The Science Behind Our Products
Topical or oral? Why molecular weight decides whether collagen ever reaches the skin that needs it.
Behind every meaningful health and beauty product is a question worth exploring: what does the science tell us, and how can it guide better product development?
ConCordix® Technology
- Delivery technology,ConCordix® is a patented technology developed by Vitux for producing omega-3 soft chewable gels.
- How it works,The process uses emulsification to create microscopic oil droplets. This increases the surface area available for digestive enzymes to work on, supporting the digestion and absorption of oil-based nutrients.
- Manufacturing,The technology combines oil-soluble and water-soluble nutrients in a soft chewable gel. It supports high nutrient payloads and individually sealed packaging.
- Our approach,At Pharmacode Pharma, we choose delivery technologies according to the formulation. We focus on the role of each technology, ingredient quality, and the requirements of the finished product.
Oral Collagen Science
- Understanding the delivery,Collagen is a structural protein found in the skin. Topical and oral collagen use different delivery routes. Native collagen molecules are too large to pass through the skin barrier into the dermis, while hydrolyzed collagen peptides can be absorbed through the digestive system.
- Our formulation approach,We look at the molecular characteristics of collagen peptides, their suitability for oral delivery, and the evidence behind their use in beauty-from-within formulations.
- Science-led development,At Pharmacode Pharma, we select ingredients based on their purpose, quality, stability, and compatibility within the formula. Our B2B formulations are developed around a clear scientific rationale.
Vitamins in Skin Care
- The role of vitamins,Vitamins and vitamin-related ingredients have different roles in skin care, depending on the ingredient, concentration, and delivery method.
- From ingredient to formulation,Our approach starts with the purpose of each ingredient. Inositol, folic acid, and B vitamins are selected for their role in the formula, while cross-linked hyaluronic acid helps provide hydration.
- Our approach,At Pharmacode Pharma, we focus on ingredient selection, formulation compatibility, and quality. We develop skin care formulas around a defined purpose, combining established ingredients with delivery technologies suited to the finished product.
