Beschreibung
Pyruvic peel is a line of products with hydroalcoholic base and where the main active ingredient is the pyruvic acid.
Affects the epidermis and the dermis. Decreases the cohesion of epidermal corneocytes and prevents the thickening of the corneal layer. The exfoliation occurs without drying the skin,
because the pyruvic acid hydrolyzes into lactic acid, an alpha hydroxy acid with moisturizing properties that creates a protective film that prevents the skin from dehydrating. Due to its keratolytic, sebum regulating, and anti-microbial action, it is indicated for the treatment of all types of acne. Stimulation on dermal collagen, elastin, and glycoprotein synthesis is higher than that of glycolic acid and similar to that induced by, but without discomfort and only causing a mild erythema.
