Lactolan & cosmetic procedures

Sometimes it seems that cosmetology was invented so that life does not seem too sweet to women. Some procedures really resemble sophisticated torture: first you endure painful injections or a burning mixture on your face, then you walk around with swelling and bruises, or you hide your red, flaky face from others.

Of course, in order to regain or preserve youth and beauty, it is worth enduring some hardships, but it’s good that there are means that give an effect without any unpleasant sensations. For example, the drug from the Israeli company Holy Land Lactolan. Its manufacturer promises us a peeling effect, and at the same time continuous positive emotions.

Are there any contraindications and side effects?

Like all peels for home use, ALPHA COMPLEX Rapid Exfoliator contains a low concentration of active substances. However, this composition may cause an allergic reaction and irritation. Therefore, you should not peel in the following cases:

• Individual intolerance to any component in the complex;
• Presence of damage to the skin: abrasions, cuts, burns;
• Infectious skin diseases during exacerbation;
• Increased skin sensitivity;
• Pregnancy and lactation;

Some women report a slight tingling sensation during the exfoliation process. This side effect is typical for many types of fruit peeling. However, no severe redness, peeling of the skin, or swelling were noted. There is no rehabilitation period as such due to the low traumatic nature of the procedure.

Cosmetologists advise: women prone to the formation of age spots should limit exposure to the sun for 3-5 days after exfoliating ALPHA COMPLEX Rapid Exfoliator.

The manufacturer promises us the following effect from using this product:

How to use lactolan cream

Depending on the method of use, lactolan can work as an enzyme peeling, a gommage peeling, or simply as a cleansing and nourishing mask.

The options for its use are:

First way

Apply a thin layer to the skin (sometimes aloe gel from the same manufacturer is applied under it for an additional effect), put a hot - 30-40 degrees - damp towel on top (or cling film with slits, and a hot towel on top of it), lie down for 10 -15 minutes.

Afterwards, remove the towel, let it dry, and remove the resulting film. Heating activates the enzymes contained in lactolan, and thus we obtain an enzyme peeling.

Second way

Apply a thin layer, leave for 10–15 minutes, then remove. Enzymes are not included in the work, acid and vitamins with minerals act - the result is a mask with a cleansing and nourishing effect.

Third way

Apply a thicker layer and massage your face. If the massage is long, alternating the addition of water and lactolan, the skin is very well evened out, brightened, and slightly blushed.

The effect of gommage depends on how the lactolan film is removed from the face.

If you roll it with wet fingers, strictly along the massage lines so as not to stretch the skin! - there will be gommage .

If you simply rinse with a damp sponge, the effect will be softer and somewhat less effective.

The second method of removing the drug is recommended for inflammation and rashes on the skin, as well as in cases of rosacea and hypersensitivity.

ABR peeling Holy Land

Cosmetologists speak of ABR peeling as an effective medicinal composition with mid-superficial action. This peeling helps to carry out cosmetic care procedures in specialized clinics. The drug is used for many manipulations. As practice results show, the most noticeable effects can be achieved on oily skin.

ABR peeling contains salicylic acid and several fruit acids. This explains its ability to lighten age spots and prevent the appearance of new dark spots on the skin. Salicylic acid has been used for quite some time to get rid of rosacea and acne. An additional advantage of the drug is that it can be used for delicate care after surgery. Its use is recommended after serious intervention in the epidermal layer. Manufacturer Holy Land has combined biological active elements and a unique complex of acids in its ABR peeling product. This composition allows you to effectively cleanse the skin without causing side effects and avoiding irritation.

How does ABR peeling work?

The effect of manipulation is so noticeable due to the removal of keratinized skin particles that created an unpleasant uneven surface texture. Chemical peeling helps get rid of fine wrinkles, pigmentation, overly visible pores, acne scars and other skin imperfections through an abrasive method. After the procedure, the client sees the freshness and purity of renewed skin on his face.

To maintain the results of the procedure over a long period of time, cosmetologists advise not only to regularly conduct peeling sessions, but also to monitor your diet and stop drinking alcohol and smoking, which have a detrimental effect on the condition of the skin. If you make this lifestyle a habit on a regular basis and reinforce it with ABR peeling procedures, the effect will be enhanced and prolonged.

Composition of the drug used during peeling

Let's take a closer look at the substances included in the drug. Holy Land has long been known for the fact that its products contain a lot of useful substances and natural elements. It is important to emphasize that in addition to the basic reagents, the drug contains pomegranate, pumpkin, tea, grape and fig extracts. Acai oil is also added to the composition, which has a beneficial effect on the skin’s ability to recover in a short time.

In addition to the above elements, the active composition has the following components:

• Alpha hydroxyl acid guarantees a gentle removal of dead skin particles, which occurs evenly over the entire surface of the tissue. The action of this acid triggers metabolic processes in tissues, promotes accelerated cellular recovery, and increases the tone of the target area as a whole;
• Beta Hydroxyl Acid helps exfoliate dead skin and unclog pores by unclogging sebaceous ducts. This element in the composition helps prevent inflammation and soothes the skin;
• retinol, also found in ABR peeling, helps fight free radicals, supports regenerative processes in tissues, and serves as a catalyst for cellular metabolism. Retinol is involved in the synthesis of collagen fibers and also normalizes the production of sebum by the sebaceous glands.

Indications for the procedure

Let's study the situations in which it is recommended to carry out the ABR peeling procedure.

ABR peeling will come to the rescue if you have:

• dull complexion;
• there are small wrinkles;
• the relief of the skin is uneven;
• pores are too noticeable;
• present window;
• scars and post-acne scars are visible on the face;
• with excessive skin pigmentation;
• if you have hyperkeratosis.

The listed cosmetic defects can be minimized or removed completely if you undergo a full course of procedures and follow the recommendations that your cosmetologist will give you.

It is necessary to understand that manipulation can only be performed in the most competent manner only in a licensed clinic.

How to prepare for ABR peeling manipulation?

The most noticeable effect can be achieved if you approach the procedure comprehensively, taking into account preparation for peeling and subsequent care. Pre-preparation will help make the skin more receptive to the substances contained in the peel. If we consider the reviews of those who have tried the ABR peeling procedure, the overwhelming majority are positive. If we summarize the information presented in these reviews, we can conclude that preparation for 5-7 days before the procedure through the use of glycolic acid preparations helps to improve the effect of the manipulation itself and make it last longer.

Protocol for the ABR peeling procedure

First you need to cleanse the skin using sugar or ichthyol soap. After this, the target area is covered with lotion and massaged. This effect helps relax the skin and fill it with moisture.

After the manipulations are completed, the ABR peeling composition begins to be applied directly. The drug is applied to the forehead, temples, then moved to the ears. After this, the neck, chin area, buccal area and nasolabial area are covered with the medication. The manipulation ends with treatment of the area above the lip and eyes. After 5 minutes have passed, the drug is placed in a second layer on the areas most in need of treatment. Leave the composition on the skin for 20 minutes, and then use a sponge to cleanse the skin of any remaining product.

After the measures taken, the time comes to apply the neutralizer composition. Cover all areas with it and leave it for 10 minutes. After the exposure time has expired, everything is washed off with water, the skin is dried with a towel or sponges, and then a specialized mask is applied to tighten the pores. The mask also has an anti-inflammatory effect, makes the skin lighter and disinfects. Then it is possible to apply a tonic lotion. Most often, azulene lotion is used, which contains wound-healing Panthenol as a constituent element. After all manipulations, moisturizing cream can be applied.

To achieve maximum effect, cosmetologists recommend 6-10 sessions. You need to wait about 2 weeks between sessions.

Are there any contraindications for the procedure?

Like any other cosmetic procedure, ABR peeling has contraindications. The session is not recommended for the following conditions and diseases:

• during pregnancy and lactation;
• in case of individual intolerance to the peeling composition;
• if the integrity of the skin in the target treatment area is damaged;
• if the client has eczema or dermatitis;
• in case of dysfunction of the thyroid gland;
• tanned skin;
• before a vacation planned in direct sunlight or in hot countries.

It must be emphasized that such peeling can only be carried out in a clinical setting and by competent cosmetologists with medical education. The establishment in which the procedure is carried out must have a special license to carry out such activities. Only a qualified specialist can guarantee an effective result with the absence of negative consequences, side effects and complications. You need to make sure that the salon you decide to visit employs a certified doctor, and not just a nurse or, even worse, a master who also does manicure and pedicure. It is better to spend more on the procedure, but go to a trusted salon with a certified specialist.

Result of application

The product is certainly good and effective. It applies easily to the face, smells like yogurt, does not burn or sting. On the contrary, it soothes the skin, relieves peeling and irritation, evens out the complexion and makes it more fresh and vibrant. The skin after it is soft, tender, velvety - you can directly feel that it has been “fed and watered.”

It cleanses the face well of blackheads, drawing out and dissolving the sebaceous plugs of open comedones.

Deep blackheads with a long shaft will not remove; in this case, only professional cleaning by a cosmetologist will help.

When used systematically - once every 7 or 10 days - it lightens post-acne spots and hyperpigmentation. It is believed that it smoothes out small wrinkles, but I didn’t feel this on myself, maybe just a little. Although, by moisturizing and nourishing the skin, it, of course, slows down its aging.

That is, as a skin care product without any special problems, lactolan works great. It is also good as a drug for rehabilitation after or during courses of severe, aggressive cosmetic procedures.

The effectiveness of this cosmetic procedure is confirmed by reviews from women. According to them, the skin cleanses, becomes smooth and tightened, tone increases, and color improves.

Disadvantages of Lactolan

It has only one drawback - high cost. A 70 ml tube costs about 2,000 rubles. It must be said that since lactolan is usually applied in a thin layer, this tube lasts quite a long time, for 3-4 months.

But there are some ways to save a little more:

• buy a large “professional” jar together with your friends, it will be a little cheaper (there is no point in buying such a jar for one person, since the shelf life of the drug is no more than a year);

• purchase the product in foreign online stores (even better through joint purchasing sites, which are available in all major cities), prices there are usually somewhat lower, even taking into account the cost of delivery;

• when nothing is squeezed out of the tube at all, you can cut off its top and extract some more of the drug from there; it may be enough for 4-5 times.

How much do Holy Land peels cost? Price of drugs for home use

The price of a package of the Holy Land peeling drug is comparable to the price of one procedure performed in a salon. However, it should be taken into account that cosmetologists use professional Holy Land compositions, which allow them to achieve the desired effect with fewer procedures.

So, let's recap

Lactolan is a high-quality and effective drug that does not promise a miraculous cure for serious problems, but provides skin care, cleansing and nutrition, thereby preventing these problems.

This is a product that every woman should have. The most important thing is that its use is safe and does not cause any unpleasant consequences. You just enjoy the procedure and look prettier!
