Dr. Kaplan’s Key Ingredients That Deliver Powerful Results
Have you ever wondered why the formulas in Dr. Kaplan’s products are so effective and powerful? It all comes down to the ingredients inside and how they work together. There’s certain ingredients that are more exclusive than others, and when paired together in certain ways they can be an important factor in anti-aging formulas, protecting skin from environmental stressors, rejuvenating the skin and more.
These ingredients that make such a powerful difference can be found in nearly all of Dr. Kaplan’s products, and after reading more about them you’ll understand why. Knowing these are key ingredients found in so many formulas from our lines, you’ll also know your skin is getting the best care possible while keeping your routine as simple as possible.
Now, let’s dive into those ingredients we’re speaking so highly about!
Matrixyl Synthe'6 Peptide
Our first ingredient is Matrixyl Synthe’6 Peptide, and though it may be a bit of a tongue twister it plays a huge part in the formula's performance. The FDA-approved peptide is clinically proven to stimulate not one, but 6 levels of collagen synthesis. To keep it simple, this is when specialized cells that function to synthesize collagen are created by other cells.
This ingredient has recently gone through a facelift itself with its older versions (Matrixyl and Matrixyl 3000) which simply work to prevent fine lines. However, this newer version not only does that but also has been proven to be better at diminishing fine lines while also improving overall skin texture and promoting cell renewal.
How does this happen? Matrixyl Synthe’6 Peptide goes within the dermal matrix and stimulates all the major constituents, leading to plump and smooth skin. Clinically tested, it’s been shown to have some of the most effective results when it comes to anti-aging ingredients.

Juvinity
This modern antioxidant is an ingredient you want to use in concentrates and other products to keep skin youthful. Using Nobel Prize winning DNA technology on Telomeres assists heavily in delaying cellular aging while simultaneously increasing skin cell vitality.
How on earth can an ingredient do this? The only way to explain is with science. Let’s start with what Telomeres are, they are the genetic code protecting the ends of chromosomes – similar to the end of a shoelace or a drawstring. When cells divide, the DNA strand opens up and genetic information is copied from end to end. The issue is, each time this division happens, part of the Telomere dissolves and gets shorter, as it shortens, the DNA strand becomes damaged and can no longer continue replicating, as a result, the cell dies.
With Juvinity, the Telomere is lengthened and delays cellular aging. It also works powerfully in anti-aging formulas.

TriActive Vitamin Complex
If you’re looking to rejuvenate your skin, then this ingredient is what you need to be on the lookout for! Giving skin the ultimate feeling of renewal, you’ll find that your skin will look better than ever. How does one ingredient do this? It’s by using a combination of three powerful vitamins – Vitamin A, C and E – that all benefit your skin in different ways.
Vitamin A focuses specifically on cell production and growth, which as we know is essential when it comes to anti-aging. Couple that with Vitamin C which helps to stimulate collagen production and is so important when it comes to stronger and more youthful skin. Finally, with Vitamin E also included, you’re protecting and nourishing your skin for an all-around complex that takes care of your skin in every way.

BioFusion-3S
Exclusive to KAPLAN MD, the BioFusion-3S comprises 3 different plant stem cells. These are sourced from Alp Rose, the Gamay Grape and Swiss Apple. Alp Rose (also known as Rhodendron Ferrugineum) is a Lead Stem Cell. This Alp Rose is rare and grows in extreme conditions while withstanding all climates. What does it do for your skin? It works to increase the vitality of your skin’s stem cells while also protecting it against environmental stressors.
The Gamay Grape (or the Vitis Vinifera) stem cell is UV-resistant and is known for its ability to protect the skin from UV-stressors. Therefore, it does its magic by protecting skin from photo-aging by building the skin’s UV tolerance up each time the ingredient is applied.
Lastly, there’s Swiss Apple (also known as the Malus Domestica). This is another rare ingredient and it’s known specifically for longevity and resolvability. That means it helps your skin’s stem cells maintain strength and structure along with regenerating new collagen formations. This is essential for anti-aging and healthy, youthful looking skin!
