Hydrogen peroxide is familiar to many as an effective antiseptic. And only a few use it to get rid of wrinkles, acne, freckles, pigmentation. Although this tool does an excellent job with these problems, provided it is used correctly.

Useful properties of peroxide

Beneficial effects of peroxide on the skin:

• exfoliates dead tissue without injuring the skin, as mechanical peels and scrubs do;
• relieves pigmentation;
• promotes recovery and rejuvenation of the face;
• "Pushes" dirt from cells to the surface;
• kills bacteria and fungi;
• controls the production of sebum;
• improves skin color;
• refreshes the skin.

Operating principle

Once on the skin, peroxide instantly breaks down into atomic oxygen and pure water. Oxygen atoms do not exist in free form and require urgent connection with other particles. Capturing dirt and bacteria, oxygen brings them to the surface from the deep layers of the skin.

Free oxygen also has the property of a natural oxidizing agent. Therefore, it cannot be used on areas with damaged skin. This increases the risk of tissue death and prolonged healing.
