나이아신아마이드

Niacinamide is well tolerated by various skin types, including sensitive and acne-prone skin, with a low risk of irritation. It is suitable for long-term use in topical formulations and often used safely in dermatological treatments.

Niacinamide supports skin health by boosting the synthesis of cellular energy molecules (NAD+), contributing to DNA repair and cellular metabolism that maintain skin homeostasis. Its antioxidant capabilities reduce oxidative stress by neutralizing reactive oxygen species (ROS), thereby preventing premature aging and glycation-associated yellowing of the skin. Niacinamide reduces inflammation by inhibiting inflammatory cytokines and stabilizing mast cells, which helps prevent fibroblast aging and supports collagen and elastin production, enhancing skin firmness and elasticity. It improves the skin barrier by stimulating ceramide production, which enhances hydration and protection against irritants. Niacinamide also inhibits melanin transfer, reducing hyperpigmentation, and regulates sebum production, making it effective against acne and redness.
