Antioxidant Protection

In an in-vivo assessment using solar-simulated light, SkinCeuticals reports that Phloretin CF Gel provided the same high level of protection against UV-induced oxidative damage as the Phloretin CF liquid serum.

This finding relates to antioxidant defence against oxidative damage. Phloretin CF Gel is not a sunscreen and must always be followed with a tested broad-spectrum sunscreen.

Visible Skin Results

In a manufacturer-reported 12-week clinical study involving men and women aged 40–60, Phloretin CF Gel was reported to produce:

A 30% reduction in the appearance of fine lines
A 25% improvement in visible skin texture
A 38% reduction in dullness and discolouration

The publicly available summary does not provide the participant number, control method, complete protocol or statistical analysis. These results should therefore be described as manufacturer-reported finished-product outcomes rather than independent clinical findings.
