3Lab has an interesting new skin product out:
http://www.3lab.com/TL00138.asp
A dual layer capsule, called X50, is the core of
ITD technology.With an inner matrix of poly
(lactide-co-glycolide acid) (PLGA) and an
outter polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) shell.
X50 dual layer capsules are 50 times more
efficient than a regular capsule. Showing a size
distribution between 180 and 400 nm, it allows
X50 to be uptaken by the cells, and to release
the actives into the cytosol.
To lead X50 to cell target, a peptide ligand is
anchored to the outer layer of X50. It will eventually
lead the capsule to a specifical receptor
on the target cell turning the whole structure a
intelligent delivery system, an ITD (Intelligent
targeting device
X50 capsule integrates ITD technology by linking a
palmitoyl heptapeptide to the outter PVA shell of the
capsule. This peptide has affinity for the fibroblast FGF
receptor, so that selectively drives the capsule to the
target cell, where activates its own internalization by
endocytosis and the final release of the encapsulated
material into the fibroblast’s cytosol.

Not sure about the cost..but they also have another meso-type product..you can see the vials are similar to what some other products are like:
http://www.in-cosmeticsasia.com/en/Exhi ... ge-CS-Line The hair one is CS-T. Have a pdf they sent but "The extension pdf is not allowed" here
I'll see if they have more info on it(there's not a whole lot in the pdf)..but I can email it to anyone interested(pm me).

The CS-T/vials product is $7 per vial. It's possible they can be capped and refrigerated(or not) so they can be stretched out for a few treatments if you're doing smaller areas or something. That's what many of us did with some other vial'd products anyway.

Started with the topical/tonic- noticed it had to at least be low in alcohol. Got confirmation that it's now alcohol-free
Did order a shampoo as well..and while it's been awhile since I've used it it does seem improved from before- more gentle. Haven't opened a vial yet...
