Description
UMBREX 50
Cream with urea 50%
Exfoliating - shock action
Description
Cream with 50% lipostabilized urea. It is a keratolytic and exfoliating treatment for localized skin thickenings, also facilitating their subsequent mechanical removal. It is non-greasy and is quickly absorbed. Its innovative formula provides a refreshing and emollient action. Urea is an organic compound that, when used topically, can have a hydrating or keratolytic effect, depending on the concentration of use. The hydrating effect is obtained using low concentrations and is due to an increase in water binding sites at the level of the stratum corneum and a reduction in trans-epidermal water dispersion. The keratoreducing and keratolytic effect is obtained at higher concentrations (30-50%) and the mechanism seems to be the alteration, by breaking hydrogen bonds, of the quaternary structure of the keratins of the stratum corneum. Urea is thus able to denature and disperse keratin and thin the stratum corneum without damaging the skin barrier.
How to use
Apply 1 or 2 times a day after cleaning the area to be treated.
Components
Contains 50% pure lipostabilized urea.
Warnings
Cosmetic for external use. Keep out of reach of children under 3 years of age.
