Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Provided is a composition for improving wrinkles including a high-content/sustained-release retinoid capsule. The high-content/sustained-release retinoid capsule according to the presently claimed subject matter can minimize skin side effects and maximize wrinkle improvement effects by significantly increasing the retinoid content in the capsule and stability and controlling the release rate.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A core-shell structured retinoid capsule particle comprising a solid lipid shell; and a liquid lipid core, wherein the liquid lipid core comprises a retinoid and an amine compound, wherein the amine compound is one or more selected from the group consisting of stearylamine, benethamine, hexylamine, heptylamine, octylamine, chlorohexylamine, chloroheptylamine, chlorooxylamine and benzylamine, wherein the amine compound is comprised both in the solid lipid shell and the liquid lipid core, wherein the content of the retinoid is 1 to 20% by weight based on the dry weight of the retinoid capsule particle, and the content of the amine compound is 0.2-50 moles per 1 mole of the retinoid, and wherein the retinoid capsule particle is synthesized by an emulsification process under the condition of low pressure of 0.001 to 0.5 atm and high temperature of 50 to 90° C. 2. The retinoid capsule particle according to claim 1 , wherein the retinoid is one or more selected from the group consisting of retinol, retinal, retinoic acid and a retinoid derivative. 3. The retinoid capsule particle according to claim 1 , wherein the retinoid is released from the retinoid capsule particle in a sustained manner. 4. The retinoid capsule particle according to claim 1 , wherein the retinoid capsule particle has a Polydispersity Index (PDI) value of 0.3 or less, measured by using a dynamic light scattering (DLS) device. 5. A composition for improving wrinkles comprising the retinoid capsule particle according to claim 1 . 6. The composition for improving wrinkles according to claim 5 , wherein the composition is a cosmetic composition. 7. A method for improving skin wrinkles, comprising applying the cosmetic composition according to claim 6 to skin of a subject in need thereof. 8. The retinoid capsule particle according to claim 1 , wherein the retinoid is ion-bonded with the amine compound.
