Skin resurfacing action

A new tool for corneotherapy, Skinperf LWG from Codif is a green biomaterial forming a lamellar gel which behaves like an intracutaneous reservoir of AHA.

Skinperf LWG was designed to diffuse AHAs in a progressive and controlled way while avoiding inflammation. Exfoliation performance equals conventional AHA within 2 weeks. After 4 weeks of treatment, the skin is brighter, pigmentary spots, blackheads and acne scars disappear; without any stinging sensation. 

Skinperf LWG (Lamellar Water Gel) was designed to diffuse AHAs in a progressive and controlled way into the skin. This is a completely new way of releasing AHAs which equals the performance of conventional AHA treatment while avoiding the problems of burns and inflammation. It consists of a biomaterial developed using green chemistry, forming a lamellar gel which behaves like an intracuteneous reservoir of AHA. It is a synergy of alphahydroxy acids: 15% glycolic, 7% lactic and 6% citric acids adsorbed onto the lamellar biomaterial. 

This new system means that low concentrations of AHA can be used while maintaining its exfoliating performance.
