Scientists at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Massachusetts General Hospital, Living Proof,
and Olivo Labs developed a silicone-based polymer that can be assembled into a network known
as a cross-linked polymer layer (XPL). When applied on the skin as a thin, imperceptible coating,
the material mimics the properties of healthy, youthful skin, with the ability to reshape undereye
bags and enhance skin hydration. To learn more about antiaging techniques, turn the page.
