Presenting anti-aging solution for acne control
“A lot of acne when you’re young also plays a role in preventing skin aging.”
“Prevents skin aging by proliferating beneficial acne bacteria”
Combination of acne food delivery vehicle and skin absorption formulation technology
Next year, commercialize anti-aging technology to increase acne bacteria that are beneficial to the skin.
As you age, acne decreases and your skin ages faster.If you think about it the other way around, if you have a lot of acne, you can think of your skin as being young. Furthermore, the fact that you have a lot of acne even though you are a certain age can be inferred that your skin age is relatively young. Until now, acne was thought of as just an unsightly waste product, but it turns out that it is a substance that affects skin aging.
Kolmar Korea, which is devoted to developing ‘slow-aging’ cosmetics that slows down aging, is attracting attention by being the first in the world to identify the connection between acne bacteria and aging. the concept is that aging can be slowed by increasing beneficial acne bacteria on the skin using proprietary microbiome technology.
Kolmar Korea announced on the 13th that a paper containing research results showing that acne bacteria decrease and the diversity of the overall microbiome genes increases explosively with age was published in the October issue of ‘Microorganisms’, an SCI-level international academic journal. The international academic journal is known to be recognized as a world authority in the field of microbiology research.
Microbiome is a term that combines microbe and ecosystem and refers to microorganisms that live in the body or related genetic data. Recently, microbiome research has been actively conducted in the pharmaceutical, bio, and beauty industries as part of the growth of functional products that utilize beneficial skin bacteria to regenerate the skin and prevent aging.
According to Kolmar Korea, a relationship between acne bacteria and skin aging was discovered through a study conducted on Koreans aged 20 to 29 and 60 to 75 without acne disease. The study is said to have been conducted as a joint project involving Hallym university Hangang sacred Heart Hospital and Kyungpook National University as part of the government’s ‘Development of innovative growth skin health-based technology’ project.
Consequently of the
Based on this research, Kolmar Korea is said to have succeeded in developing a delivery vehicle that can contain ingredients (food for microorganisms) that increase the amount of acne bacteria beneficial to the skin and a formulation technology that allows them to penetrate well.
Kolmar Korea said, “We have confirmed that acne bacteria are not necessarily bad, but that they also help maintain skin health.”
Acne bacteria act as a medium to promote inflammatory acne when a harmful environment is created,such as when pores are clogged or sebum is excessively removed.
In particular, Kolmar Korea confirmed the existence of beneficial acne bacteria that suppress Staphylococcus aureus, known as a harmful bacteria that causes atopy.
An official from kolmar Korea said, “We discovered that skin aging can be improved by increasing or controlling acne bacteria that are beneficial to the skin.

how does Kolmar Korea’s microbiome technology differ from conventional skincare approaches?
interview with Dr. Lee min-Kyu: Microbiome Research Expert at Kolmar korea
Time.news Editor (TNE): welcome, Dr. Lee Min-Kyu! It’s a pleasure to have you here today.The research from Kolmar Korea that links acne bacteria to skin aging is truly groundbreaking. can you give us a brief overview of your findings?
Dr. Lee min-Kyu (Dr. Lee): Thank you for having me! Our research indicates that acne, which is frequently enough viewed negatively, can actually play a crucial role in maintaining youthful skin. We found that as people age, the diversity of beneficial acne bacteria decreases, which corresponds with an increase in skin aging markers. This connection suggests that acne bacteria may have protective qualities that slow down the aging process.
TNE: That’s captivating! It’s a complete paradigm shift. What led the team to explore this intriguing relationship between acne and skin aging?
Dr. Lee: Well, our interest stemmed from existing literature that hinted at the microbiome’s role in skin health. We wondered whether acne, specifically, coudl be more than just a cosmetic concern. Our joint project with Hallym University and Kyungpook National University allowed us to study participants from different age groups and gain insights into their microbiome profiles. The results were enlightening.
TNE: So, how exactly does the presence of acne bacteria help in preventing skin aging?
Dr. Lee: Acne bacteria contribute to a balanced microbiome, which is essential for skin health. They play a role in inhibiting harmful microbes and promoting a favorable environment for skin regeneration. By increasing these beneficial bacteria on the skin, we believe it can help mitigate the markers of aging, allowing the skin to retain its youthful properties longer.
TNE: That makes a lot of sense. Can you tell us more about the technology Kolmar Korea plans to commercialize next year?
Dr.Lee: We’re excited about our upcoming anti-aging solution, which leverages proprietary microbiome technology. This involves a combination of food delivery vehicles designed to nourish beneficial acne bacteria while enhancing skin absorption. The goal is to create a skincare option that actively promotes these bacteria, ultimately leading to healthier, more resilient skin.
TNE: It’s an innovative approach! I imagine this could change the skincare industry substantially. How has the response been from both the scientific community and the public?
Dr. Lee: The response has been overwhelmingly positive. We received importent interest from the scientific community, especially after our study was published in ‘Microorganisms,’ an authoritative journal in microbiology. The public is also intrigued; many are eager to learn about skin health from a microbiome outlook rather than just focusing on traditional beauty standards.
TNE: It seems that this could shift how people perceive acne. Instead of being seen only as a nuisance,it’s valuable for skin health. How do you think this research will impact future skincare products?
Dr. Lee: I believe it will encourage brands to look beyond conventional ingredients and consider the importance of microbiome balance in their formulations. As more consumers become aware of this connection, they’ll likely demand skincare solutions that are rooted in science and promote skin health through beneficial bacteria.
TNE: That’s a promising outlook! Before we wrap up, what advice would you give individuals who struggle with acne but also want to combat signs of aging?
Dr. Lee: I would encourage them to embrace a balanced skincare routine that prioritizes microbiome health. This means using products that support the skin’s natural bacteria, maintaining a healthy diet, and avoiding harsh treatments that disrupt the microbiome. Consulting with a dermatologist educated about microbiome science can also provide personalized insights.
TNE: Thank you, Dr. Lee, for sharing your expertise with us today.We look forward to seeing how this research continues to evolve and impact the skincare industry!
Dr. Lee: Thank you! It’s been a pleasure discussing this exciting field, and I appreciate the prospect to share our findings.
