French anti-ageing expert, Filorga is celebrating the tenth anniversary of their best-selling anti-ageing moisturiser, Time-Filler with the launch of a reformulated, enhanced version: Time-Filler 5XP.
The new formulation is specifically designed to treat all five types of wrinkles: expression lines; deep wrinkles; lines caused by dryness; surface wrinkles and neck wrinkles.
In the past 20 years, the demand for non-invasive anti-ageing procedures has increased by 174,6%, led by Botulinum Toxin injections which have increased by 459%*.
With this in mind, Time-Filler – Filorga’s top-selling product of all time – has been boosted with a formula inspired by the five expert aesthetic medicine techniques used to correct all five wrinkle types:
- Expression lines – inspired by Botulinum Toxin injections
- Deep wrinkles – inspired by filler injections
- Surface wrinkles – inspired by skin peels
- Dehydration lines – inspired by revitalising injections
- Neck wrinkles – inspired by tightening threads
Expression lines
Time-Filler 5XP contains a Botulinum Toxin-like tripeptide that inhibits the release of Acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter inside the neurons which is released when a stimulus is received and causes the muscle to contract. This tripeptide limits muscle contractions and relaxes and immediately smoothes out frown lines, crow’s feet and horizontal forehead wrinkles.
Deep Wrinkles
A duo of filler-like active ingredients helps to correct deep wrinkles. A collagen-boosting peptide containing two high-performance matrikines assists with toning and redensifying the skin’s appearance. This is combined with encapsulated hyaluronic acid to penetrate deep into the skin and quickly smooth established lines.
Dehydration Wrinkles
Filorga’s patented NCEF regenerating formula is combined with a powerful, water-retaining plant extract, Imperata cylindrica root extract. This extract captures water and helps to rebuild a water reserve to hydrate the skin and smooth out dehydration wrinkles.
Surface Wrinkles
Inspired by medical antiageing peels, Time-Filler XP contains a peel-like active ingredient, Sea fennel extract. This extract stimulates the multiplication of keratinocytes to thicken and redensify the dermis and helps to eliminate dead surface cells for smoother skin.
Neck Wrinkles
A restructuring plant extract boosts the synthesis of Tenascin-X, a structural protein in the dermis. Ageing causes the Tenascin-X production to decrease, resulting in a disorganised extracellular matrix. The dermal structure loses definition and the skin becomes hollow. Inspired by skin-tightening tensor threads, this new active ingredient reorganises collagen and elastin fibres to tighten the skin on the face and neck.
Commenting on the new boosted Time-Filler 5XP, Filorga’s International Medical Advisor, Dr Riekie Smit says, “Time-Filler has been Filorga’s most impressive and successful anti-ageing consumer product to date. Doctors and patients alike have extolled the virtues of the anti-wrinkle abilities of this powerful cream. In recent clinical trials of the new Time-Filler 5XP, one in two women said they would delay or cancel their skin injections, after viewing the results of a seven-day trial using the product twice a day.** Those results really do speak for themselves.”
