Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF)

It was mainly used in the early treatments for severely burnt skin. It is now produced by a genetic engineering process using a bacterium called E. Coli.

EGF is a highly efficient cell division factor with many biological effects. It can stimulate the growth and proliferation of skin, and accelerate the healing process of damaged epidermis. Local application of EGF can be used for damaged skin in surgery, burns, or accidents.

As an anti-aging ingredient, it reduces and prevents wrinkles by actively generating new skin cells. The new skin cells appear as more youthful and vibrant.
