  • Method and compositions for changing the contour of skin
    Patent number: 6444220
    Abstract: Compositions containing insulin formulated for topical application and a method for using the compositions for the cosmetic treatment of wrinkles. The formulation is useful for contouring the skin for the reduction of wrinkles, furrows and the like. Insulin, delivered transdermally by means of topical application to a portion of skin having wrinkles and/or furrows therein, permeates the epidermis and accumulates in the dermis and subcutaneous tissue underlying the portion of skin. The elevated insulin concentration in the dermis and subcutaneous tissue, relative to the concentration of insulin in other analogous, remotely located tissue, typically in the range of about 25-50 &mgr;U/gm, stimulates the formation of a layer of adipose tissue in the insulin-rich tissue underlying the portion of skin.
