Mountain View – – September 18, 2026 -- Yuvan Research Inc. has introduced NEEL Gel, a skincare product built around GHK-Cu, a copper peptide the company says restores collagen in aging skin rather than temporarily masking wrinkles.

Dr. Michael Snyder says the gel is the only skincare product he uses besides moisturizer

Snyder, Stanford's W. Ascherman Professor of Genetics and director of its Center for Genomics and Personalized Medicine, has used NEEL for more than two years. In a company-produced video, he says small wrinkles "disappeared rather quickly" while larger wrinkles are diminishing more slowly. NEEL's website describes him as looking 25 years younger than his chronological age.

Secaucus, N.J. – September 18, 2026 -- Avène, the sensitive-skin brand owned by Laboratoires Pierre Fabre, is running its third annual Dermfluencer University, a training program that teaches board-certified dermatologists how to create science-backed skincare content for social media and AI-powered search.

The program is hosted at the Science of Skin Summit, an educational event founded by Dr. Patricia Farris and Dr. Ted Lain focused on dermatology research and innovation. It gives dermatologists tools and training to produce engaging online content aimed at consumers who now search for skin advice on social platforms and AI tools before booking a doctor's appointment.

Researchers tested 32 participants using a split-face design.

Each participant underwent fractional laser treatment, then had the Real Deep Mask applied to one half of the face while the other half remained untreated, allowing direct comparison under identical conditions. Board-certified dermatologists Dr. Luke Maxfield and Dr. Christopher Tomassian presented the results.

Eighty-nine percent reported an improvement in the appearance of fine lines, while 83% said their skin felt firmer and 81% reported their skin felt more elastic and less loose or sagging.

Chicago – September 10, 2026 -- A new sun care brand is betting that consumers are tired of choosing between chalky mineral sunscreens and products packed with unrecognizable chemicals. Sunsei has launched with a two-product lineup built around just 17 ingredients, all free of synthetic UV filters.

Sunsei uses non-nano zinc oxide instead of chemical UV filters

The brand's formulas center on non-nano zinc oxide combined with plant-derived ingredients including sweet almond oil, green tea extract and shea butter. Sunsei markets the products as 100% mineral-active, paraben-free and free of the white residue often associated with zinc-based sunscreens.

Fayetteville, N.C. – September 08, 2026 -- A professional facial can leave skin smoother and brighter within minutes, but how long that glow survives depends almost entirely on what happens in the days after, according to esthetician Valen Perez of Picture Perfect Esthetics LLC in Fayetteville, NC.

Perez, featured in a HelloNation article on post-facial care, explains that treatments involving exfoliation, extractions, enzymes, and professional serums leave skin more active immediately afterward. Circulation and cell turnover rise, aiding renewal, but the skin barrier also becomes temporarily more sensitive.

Mild redness and warmth after a facial are normal, not a warning sign

The article notes that temporary sensitivity, warmth, or slight redness are expected reactions. Proper aftercare keeps these normal responses from turning into actual irritation, shifting the focus from correction to protection and repair.
