The Salicylic Peeling 2, 20% MCCM has keratolytic, bactericidal, astringent, and fungicidal properties, which is why it can be used to correct skin imperfections and hyperpigmentation, improving the texture and brightness of the skin. It acts without generating irritation associated with alpha hydroxy acids due to its anti-inflammatory properties.

In the fight against acne, which can affect men and women of all ages, salicylic acid is considered an essential ingredient. Thanks to its multiple benefits, it helps soothe the skin and enhance the complexion's glow. As an excellent anti-imperfection agent, salicylic acid adapts to all skin types.

Salicylic acid (or 2-hydroxybenzoic acid) is a powerful organic element. It gets its name from willow bark, from which it was originally extracted, but it is also present in many fruits and vegetables, including almonds, tomatoes, melons, raspberries, cherries, grapes, apricots, cucumbers, and spinach. Among the many active ingredients used in pharmaceutical and cosmetic treatments, salicylic acid stands out for its numerous therapeutic virtues, particularly for the skin.

Thanks to its astringent properties, salicylic acid performs a keratolytic action on the skin's surface. It removes dead cells accumulated on the stratum corneum and thus stimulates skin renewal. Depending on its dosage, salicylic acid can be very useful for treating certain skin conditions such as acne, warts, psoriasis, and other scaly pathologies, including hyper-squamation of the scalp (dandruff). When applied to the face with serums and creams, salicylic acid stimulates cell renewal and allows the skin to regenerate, resulting in numerous benefits for:

• The complexion: freed from dead cells that dull the complexion, the skin appears more radiant. For skins prone to post-inflammatory or photo-induced hyperpigmentation, salicylic acid, by eliminating cells filled with melanin accumulated on the surface of the stratum corneum, reduces pigment spots in favor of an even complexion.
• A younger appearance of the skin: stimulated cell renewal leads to skin renewal in favor of smoother skin.
• Acne: cell renewal inhibits the formation of comedones by preventing pore blockage that causes acne.

Thanks to its antiseptic properties, salicylic acid prevents the growth of bacteria, fungi, and viruses on the skin's surface. It thus stops the proliferation of Cutibacterium acnes, which causes inflammatory reactions of acne, visible as papules and pustules.
