The present disclosure relates to the field of compositions for cosmetic/medical applications, in detail, the present disclosure relates to a cosmeceutical composition for skin restructuration and revitalization.
The present disclosure further concerns a process for preparing the composition.
Skin revitalization, and in particular skin biorevitalization, is a substantially minimally invasive aesthetic medicine treatment that allows for deeply re-hydrating the skin. Biorevitalization is often applied to the skin of the face, neck, decollete, and hands.
The purpose of the biorevitalization is to allow the skin to obtain back a young aspect, by means of an enhancement of the cutaneous texture.
Biorevitalization promotes the restoration of the balance of the normal skin physiology, reducing wrinkles and allowing the skin to obtain back firmness.
Biorevitalization treatments typically include subcutaneous micro-injections of hyaluronic acid. In many cases, hyaluronic acid is combined with amino acids and vitamins. The purpose of the micro-injections, which are carried out by means of thin needles, is to re-activate the cutaneous metabolism that in turn promotes re-hydration and firmness to the skin.
Biorevitalization treatments promote the production of elastin (a key component of the extracellular matrix that allows the tissues in the body to resume their shape after stretching and contracting), collagen (the main structural protein of the extracellular matrix) and hyaluronic acid, restoring the elasticity of the fibroblasts and protecting the skin from free radicals that are the main cause of cutaneous ageing.
Skin restructuration, and in particular skin biorestructuration, is a treatment that allows the patient to note a reduction of the micro wrinkles of the skin with a temporary lifting-like effect, a more luminous and compact skin and an enhancement of the micro texture of the skin. Skin biorestructuration process re-activates the normal cellular turnover processes by summing biostimulation and bioregeneration.
Biorestructuration takes place principally through type I heterologous collagen microparticles.
Heterologous collagen is indicated in the regeneration of skin tissue and can be used as an adjuvant in skin biorevitalization by promoting the regeneration of connective tissue in the dermis, creating conditions for the physiological neoformation of collagen.
It finds specific indication in the stimulation of the fibroblastic cellular mechanism, with endogenous collagen neoformation responsible for the development of new fibroblasts and, therefore, new filling tissue.
Such collagen is produced by means of an extraction technique that does not cause modification of the native structure of the protein and does not determine chemical cross-linkings. Collagen thus maintains its triple-helical structure and its sequence of polypeptides chains.
It is known the use of collagen compositions e.g. in form of creams or injections for cosmetic purposes, mainly for the purpose of reducing the wrinkles of a predetermined skin area and in such a way to provide firmness.
Injections are typically performed by trained medical doctors or paramedics, typically in medical offices or day hospital or ambulatory structures.

Object of the present disclosure is a cosmeceutical composition comprising relative to the total weight of said composition:
The composition according to the disclosure stimulates the production of elastin, collagen and hyaluronic acid, restores fibroblast elasticity and protects the skin from free radicals (skin aging).
According to a preferred embodiment, the present composition comprises heterologous collagen. Collagen may be extracted from fish, bovine and/or chicken, preferably from costal cartilages of chickens.
According to a particularly preferred embodiment, the present composition comprises hydrolyzed collagen.
Hydrolyzed collagen is obtained by making type I native collagen (undenatured collagen) undergo a process of thermal, acid, alkaline or enzymatic hydrolysis; such process allows to reduce the collagen in protein fragments of a lower molecular weight.
By means of the hydrolysis, the long chains of the collagen are reduced in smaller particles. These particles, or fragments, are defined biomimetic since they simulate the degradation action of polymerized collagen, massively stimulate fibroblast and pro-collagen deposit and, consequently, stimulate type Ill endogenous collagen, substantially eliminating the risk of allergies.
In this way, the behavior of the peptide chains which are part of the collagen is enhanced, and a better cutaneous absorption of said peptide chains is thereby achieved.
At the skin level, hydrolyzed collagen helps to maintain and improve the firmness, tone, and skin turgor while minimizing and improving the presence of wrinkles.
According to a preferred embodiment, said collagen is type I collagen. Applicant notes that anyway said collagen may be, alternatively or in combination, type II and/or type III collagen.
Type I collagen is the collagen that is present in the skin, tendons and bone tissue, and is the collagen type that is most easily recognizable by human immune system.
Type I collagen contributes to keep and increase the compactness, tonicity, firmness of the skin, and thus reduces the presence of wrinkles.
Type II collagen may be of a native type and may be suitable to stimulate fibroblasts to create new tissues; thus native collagen may be capable of exerting a relevant biorestructuration activity.
Type Ill collagen is the second most abundant collagen of soft tissues and dominates early phases of wound healing and granulation tissue formation.
Applicant notes that skin is composed of about 80% of type I collagen, responsible of force and integrity of the skin; the remaining 20% is type Ill collagen, which is responsible for skin stretching.

The aforementioned elements are mixed together in a mixer by means of any between a substantially automated process or a manual process, up to the moment at which a powder mixture is obtained.
Subsequently the method comprises the addition of saline solution, in an amount sufficient to obtain the above-disclosed ranges or precise amounts. The addition of saline solution determines obtaining, at first a non-uniform fluid mixture that is subsequently mixed again.
A further subsequent mixing step therefore takes place, for obtaining a substantially uniform liquid that corresponds to the cosmeceutical composition, with no significant solid residual part that may clog the needle of a syringe. It may be noted that the composition can be injected through needles with gauges down to 33 or 34; solid residual parts may therefore be carefully avoided.
The so obtained liquid final cosmeceutical composition is then optionally filtered and introduced, preferably in a controlled atmosphere environment, in containers. It is not necessary to use light-attenuating (e.g. brown, green) glass or plastic vessels.
The composition so obtained may be introduced in a sterile container.
In an embodiment, which is non-limiting, the container is an injection-ready container.
An injection-ready container may be provided with a sealing stopper, which is preferably of a self-sealing type. The stopper is pierceable, and in particular is configured and specifically destined to be pierced by a needle, in particular by a needle of a syringe.
For the purposes of the present disclosure, for “self-sealing” shall be intended a cap that, once pierced by a needle, in particular a needle of a syringe, and once such needle is extracted, in particular fully extracted, by said cap, closes automatically without any substantial intervention of a user.
In particular a plastic and/or rubber stopper, suitable to allow the penetration of the needle of a syringe without subsequently spilling any residual liquid that may be present in the composition. The container may be a single-dose vial or a multi-dose vial. The container may be preferably a depyrogenated container.
Thus, in an embodiment the method comprises collecting a single-dose amount of the liquid final composition into the container. In an alternative embodiment the method comprises collecting a multi-dose amount of the liquid final composition into the container.
A single-dose amount of the liquid final composition may be, for instance, a dose sufficient to fill substantially a 0.5 ml syringe, or a 1 ml syringe, or a 2 ml syringe, or a 3 ml syringe or a 5 ml syringe.
A multi-dose amount of the liquid final composition may be, for instance, an amount of 10 ml or more.
In an embodiment, such container is a syringe, in particular a disposable syringe. This allows the medical doctor or any practitioner to implement the treatment without performing the action of perforating the pierceable sealing cap of the container with an additional syringe.
The advantages of the composition herewith disclosed are clear in view of the above description. The composition is substantially natural, has proven to be well tolerated also by sensitive patients, the composition, when injected, determines limited side effects as swelling or bleeding or itching. The composition substantially determines an immediate, prolonged, and effective firmness of the skin. In particular, when Ginkgo Biloba leaf extract is present, a temporary effect of redness in the skin is the result of a relevant oxygenation of the skin in the area surrounding the injection site.
The herewith disclosed composition is easy to manufacture and may be produced in a cost-effective way.
Several adaptations or additions can be carried out to the object of the present disclosure without for this departing from the scope of protection provided by the annexed claims.
