A method for improving skin comprising reducing the barrier function of skin, and applying a skin treatment composition to the skin. The skin treatment composition may include about 0.1 to about 25 wt. % of acetyl trifluoromethylphenyl valylglycine; about 0.5 to about 30 wt. % of a polyol; about 0.1 to about 30 wt. % of a silicone, fatty compound, or a mixtures thereof, wherein the skin treatment composition is an emulsion, and all weight percentages are based on the total weight of the skin treatment composition.

A method for managing skin tone comprising reducing the synthesis of melanin by applying a skin treatment composition to skin. The skin treatment composition may include about 0.1 to about 25 wt. % of acetyl trifluoromethylphenyl valylglycine; about 0.5 to about 30 wt. % of a polyol; about 0.1 to about 30 wt. % of a silicone, fatty compound, or a mixtures thereof, wherein the skin treatment composition is an emulsion, and all weight percentages are based on the total weight of the skin treatment composition.

Disclosed herein are muscle implants and methods of making muscle implants comprising one or more decellularized muscle matrices. The muscle matrices can, optionally, be joined to one or more decellularized dermal matrices. The muscle implants can be used to enhance muscle volume or to treat muscle damage, defects, and/or disorders. The decellularized muscle matrices in the implants retain at least some of the myofibers found in a muscle tissue prior to processing.
