Overview
We’ve set the absolute advantage
Healthy, elastic skin can reflect the body’s internal balance. Scientific evidence shows that processes such as oxidative stress, chronic inflammation, and the gradual decline of structural proteins like collagen can accelerate visible signs of skin aging and weaken skin integrity.1
Centextra® is designed to address these mechanisms from within by combining the well-known benefits of Centella asiatica with advanced Indena Phytosome™ technology.1
At the core of Centextra® lies the power of Centella asiatica, a botanical long recognized for its role in skin physiology. Its key constituents are known to stimulate collagen synthesis, support dermal regeneration, and help reinforce the skin’s structural matrix contributing to improved elasticity and overall skin vitality.1
Centextra® into action
Centextra® is a carefully standardized dry extract of Centella asiatica (L.) Urban, developed to preserve the full spectrum of triterpenoid compounds naturally present in the plant, as confirmed by in-depth phytochemical analyses.
Among these, asiaticoside, madecassoside, asiatic acid, and madecassic acid represent the key biologically active constituents associated with skin health and integrity.2,3 The power of these compounds is fully leveraged thanks to the Indena Phytosome® delivery system, specifically designed for optimized biological and technological performances.
Indena took its research further with several preclinical studies conducted to investigate the biological activity of Centextra®, evaluating its antioxidant properties, its role in supporting a healthy inflammatory response, and its effects on collagen structure and skin regeneration.4
The results demonstrated that Centextra® significantly reduces intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels, restoring them toward physiological values in a dose-dependent manner, while also significantly decreasing IL-6 activity, suggesting a promising role in supporting balanced inflammatory response.4
Moreover, scratch assay models showed that Centextra® promotes cell migration and monolayer repair, leading to a closure rate of approximately 40% after 24 hours. The extract also helped restore collagen levels toward physiological conditions and countered collagen degradation mediated by collagenase activity, supporting the maintenance of dermal structural matrix and skin integrity.4
All of this constitutes evidence of the pleiotropic effect of Centextra®.
To further investigate the extract’s efficacy, a clinical study is currently ongoing to evaluate the effects of Centextra® on skin elasticity and firmness, as well as on skin profilometry parameters.5
