Azelaic acid - strength in gentleness
Azelic acid is taking the world of cosmetology by storm. Treatments using it are safe and effective.
The main action of all acid peels is to accelerate the removal of dead skin cells (hence varying degrees of exfoliation) and stimulate skin regeneration. Thanks to today's technology, practically everyone can choose an acid treatment tailored to their needs. Azelaic acid stands out among them for its combination of effectiveness and gentle action.
Its main effects include antiseptic, anti-inflammatory, and of course, keratolytic action. This acid effectively regulates the process of shedding dead skin cells, but does not cause sudden, intense exfoliation. Its antibacterial action is often used in acne treatment, especially since bacteria do not develop resistance to it with long-term use, unlike antibiotics used in acne therapy.
Azelac also inhibits sebum production and regulates skin keratinization, improving skin quality (especially oily skin) and preventing blackheads. Additionally, it evens out skin tone as it inhibits tyrosinase, which is involved in melanin production.
A treatment using this acid at the Beauty Embassy is an excellent solution for beginners – to introduce the skin to the effects of acids and when we want to avoid excessive skin exfoliation. It can be used when we cannot afford a few days of worse skin appearance.
It works wonders in combating acne, both in young and older individuals.
It is also a response to the need to care for the skin of pregnant and breastfeeding women. Specialists confirm that it is safe in both of these cases, thanks to its low penetration into the bloodstream (less than 4%).
