Abstract

A composition for the treatment of the skin comprises a fraction of a mechanically obtained lysate of yeast cultures of the species Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The translation system contained in the compositions of the invention are obtained by lysing cultures of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The application of such composition, in any suitable form, such as a cream, ointment, gel or the like, to skin promotes protein biosynthesis by the skin cells so that the metabolism of the extracellular matrix of the skin is restored to the physiologically correct balance and the skin is revitalized.
