AI Has Officially Entered The Skincare Space With The Discovery Of A New Anti-Aging Ingredient

It's rare to hear that a brand-new anti-aging skincare ingredient has been discovered. We're all used to new products that rely on tried-and-true actives like hyaluronic acid, collagen, or retinol. But what if an entirely newly discovered ingredient could be the one that promises to show you maximum results? Recently, Revela released the Fibroquin Essence, a pricey product backed by a brand new ingredient: Fibroquin, per PopSugar.

Revela co-founders Dr. David Zhang and Dr. Evan Zhao were on a mission to discover a brand-new skincare ingredient that promised to provide bouncier skin. "We knew that fibroblasts are deeply involved in collagen production, and that collagen is directly related to plumper, bouncier skin," Dr. Zhang told PopSugar about how the search for this ingredient began. "So, fibroblasts were the main focus of our research." 

The doctors needed to test their possible new ingredient through as many trials as possible, and that's when they sought the help of AI. Instead of having to manually test, the doctors used AI to get through millions of variations of the ingredient, and, within eight months, they were able to present Fibroquin. 

But the question remains: What exactly is Fibroquin, and does it deliver on the promise of bouncier skin?
