Azelaic acid

Name: Azelaic acid Feature: Azelaic acid is also called azalea. Azelaic acid is mainly used in cosmetics and skin care products to whiten and remove freckles, control oil and anti-fat. Azelaic acid has an inhibitory effect on the activity of tyrosinase, whitening and removing spots, and the effect is equivalent to 1/10 of hydroquinone. Azelaic acid is a good stabilizer for emulsion systems. Azelaic acid salts have a self-emulsifying function. The use of azelaic acid in soap can prevent the surface of soap from cracking. Azelaic acid has the following applications/functions: Antibacterial and anti-acne/impression, inhibit melanin and hyperkeratinization 1. Oil control: Azelaic acid can inhibit the activity of reductase, and reductase can catalyze the inactive androgens into active dihydrotestosterone. Dihydrotestosterone can stimulate the sebaceous glands to secrete sebum, and the oil control effect is obvious. There is a need for oil control in acne vulgaris Seborrheic dermatitis is very suitable. 2. Antibacterial: Azelaic acid can inhibit the synthesis of protein by bacteria, and has antibacterial effect against Propionibacterium acnes and Staphylococcus epidermidis. In a higher concentration and acidic environment, this antibacterial effect will be better. It does not belong to Antibiotics, there will be no bacterial resistance. 3. Acne dissolution and prevention of keratinization: Azelaic acid reduces hair follicle hyperkeratosis by reducing the synthesis of filamentous keratin, inhibits cutin in the epidermal layer, dissolves cutin and acne, prevents acne formation, and improves pores. . 4. Anti-inflammatory and antioxidant: Azelaic acid can inhibit cell oxidative metabolism and reduce the production of active oxidizing substances such as O2, OH and H2O2. This ability to clean free radicals has an anti-inflammatory effect. 5. Whitening: It is a competitive inhibitor of tyrosinase, which can reduce the production of melanin. Its whitening effect is selective, most of which work against highly active melanocytes, but have limited effects on normal pigmented skin. Azelaic acid can not only lighten skin lesions but also reduce the scope of skin lesions, and it is safer and gentler than other products.
