Enzymatic Peel for Post-Acne Discoloration and Scars with Citric Acid

Keratoline™, citric acid, Nisinoxid®, Superox-C™, avocado oil, vitamin E

DESCRIPTION:

Keratoline™ is an enzymatic exfoliant, based on a protease derived from a fermentation process, that gently removes dead cells to reveal younger, healthier-looking skin. It is an alternative to AHA acids that smooths the skin’s surface and promotes cell renewal.

Citric acid is a fruit acid and belongs to the hydroxy acid group. Its primary action is to exfoliate and effectively improve skin parameters. Citric acid stimulates the production of procollagen (precursor of collagen) and improves the condition of the dermis and living layers of the epidermis. It increases skin firmness by increasing GAG (glycosaminoglycans) levels. Has a beneficial effect on the collagen of blood vessels – they become less fragile and more elastic. The effects of citric acid peels include: normalisation of keratinocyte proliferation (proliferation), deep cleansing of the skin, smoothing of wrinkles and fine lines, reduction of discolouration and brightening of the skin, as well as skin regeneration and reconstruction.

Nisinoxid® – a proprietary peptide antimicrobial and antioxidant system developed by Chantarelle’s scientific research department. It has rejuvenating and regenerating properties and has been proven by studies to be effective against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, moulds and fungi. It counteracts aggressive free radicals and the effects of damage, including hyperpigmentation. Contains the polypeptide nisin and a complex of sodium levulinate and anisic acid sodium.

Superox-C™ – an extract from the Australian cockatoo plum with a very high standardised content of stable vitamin C, which is heat-resistant. Enhances the synthesis of vitamin C transporters (SVCT-1) influencing more efficient transport of the vitamin to deeper layers of the skin and resulting in more effective utilisation. Increases the antioxidant defence of cells to better protect against oxidative stress. Stimulates pro-collagen I and hyaluronic acid synthesis. Smoothes wrinkles, lightens hyperpigmentation and is effective in acne treatments.

Avocado Oil (Persea Gratissima Oil) – regenerating avocado oil with a very high content of triglycerides and natural vitamins A and E. Thanks to its soothing, moisturising and emollient properties, as well as its rapid penetration without leaving a sticky film – it is effective in rejuvenating treatment and prevents skin irritation.

Vitamin E – known as the “vitamin of youth. It is responsible for the formation of epidermal cells, inhibits the skin’s ageing process and restores its balance. Protects against harmful UV radiation, prevents strong oxidation of lipids in the skin. It counteracts the release of free radicals, helps maintain the elasticity of the skin and thus prevents skin ageing and the formation of wrinkles.
