The science behind TAM-818

One Truth 818 is built around TAM-818, a proprietary Telomerase Activating Molecule the brand describes as informed by Nobel Prize-winning telomere research.

The brand’s premise: telomere shortening is associated with the ageing process, and TAM – 818 is designed using insights from telomere research. In independent testing, the One Truth 818 serum was associated with measurable improvements in the appearance of fine lines, firmness and elasticity over 30 days, detailed below.

  • A 14.04% reduction in the appearance of forehead wrinkles
  • An 11.07% reduction in the appearance of crow’s feet
  • A 20.33% improvement in the appearance of skin firmness
  • An 8.33% improvement in the appearance of skin elasticity

The founder.

“For years, as a professional skin therapist, I didn’t like the way the industry was heading. Literally sand-blasting skin off people’s faces in the hope it would ‘look’ nicer. I could see trusting consumers being duped. If your face is inflamed from being pelted, of course it’s going to ‘look nicer’, the inflammation has plumped out the wrinkles. But I knew inflammation started responses within the skin that actually aged it faster, simple science really, and it upset me greatly.

When I met Dr Bill Andrews PhD and learnt about telomeres, I had that moment. Learning that every time a cell divides it actually gets older was a revelation. I was both enlightened and horrified at the same time. I became convinced that many ‘anti-ageing’ treatments were working against the skin’s own biology rather than with it.

When we first started talking about telomeres in 2011, barely anyone had even heard of them. We pioneered a field that simply did not exist before us. As the first person in the world to work on topical telomerase activation, I had to have rigorous, independently tested proof of what we were doing, and to educate the industry on why this approach is worth understanding.”
