DMAE (Dimethylaminoethanol) Firming Active
CAS Number: 108-01-0
DMAE (Dimethylaminoethanol) is a cholinergic precursor to acetylcholine that, when applied topically, improves neuromuscular signaling and muscle tone to produce a visible firming and lifting effect on skin. Clinical studies at 3% demonstrated significant reduction in fine lines, nasolabial folds, and skin laxity after 16 weeks of daily use. It also functions as a membrane-stabilizing antioxidant, protecting cell membranes from lipid peroxidation. Used in firming serums, jawline treatments, and neck creams.
