Core Mechanisms of Action
🩸 Medical Hemostasis
◆
Antifibrinolytic Effect: It competitively inhibits the adsorption of plasminogen onto fibrin, preventing its activation into plasmin. Simultaneously, it directly inhibits plasmin activity, protecting fibrin from degradation and achieving potent hemostasis.
◆
Anti-inflammatory / Anti-edema: It inhibits plasmin-mediated activation of the complement system (C1), reducing the release of inflammatory mediators. This mechanism is utilized in the treatment of hereditary angioedema.
✨ Skincare & Whitening
◆
Inhibition of Melanogenesis: It blocks signal transduction between melanocytes and keratinocytes and inhibits tyrosinase activity, thereby reducing melanin synthesis through multiple pathways.
◆
Improvement of Hyperpigmentation: It inhibits angiogenesis and alleviates post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH), showing significant efficacy against melasma, acne marks, and age spots.
◆
Repair & Soothing: It improves skin barrier function and reduces redness and sensitivity, being mild and non-irritating.
🧴 Applications in Daily Chemical & Skincare
◆
Whitening & Spot Reduction: Incorporated into serums, creams, and masks to target melasma, sun spots, acne marks, and dull complexion.
◆
Repair & Soothing: Formulated in products for sensitive and redness-prone skin to improve inflammation and vascular abnormalities.
◆
Anti-aging & Brightening: Combined with antioxidant ingredients to enhance skin transparency and radiance.
