Senescent Cell Clearance

OS-01 reduces senescence markers (p16INK4a, p21, SA-β-gal) in human skin equivalents. By clearing senescent "zombie cells," it reduces the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) — the cocktail of inflammatory factors that degrades collagen and accelerates aging in neighboring cells.

Epigenetic Age Reversal

OneSkin's published research reports OS-01 reduced the biological (epigenetic) age of skin samples as measured by DNA methylation clocks. The Horvath skin-blood clock showed reduced biological age in OS-01-treated samples compared to controls — a novel endpoint for skincare research.

Skin Barrier Function

Studies demonstrate improved skin barrier function and hydration in OS-01-treated human skin models. Healthier barrier function reduces transepidermal water loss and improves skin resilience against environmental stressors.
