BENEFITS OF ASTAXANTHIN FOR THE SKIN.

Astaxanthin is a powerful antioxidant that helps protect cells from free radical damage. It also has anti-inflammatory properties, which means it can help reduce redness and irritation associated with sunburn or conditions like rosacea.

Due to its powerful antioxidant properties, astaxanthin can be helpful in preventing age spots, reducing wrinkles, and helping to keep skin looking younger. It can also be helpful for those suffering from sun poisoning (erythema) due to radiation therapy.

Astaxanthin's anti-inflammatory properties can even help improve acne, prevent eczema flare-ups, or reduce dryness.

Astaxanthin is often found in products that are marketed as anti-aging treatments because it binds with collagen to help keep skin smooth and firm.

Studies have shown that natural astaxanthin reduces UVB-induced inflammation, probably through the NF-kB kinase-dependent pathway. The less stressed the skin is, the better.

Natural astaxanthin was also found to aid in skin renewal by minimizing the effects of ROS (reactive oxygen species) and thereby reducing wrinkle formation and loss of elasticity.

In turn, natural astaxanthin increases collagen production in skin fibroblasts, the most abundant cell in the dermis layer of the skin, by increasing the phosphorylation of Smad3 (protein). Collagen is a protein necessary for the health of the skin and connective tissue (the supporting structure in the body). It is important for supporting blood vessels, muscle fibers, and tendons; it is also necessary for wound healing.
