Scientific Results

Clinical Study Results

All 37 Actives products are based on Nobel Prize winning science and rigorously tested by the most highly regarded third party testing laboratories.

37 Extreme Actives high performance anti-aging cream

Dr. Macrene was inspired by Nobel Prize-winning work conducted over decades on DNA repair molecules that serve to protect the skin from the damage that causes skin aging and skin cancer. This science, performed by Drs. Thomas Lindahl, Paul Modrich, and Aziz Sancar who received the award in 2015, was the basis of one of the major categories of sea and plant-derived actives liposomally-delivered in 37 Actives. Always ahead of the field, Dr. Macrene recognized the genius of these discoveries and patented 37 Actives to deliver these and many other classes of ingredients with a total of 50 mainly plant-derived actives that address all the aspects of skin health. 

Third-Party Clinical Laboratory Testing

37 Extreme Actives was tested in clinical trials, using objective tools designed to quantitatively measure changes in the multiple categories of cosmetic skin aging at 4, 6, and 8 weeks of daily use. The results demonstrated statistically significant decreases in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, the appearance of cosmetic blotches, and improvement in texture and skin tone using objective clinical measures by computer analysis. Not one case of irritation was observed, demonstrating excellent tolerability in all skin types.

Post-Manufacture Testing 

37 Actives is the first cosmetic cream to conduct post-market testing of the activity of the actives, shown to maintain 100% antioxidant activity to 6 months after jar opening and to maintain virtually all of actives at original levels up to 3 years post-manufacture (see below).

The actives in this highly advanced cream are the culmination of the very best scientific research from the lab, proven to also work on a clinical level, so that this one pot delivers results in all aspects of skin health, and systematically helps address the appearance of the many cosmetic changes of the skin over time without toxins.

Competitors lose 50% of their antioxidant capability at 6 months and some creams have no actives, only preservative left at 1 year.


Safety

A third party laboratory tested the product for safety, showing not a single irritation reaction in any patient across the 35 subject study.

Competitors lose 50% of their antioxidant capability at 6 months and some creams have no actives, only preservative left at 1 year.
