Método R, the first cosmetic routine with a published efficacy study.
The renowned scientific journal Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology has published a study analyzing the efficacy of the cosmetic routine created by Método R.
The study, titled “Método R: Efficacy of a cosmetic routine consisting of six lipid-encapsulated topical products,” was conducted with 160 volunteers, men and women, aged between 20 and 80, monitored at the Clínica Dermatológica Internacional by doctors Pedro Rodríguez and Ricardo Ruiz and biotechnologists Rebeca Alonso and Daniel Pando.
In the words of our founder, Aline Neumann, this publication marks a milestone: “It is revolutionary in the world of cosmetics for a complete routine to have demonstrated its efficacy through an independent scientific study. It is standard for these types of publications to focus on a single cosmetic product or active ingredient.”
The study was carried out using four different approaches to test and demonstrate the efficacy of Método R across various parameters: a transdermal administration test, an ex vivo efficacy test, the use of comparative photographs of the epidermis, and a satisfaction survey for the volunteers.
During the treatment, 116 out of the 160 volunteer participants responded anonymously regarding parameters such as overall skin quality, dyschromia and/or pigmentation, radiance, and hydration.
Among the conclusions drawn, the following stand out: 76% of respondents considered there to be an improvement in overall skin quality, 66% in pigmentation, 79.5% in radiance, and 83% noted an improvement in their skin's hydration. The complete Método R routine was rated 4.6 out of 5. Similarly, when asked "Would you recommend Método R?", 88% of respondents would recommend the routine to a friend or family member, and 98% would repeat the experience.
The study also objectively demonstrates the results through Visioscan® analysis and the efficacy of the active ingredients used in the laboratory.
The products created by Método R include seven encapsulated ingredients: niacinamide, hyaluronic acid, retinyl palmitate, kojic acid, vitamin K, ethyl ascorbic acid, and panthenol, the efficacy of which is demonstrated in the study published by the Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, which can be read in full via this link.
