Hydrogel Sheet Delivery Systems: AesturaRecent Research Landscape
High molecular weight hyaluronic acid and insoluble actives cannot penetrate the skin barrier effectively without specialized emulsion-based sheet carriers.
What technical problems is Aestura addressing in Hydrogel Sheet Delivery Systems?
Poor Mask Surface Adhesion
(19)evidences
Standard hydrogel matrices lack sufficient physical grip and moisture retention to prevent the sheet from slipping or drying during prolonged skin contact.
High Molecular Weight Penetration
(10)evidences
Large hyaluronic acid polymers fail to bypass the stratum corneum barrier due to their bulky size and high viscosity in gel form.
Active Ingredient Phase Instability
(32)evidences
Insoluble active compounds and oil-phase nutrients undergo phase separation or oxidation when incorporated into aqueous delivery systems.
