Endocare Science
Cantabria Labs, as a pharmaceutical company, invests a high percentage (12%) of its turnover in research to ensure maximum scientific efficacy and rigour.
Endocare efficacy has been scientifically proven over 20 years of clinical research. It has extensive scientific support with various studies and numerous publications published in leading international medical journals. Evidence demonstrates an innovative and serious approach in the treatment of skin aging.
Technologies and Ingredients
IFC® CAF Skin Stem Activation
Growth capability is a system's ability to scale and adapt, meeting increasing demands and evolving needs for long-term success.
SCA® Growth Factor Technology
Highly regenerative patented technology rich in growth factors that repairs skin and stimulates cell activity, promoting firmness and elasticity.
Wharton Gel Complex®
Patented technology which promotes the production of hyaluronic acid and other skin components to achieve greater density and a filling effect.
EDAFENCE® Powerful Anti-pollution Defence
Patented anti-pollution technology that prevents damage from pollution, including dark spots. Recent studies have shown that pollution is one of the main causes of hyperpigmentation (oxidising agents, tobacco smoke, heavy metals, urban pollutants, etc.).
EDAFENCE®
RetinSphere® Technology
It breaks the boundaries of anti-oxidation, combatting pollution 92% of the population is subject to the impact of environmental pollution. The skin, being our first line of defence, is constantly under attack from these environmental pollutants that cause skin aging, hyperpigmentation, etc.
After years of research with the aim of combatting these effects on the skin, Cantabria Labs has developed an extraction procedure of the active ingredients contained in the leaves of Deschampsia antarctica, which allows the preservation of its biological activity.
Deschampsia antarctica
Deschampsia antarctica is a grass native to Antarctica subjected to extreme environmental conditions. The vital need of this grass to combat these environmental stressors has forced it to develop defence mechanisms that act molecularly in the skin against the effects of pollution and have been demonstrated by different clinical trials.
Cantabria Labs has launched a plantation in Uruguay optimised by hydroponics and has developed a process of extraction of the active ingredients, which allows the preservation of its biological activity.
Proven efficacy
In the chemical composition of EDAFENCE®, it is important to highlight the presence of luteolin and apigenin derivatives, two flavonoids well known for their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity. Thanks to these components, EDAFENCE® helps protect the skin against pollution by achieving the following benefits:
It protects against tobacco smoke and urban pollutants
EDAFENCE® has been shown to reduce the damage that tobacco smoke and urban pollutants can cause to the users’ skin fibroblast cells.
Preventing hyperpigmentations and dark spots on the skin
Activation of the AhR receptor (Aryl-hydrocarbon) is closely related to the appearance of hyperpigmentations and dark spots on the skin. EDAFENCE® has demonstrated blocking of this receptor.
It improves skin barrier function
EDAFENCE® combats the damage caused by contaminants in the skin barrier while maintaining levels of loricrin, a protein related to the proper functioning of the skin barrier
Antioxidant activity
Our technology protects against free radical aggression and maintains fibroblast survival and even improvement.
SCA® Growth Factor Technology
Origin and Development
It was born from the concern of Dr. Rafael Abad, radiotherapist of the Hospital Ramón y Cajal, for his patients undergoing radiation therapy. These patients suffered very severe burns during radiation therapy treatment.
After various studies Dr. Abad discovered that the secretion of Cryptomphalus aspersa achieved rapid regeneration in the damaged skin of these patients.
In the mid 1990s, Cantabria Labs patented the process of obtaining this secretion and promoted the realisation and publication of numerous studies that demonstrated their scientific endorsement in the field of repair and improvement of damaged and aged skin.
Cryptomphalus aspersa
Cryptomphalus aspersa reacts to aggressions by producing a complex glycoprotein secretion, called SCA® Growth Factor Technology, which enables the regeneration of damaged skin structures.
Mechanisms of Action
It effectively prevents, protects and repairs skin damage, while providing the skin with powerful regenerating, antioxidant and firming action. SCA® Growth Factor Technology promotes skin rejuvenation by reducing the number and depth of wrinkles, returning firmness and smoothness to the skin and providing extra luminosity.
Antioxidant Activity
The antioxidants contained in SCA® Growth Factor Technology provide skin protection, prevent the appearance of dull tone and reduce skin roughness.
Regenerating activity
SCA® Growth Factor Technology acts on the fibroblast, stimulates its proliferation and corrects its morphology to achieve a multiplier effect that reactivates cells and thus promotes skin rejuvenation.
Redensifying activity
It activates the production of extracellular matrix components such as collagen, essential to combat loss of skin density and reduce wrinkles.
IFC® CAF Technology
Origin and Development
Stem cells are characterised by their ability to renew and differentiate themselves into various types of skin cells including fibroblasts and keratinocytes. During aging, these cells gradually lose their function and die. Their number is reduced and skin loses the ability to repair. In addition, the extracellular membrane, rich in different components such as collagen or elastin, is degraded. As a result, the skin loses density and wrinkles appear.
Our exclusive IFC® CAF Technology was born from the need to address these consequences of aging.
IFC® CAF
Innovative biotechnological extraction of gastropod eggs of the Helicidae family, which are extremely rich in stem cell activator growth factors. This activation promotes constant cell renewal. In addition, it stimulates the production of collagen, elastin and other important structural components of the skin to recover the loss of dermal density.
Mechanisms of Action
IFC® CAF Technology activates skin stem cells and promotes their differentiation into new keratinocytes and fibroblasts, supporting the skin’s natural renewal process and structural integrity. This innovative technology has been shown to combat aging by acting on wrinkles, loss of dermal density and overall skin vitality, restoring a smoother, firmer and more youthful appearance over time.
Stem Cell Activation
IFC® CAF acts on the “origin” of youth of the skin by stimulating the differentiation of stem cells into skin cells and improving the physiology of damaged fibroblasts and keratinocytes.
It increases production of extracellular matrix components
IFC® CAF technology restores density to the skin by stimulating the production of the components of the extracellular matrix (collagen, fibronectin, elastic, hyaluronic acid), while reducing its degradation.
