Depology Deepcare+ Serum-Infused Micro Dart Patches
Works for
Anti-agingArginine/lysine polypeptide, Madecassoside + 4 moreWorks well
“Our unique Deepcare+™ serum formula helps to reduce the appearance of fine lines while nourishing and plumping the skin.”
This product can help reduce and prevent fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin elasticity and firmness because it contains adenosine.
These ingredients in the product can also be helpful, even though there is less evidence for their effectiveness: acetyl hexapeptide-8, arginine/lysine polypeptide, copper tripeptide-1, madecassoside, palmitoyl pentapeptide-4.
Keep in mind that it typically takes at least 6 weeks to notice any results because the changes that are needed to improve fine lines and elasticity happen in the deeper layers of the skin. No topical anti-aging product can “erase” wrinkles or fully reverse signs of aging.
MoisturizingNot advertised by the brand · Arginine/lysine polypeptide, Madecassoside + 11 moreWorks well
This product can help improve hydration of the skin with the two types of ingredients.
The first type is called “humectants”:
these ingredients help attract water.
When humectants are on the surface of the skin, they “pull in” the moisture from the outside environment, or from
within deeper layers of the skin. The following ingredients in this product do the job:
glycerin, hydrolyzed hyaluronic acid.
This product also contains ingredients called “occlusives”. They help reduce the speed with which our skin loses moisture to the outside environment. These ingredients also help soften the upper layer of the skin, so it feels less tight and nicer to the touch. The following ingredients in this product do the job: caprylic/capric triglyceride, hydrogenated polyisobutene.
The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: acetyl hexapeptide-8, arginine/lysine polypeptide, copper tripeptide-1, madecassoside, palmitoyl pentapeptide-4
Anti-oxidationNot advertised by the brand · Madecassoside, Adenosine + 1 moreWorks well
This product contains antioxidants (madecassoside) that can help neutralize free radicals in skin. By doing so, they can lessen the damage the skin gets from the UV light (sun).

More about AdenosineCopper tripeptide-1~0.3–0.7%
- Irritation risk
- Low
A naturally occurring peptide. One of the most studied peptides in dermatology. It is sometimes abbreviated GHK-Cu. Belongs to the class of carrier peptides. It stimulates both synthesis and breakdown of collagen in skin. It is released in skin wounds and inflammation to support healing. It accelerates wound-healing of the skin and can stimulate hair growth. There are preliminary studies that confirm that copper tripeptide can help support collagen production reducing fine lines and wrinkles and decrease inflammation in skin.

Product summary
"Dēpology - Deepcare+ Serum-Infused Micro Dart Patches" is effective for: Anti-aging and Moisturizing
Ingredient callouts
- Peptides (palmitoyl pentapeptide-4 0.10% - 0.35%, acetyl hexapeptide-8 0.15% - 0.60%, copper tripeptide-1 0.30% - 0.70% and arginine/lysine polypeptide 3.10% - 4.70%). Peptides are a very big group of ingredients. They all consist of a different combination of aminoacids. Our skin produces Peptides naturally. Some of them work as natural antibiotics, promote wound-healing and production of collagen. The scientists are still studying how effective the topical application of Peptides is, but it is very likely that theynare helpful. Peptides might be able to support skin barrier restoration and even have an anti-aging benefit. At the very least, they certainly help attract water to the skin and support the hydration in this way.
- Adenosine 0.45% - 1.05%. It is a chemical present inside our skin cells. A clinical trial confirmed that topical application of Adenosine in a low concentration can reduce dynamic wrinkles (these are the wrinkles that appear with age in a places where our mimic is the most active, for example, in the corners of the eyes or on the forehead).
- Actives derived from an extract of the Centella Asiatica plant (also known as Gotu Kola) - madecassoside 2.10% - 3.20% The Centella Asiatica Actives, even in low concentration, can help reduce inflammation in skin, strengthen the skin barrier and reduce photodamage. They can also help to decrease scarring.
- Humectants (acetyl hexapeptide-8 0.15% - 0.60%, sodium hyaluronate 3.60% - 5.30%, trehalose 4.40% - 6.50%, glycerin 3.30% - 5.00% and hydrolyzed hyaluronic acid 22.00% - 33.00%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.
