization and antioxidant protection. This reduces the need for separate products while achieving comprehensive volume restoration

Inventive Principle:

Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)
