NIANCE Unveils Comprehensive White Paper on Combating the 12 Hallmarks of Aging
NIANCE, the esteemed Swiss luxury skin care and wellness pioneer, has released its groundbreaking white paper, "Combating the 12 Hallmarks of Aging." This seminal document delves into the cutting-edge science of aging, elucidating how NIANCE's innovative products target the fundamental biological processes underlying senescence through advanced biotechnology and potent active ingredients.
The 'Hallmarks of Aging' paradigm, initially proposed in 2013 by researchers Carlos López-Otín, Maria A. Blasco, Linda Partridge, Manuel Serrano, and Guido Kroemer, identified nine crucial biological mechanisms driving aging, including genomic instability and mitochondrial dysfunction. In January 2023, Cell published an updated framework incorporating three additional hallmarks: dysbiosis, chronic inflammation and autophagy dysfunction, expanding the total to 12.
NIANCE's white paper meticulously explicates these hallmarks and delineates how the brand's Swiss Glacier Complex, diverse array of active ingredients, and GENR8 supplements specifically target each of the 12 hallmarks to promote skin health and overall vitality. Central to NIANCE's product development is its proprietary FERNESSE biotechnology, which optimizes the bioavailability of over 130 active ingredients utilized in the formulations. FERNESSE ensures optimal absorption of these potent bioactive compounds, enhancing product efficacy and facilitating profound cellular rejuvenation.
"At NIANCE, we are dedicated to pioneering products that transcend superficial signs of aging," stated Marnix Ettema, CEO of NIANCE. "Our research and innovations, encapsulated in this white paper, exemplify our mission to empower consumers in maintaining youthful, radiant skin while supporting their holistic well-being at a cellular level. We believe this publication will elucidate NIANCE's leadership in translating scientific anti-aging breakthroughs into efficacious beauty and longevity solutions."
