Nissha Co., Ltd. (hereinafter, “Nissha”) is set to exhibit at Cosmetic 360, the international trade fair for cosmetics to be held in Paris on October 17 and 18, 2018. Nissha will exhibit its Microneedle 2.0, a next-generation skincare technology.

Standard microneedle patches made using microneedle technology are made from active ingredients shaped into microscopic needles ranging from a few dozen to a few hundred μm in size that are processed into patches to allow them to be applied to the skin. This technology has gained attention in recent years within the pharmaceutical and cosmetics industries as a next-generation drug delivery system that can effectively deliver active ingredients into the target areas within the body.
At the trade fair, Nissha will exhibit patches made using the Microneedle 2.0 dissolving microneedle technology it developed to be optimized for cosmetics purposes. Applying patches made using this technology allows the needles to pass through the skin barrier and dissolve directly, which means that active ingredients such as concentrated hyaluronic acid can directly and efficiently penetrate to the inner layers of the skin. Applying microneedle technology to cosmetics required design that met global legal standards and reproducing this design in production, which were made possible through the high-precision molding technology Nissha has developed over the years.
