The science of Matrix Renewal

The biology behind firmer-looking skin.

Matrix Renewal Serum combines a collagen–peptide complex, Copper Tripeptide-1 and dual-weight hyaluronic acid. The Matrix Renewal Micro-Infusion System includes two 5 mL serum vials and two single-use snap-on 24-pin precision applicators.

What “matrix” means

The matrix gives skin its support.

The extracellular matrix is the network around skin cells. Collagen contributes strength, elastic fibres support recoil and hyaluronic acid helps hold water. Together, they influence how firm, smooth and resilient skin looks.

Inside Matrix Renewal

One serum, three complementary roles.

The formula brings together a collagen–peptide complex for the matrix, a separate copper peptide and two molecular weights of water-binding hyaluronic acid.

  1. 01

    Collagen + Octapeptide-52

    The central complex. Its research focuses on signals related to matrix-protein production and on enzymes involved in the breakdown of collagen and elastin.

  2. 02

    Copper Tripeptide-1

    Copper Tripeptide-1 is distinct from the collagen–peptide complex evaluated in the study below. That study does not establish its individual contribution to the formula.

  3. 03

    Dual-weight sodium hyaluronate

    Medium- and high-molecular-weight sodium hyaluronate form the water-binding part of the serum.

  4. 04

    Supporting composition

    Amino acids, niacinamide, adenosine and ascorbic acid complete the disclosed formula.

The research behind the formula

How the central complex performed.

A supplier-provided summary reports a 21-participant, four-week instrumental comparison. Skin elasticity changed more when the collagen–peptide complex was included.

Four-week study

Skin elasticity measured with Cutometer R7

Matched base formulas were compared with and without the collagen–peptide complex using Cutometer R7.

19.20%Reported change with the complex at week four
6.88%Reported change without the complex at week four

The supplier-provided summary reports a p-value below 0.001 for the difference in change. This comparison isolates the central collagen–peptide complex; it does not establish results for the finished Matrix Renewal serum-and-applicator system. Individual results vary.

01 / Measurement

Skin elasticity over four weeks

Cutometer R7 measurements tracked skin elasticity from baseline to week four in 21 participants, according to the supplier-provided study summary.

02 / Laboratory research

Matrix-related laboratory markers

Laboratory work examined markers linked to matrix-protein production and the enzymes that break down collagen and elastin. This research explains how the complex relates to matrix biology.

03 / Formula composition

What is inside Matrix Renewal

The disclosed formula combines the central collagen–peptide complex with Copper Tripeptide-1, two molecular weights of sodium hyaluronate, amino acids, niacinamide, adenosine and ascorbic acid.

Together, the formula and research explain why Matrix Renewal is focused on skin structure, elasticity and hydration.
