Amino Acids: Reverse and Prevent the Signs of Skin Aging
In skincare discussions, collagen often takes center stage—especially when it comes to reversing the visible signs of aging. What’s rarely emphasized is this: collagen is built entirely from amino acids. Without the correct amino acids in the precise concentrations, your skin can't maintain a youthful, radiant appearance. That means no matter how many peptide or retinol products you use, your skin still won’t have the raw materials it needs to look its best.
At AV Laboratories, we take a different approach. We don’t chase trendy ingredients. We design our formulations based on what your skin needs to thrive, using molecular biology, not marketing.
Why Amino Acids Matter So Much for Skin Wellness
Amino acids are the building blocks of life and skin is no exception. Your skin requires specific amino acids in order to appear radiant and glowing. The skin uses these amino acids not just to build structural proteins, but to fuel energy production, renewal, and manage oxidative stress.
But here’s the problem:
• Many topical products include amino acids in imprecise, ineffective amounts, if at all.
• Others pair them with preservatives or delivery systems that degrade their stability.
• And most ignore the interdependent pathways that govern how these amino acids are actually used by your skin.
This is why more isn’t better. Precision is.
Enter AVL SOM3®: Precision Formulated. Clinically Validated.
AVL SOM3® is our patented longevity technology developed from decades of research in regenerative medicine and cell therapy, where we understood that nutrient balance, metabolic support, and cellular signaling must be perfectly tuned for survival and function. We pioneered the IVF solutions that defined a new standard of care, and have brought that approach to the skin, to help reverse the visible signs of aging. AVL SOM3 is the first skincare ingredient designed to activate all three pillars of molecular renewal: structure, elasticity, and energy, for more youthful looking skin at any age.
In AVL SOM3®, we’ve identified:
• The optimal concentrations of key amino acids for skin wellness (like L-glutamine, glycine, proline, serine, and more).
• The critical cofactors (such as niacinamide) that support their utilization.
• And a formulation environment that ensures bioavailability and stability on the skin.
The result? AVL SOM3® doesn’t just “moisturize” or “plump” it gives your skin what it needs on the molecular level for a radiant, more youthful looking complexion.

You’ll Find AVL SOM3® in Every AVL Product, it’s the groundbreaking technology at the heart of our entire collection.
Whether you use:
• The Face Serum to deliver daily molecular renewal,
• The Face Cream Light for hydration and barrier balance,
• The Face Mist to deliver rapid hydration and inflammation control,
you’re giving your skin the full benefit of AVL SOM3®’s amino acid and micronutrient support.
Every formulation is designed to work in synergy, layering molecular nutrition to create a more resilient skin ecosystem that helps to reduce the visible signs of aging over time.

Why Other Brands Don’t Formulate This Way
It’s simple: precision science is hard. It takes time, clinical testing, and deep expertise in how skin behaves. Our extensive background in cell culture and molecular biology gave us a unique advantage: we treat your skin like a living system, not a surface.
You can feel the difference. But more importantly you’ll see it.

The Bottom Line
Your skin can’t build collagen without amino acids. And it can’t thrive without precision doses delivered in the exact quantities.
AVL SOM3® is how we deliver them to your skin. Backed by science. Delivered through every formula. And validated through real-world clinical testing.
We’ve all spent too long treating skin like a problem to fix. Our clinical longevity skincare takes a smarter approach—using biotechnology to empower your skin’s natural ability to renew, restore and rejuvenate. The result? Radiant skin that stays with you for the years to come. That’s the beauty of total skin wellness.
