THE WHAT? AmorePacific has teamed up with artificial intelligence-based start-up Asleep to verify the performance of skincare products capable of helping users sleep properly, according to Aju Daily.
THE DETAILS Asleep is a domestic health start-up that specializes in AI-based sleeping solutions for breathing while asleep.
AmorePacific is aiming to utilize Asleep’s personalized sleep diagnosis technology, hoping to gain scientific evidence for beauty products that assist good sleeping if they put them on before going to bed.
Asleep has a Wi-Fi-based device that measures the respiratory rate and how much a user tosses and turns in bed.
THE WHY? Taking to a statement, Amorepacific’s research and innovation center head Park Young-ho said, “We will further strengthen research on sleeping beauty products and develop innovative products in many different fields such as health foods and cosmetics.”
Injectable aesthetics are popular due to their ability to provide noticeable results with minimal downtime compared to surgical procedures. They are versatile and can be tailored to meet individual aesthetic goals, whether it's enhancing lips, restoring facial volume, or smoothing out wrinkles. However, they should always be administered by qualified professionals to ensure safety and achieve optimal results.
Injectable aesthetics are used to enhance facial features, reduce the signs of aging, and improve overall facial symmetry and appearance.
Key types of injectable aesthetics include:
-
Dermal Fillers: These injectables are used to add volume, fill in wrinkles and folds, and enhance facial contours. They often contain substances like hyaluronic acid, collagen, or calcium hydroxylapatite, which help plump up the skin and smooth out fine lines and wrinkles.
-
Botulinum Toxin (Botox): Botulinum toxin injections temporarily relax facial muscles that cause wrinkles and lines to form. It is commonly used to treat forehead lines, frown lines between the eyebrows, and crow's feet around the eyes.
-
Collagen Stimulators: These injectables stimulate the body's own collagen production, helping to improve skin texture and firmness over time. Examples include poly-L-lactic acid (Sculptra) and calcium hydroxylapatite (Radiesse).
-
Neurotoxin Injections: Besides Botox, other neurotoxins such as Dysport and Xeomin are used similarly to reduce wrinkles and lines.
