Elestan® LS 9913 is an extract of the leaves of the West African Manilkara tree. It provides protection for the collagen and elastin network from enzymatic degradation, inhibits protein glycation, and stimulates the synthesis of numerous extracellular matrix elements. This results in an increase in skin tonicity, firmness, and elasticity, as well as a visible reduction of stretch marks.
