Pharmacy help in the fight for young people
There is no need to make tools to preserve and restore the youthfulness of the facial skin, you can buy some pharmacy ointments or creams:
- retinoic ointment;
- szolcoseryl ointment;
- anti-aging face cream (various brands).
Retinoic ointment is an excellent antibacterial agent for various skin defects: acne, rashes, redness, which appear more strongly on the skin with age and last longer. Against bugs, all tools should be applied sharply to them, this ointment is no exception. Clean and healthy skin looks much younger and more beautiful, so you need to eliminate the unpleasant manifestations.
Solcoseryl ointment - a drug that improves the penetration of oxygen into tissues. As we age, the pores of the skin carry this gas worse into the epidermis, which gradually affects its condition: it dries out, peels, the tissues lose their tone, they look sluggish. Solcoseryl should be applied in a thin layer all over the face, rubbing gently into the face. In addition, people with sensitive skin are allowed to "dilute" the ointment with a nourishing or moisturizing cream.
Anti-aging cream is an equally popular and widely advertised treatment that is attributed to truly unimaginable effects: smoothing deep wrinkles, tightening the skin, and more. Almost every cosmetic company produces a range of creams for aging skin, promising a rejuvenating effect. But it must be understood that this is only part of the truth. Age-related facial cosmetics actually smooth out small wrinkles or smooth out unpleasant blemishes, but no product can nourish the skin with collagen and cope with deep skin folds.
Such creams nourish, replenish your supply of vitamins and minerals, but do not create any "magic. " They can be used in combination with other procedures, and you need to focus on the age you choose.
