The Edit with Bioeffect: How EGF is Turning Back the Clock

1. What is EGF (Epidermal Growth Factor), and why is it a game-changer in skincare?

• • EGF is a growth factor naturally found in the skin that plays a crucial role in cell regeneration, wound healing, and overall skin health. EGF is considered a revolutionary ingredient because it directly supports the skin’s ability to renew and regenerate. Unlike traditional skincare that only targets symptoms, EGF works at the cellular level to rejuvenate skin from within, making it a true game-changer for anti-aging and overall skin vitality.
    
    
  • EGF has many powerful benefits when used topically.
  • It stimulates skin-cell renewal by accelerating the skin´s natural regeneration process, leading to smoother, fresher-looking skin.
  • It reduces signs of aging, especially the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, as EGF boosts the production of collagen and elastin deep within the skin. This also improves skin texture, density, and elasticity.
  • EGF encourages cell turnover that results in a more even and radiant complexion.
  • EGF supports the skin´s natural defense mechanisms, making it more resilient to environmental stressors like UV rays and pollution,
  • Products that contain EGF are often used in post-laser or micro needling treatments because of its healing properties. It’s gentle enough for sensitive skin while still delivering powerful results.

2. How does BIOEFFECT’s plant-based EGF compare to traditional EGF sources?

• BIOEFFECT’s scientists invented a way to produce growth factors, like EGF, in barley using cutting-edge biotechnology to help combat the skin's aging process. The barley plant is the host of our growth factor production, cultivated in a greenhouse in Iceland, powered by geothermal energy, and watered with pure Icelandic water to ensure its highest quality and purity. The growth factors are extracted and purified from the barley seed using bio-guided extraction. This proprietary, multi-sequenced extraction process guarantees that pure, stable, and effective growth factors are incorporated into BIOEFFECT products.
  
  
• With this production method using cutting-edge plant biotechnology, the growth factors are exceptionally pure and safe. There is no risk of contamination or endotoxins. And with that, the BIOEFFECT products are very gentle and well-tolerated – even by the most sensitive skin.
  
  
• By using this highly advanced biotechnology, the growth factors are biocompatible - the skin recognizes them and knows how to utilize them. The growth factors have high purity and can stay active and effective in the formulations, making it a premium, next-generation option for highly effective skincare.

3. How does EGF work to improve skin hydration, firmness, and elasticity?

• • EGF might not be the first ingredient people think of for hydration, but it's a powerhouse when it comes to improving hydration, firmness, and elasticity from the inside out.
    
    
  • EGF enhances the skin’s ability to produce and retain moisture by stimulating the skin cell to produce hyaluronic acid and by stimulating the production of skin proteins that help maintain a strong and healthy skin barrier. EGF also supports cell renewal, which leads to smoother, healthier skin that can hold hydration more effectively. By improving the overall structure of the skin, the TEWL (Trans Epidermal Water Loss) is reduced.
    
    
  • EGF triggers fibroblast activity in the skin, and these cells are responsible for producing collagen, which adds structure and firmness to the skin, and elastin, which gives the skin its ability to “snap back,” resulting in visibly firmer, plumper skin.
    
    
  • As EGF promotes the production of elastin and improves skin cell turnover, the skin cells regenerate more quickly and efficiently, the structural network of the skin is rebuilt, and the skin barrier is reinforced. This all leads to a healthier bounce in the skin.  
    
    

4. How quickly can results be seen when using BIOEFFECT’s EGF-based products?

• • BIOEFFECT EGF products can deliver noticeable results quickly, but like with most skincare, the timelines vary depending on your skin type, the consistency of use, and the product. Within 1-2 weeks, you may see and feel improved hydration, smoother texture and glow, and reduced dryness and flakiness. Your skin may feel softer, more supple, and visibly fresher. After around 4-6 weeks, you may see a reduction in fine lines, increased firmness and bounce, and more even skin tone. Results after 8-10 weeks are usually more defined facial contours due to improved elasticity, sustained collagen production and anti-aging effects, and a stronger, healthier skin barrier.
    
    

5. Can you tell us about the Power line and how each product works together?

• • The BIOEFFECT Power line is designed to be a high-performance anti-aging system that delivers visible results by combining growth factors produced with plant biotechnology with powerful supporting ingredients like barley beta-glucan, niacinamide, and firming peptides. Each product targets a different layer of skin concern, but they’re all designed to work synergistically.
    
    
    
  • BIOEFFECT EGF Power Serum: Deeply firms and smoothens fine lines and wrinkles, improves skin density and elasticity, and reduces hyperpigmentation caused by the sun. The key ingredients are BIOEFFECT EGF and KGF (Keratinocyte Growth Factor), alongside NAG (N-acetyl glucosamine) and hyaluronic acid.  This is the first treatment step – a concentrated dose of pure and effective actives that kickstart collagen and skin regeneration.
    
    

• • BIOEFFECT EGF Power Cream: a rich and nourishing moisturizer to seal in the serum's benefits. It firms and lifts that skin, gives deep hydration, and barrier repair helps restore healthy plumpness. The key ingredients are BIOEFFECT EGF, Oridonin, and Barley Beta-Glucan.  The EGF Power Cream locks in moisture and enhances the performance of the active ingredients while delivering long-lasting comfort and anti-aging benefits.

• • BIOEFFECT EGF Power Eye Cream: a transformative eye cream that addresses multiple signs of aging around the delicate eye area. It reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, firms up and brightens the under-eye area, and reduces puffiness and dark circles.
