Each patient who seeks the help of a cosmetologist wishes, to one degree or another, to slow down the aging process or reverse it. Scientists are actively working to solve this problem, studying in detail the mechanisms and factors of aging, as well as ways to influence them. To date, it is known that the aging process occurs under the influence of three key factors – genetics (30%), lifestyle (50%) and stress factors (20%). Thus, genes determine how a person ages, only 30%, and the remaining 70% – these are epigenetic factors that we can (and should!) influence. By doing this effectively, you can maximize the youthfulness of the body in general and the skin in particular. In cosmetology, biomimetic peptides are used for this purpose. In the article estet-portal.com Evgenia Baranova – general practitioner, dietician-nutritionist, brand manager of TOTISPHARMA GROUP – talks about the effectiveness of biomimetic peptides in slowing down the aging process of the skin.

Epigenetics: how to reverse the aging process
The regulation of gene expression is carried out under the influence of such epigenetic factors as the level of physical activity, nutrition, external environmental factors and the emotional state of a person. Moreover, their influence can be both positive and negative.
If we talk about the skin, in many cases, cosmetologists have to solve a difficult task – mitigate the consequences:
- physical inactivity;
- unhealthy eating;
- chronic stress;
- the negative impact of the ecology of modern megacities.
Epigenetics is concerned with the study of biochemical reactions and processes that modify the activity of DNA without altering its basic sequence.
What role does epigenetics play in this?
Lifestyle and external stressors trigger reversible changes in DNA that "turn on" and "turn off" certain genes. These changes accumulate over time and disrupt the proper functioning of cells. Deciphering the language of these small chemical changes is the key to preventing and even reversing the aging process, because epigenetic mechanisms are able to regulate the activity of each gene in the same way as dimmer – dimmer for incandescent lamps.
Biomimetic peptides – the newest weapon in the arsenal of the modern cosmetologist
Biomimetic Peptides – signal molecules that are used in modern cosmetology to neutralize negative epigenetic changes and activate their own regenerative potential of skin cells. Specialists of the Spanish pharmaceutical laboratory INNOAESTHETICS, based on the cutting-edge discoveries of molecular biology and epigenetics, have developed a unique line of professional cosmetics with epigenetic components, the anti-age effect of which has been confirmed in numerous scientific studies.
- Chronogen® (Tetrapeptide-26)
This biomimetic peptide aims to increase the expression of clock genes. Proteins of "sentinels" genes such as JARID1a form the circadian rhythm of skin activity. Chronogen® biomimetic peptide (Tetrapeptide-26) is associated with maintenance of expression:
- mPER1 – the main gene underlying the regulation of the circadian rhythm;
- CLOCK and BMAL – transcription factors that regulate the expression of mPER1.
Chronogen® (Tetrapeptide-26) acts on the skin as an anti-stress, anti-age and protective agent.
Chronogen® Biomimetic Peptide helps maintain and synchronize your internal clock skin:
- in the daytime helps to reduce UV-induced damage to DNA cells;
- at night stimulates the processes of repairing damaged DNA and active skin regeneration.
- Urbalys® (Schisandra chinensis extract)
Key effects of this biomimetic peptide:
- increases skin resistance to aggressive stress factors and environmental pollution;
- stabilizes cell membranes and strengthens the epidermal barrier;
- activates endogenous antioxidant defense mechanisms and cellular detox systems.

Urbalys® helps to combat the negative impact of air pollution in modern megacities – free radicals, reactive oxygen species and aeropollutants, providing:
- barrier function restored;
- antioxidant cell protection;
- reduction of inflammatory reactions.
- Detoxiquin® (ice mushroom extract + iron hexapeptide 35)
The biomimetic component Detoxiquin® combines a natural active ingredient (ice mushroom extract) and a synthetic biomimetic peptide (iron hexapeptide 35) capable of:
- increase superoxide dismutase activity;
- minimize lipid peroxidation (oxidative stress);
- reduce damage to DNA and proteins.
The biomimetic component Detoxiquin® neutralizes free radicals that cause intracellular accumulation of oxidative damage.
Thus, Detoxiquin® prevents premature aging of cells and promotes their regeneration.
