Benefits of technology

[0004] It is an object of the present invention to provide a cosmetic and, at the same time, antimycotic composition capable of regenerating the affected skin regions and so gradually reducing and eventually attenuating and / or eliminating the above disorders.
[0005] It is a further object of the present invention to provide cosmetic compositions which, in addition to being cosmetic, are also highly effective in the treatment of psoriasis, even severe, recurrent cases involving extensive skin regions.
[0011] As stated in the introduction, retinoic acid as such is already known as a product for the treatment of acne, and is preferably obtained from its ethyl ester. Its direct "clinical" use, however, in the form of ethyl and, more especially, glycopropyl ester, and its association with hydroquinone in a glyco- and / or hydro-alcohol solution, are entirely new, and have surprisingly resulted in a product which is equally effective in the treatment of any other unsightly skin disorder, and which produces a marked peeling effect (desquamation of the surface layers of the skin) with a visible improvement in the tone, firmness and luminosity of the skin, a visible reduction of small wrinkles, and a marked reduction of deeper wrinkles, together with a reduction in excess sebum secretion.
[0012] In the case of acne, repeated use of the composition according to the invention provides for a marked improvement after only a few applications (five on average) and eventually total elimination. The composition according to the invention is also a highly effective antimycotic for curing diseases such as pityriasis, versicolor and onychomycosis after only two / four applications (one a week), and also provides for a marked improvement and for eventually curing psoriasis.
[0017] Alternatively, the composition according to the invention may comprise sodium heparin in gel form to enhance the anti-edema effect.
[0019] It is a further object of the present invention to provide cosmetic methods of treating unsightly skin disorders such as acne, scars, stretch marks and dark spots, and enabling results at various levels ranging from simply invigorating "healthy" skin to gradually attenuating (and eventually eliminating or practically eliminating) the disorder.

Problems solved by technology

In more It serious cases, again of acne for example, recourse must be made to surgery to remove the affected skin portions, owing to the failure of known medicinal remedies not only to arrest the disease but also to even partly repair the damage already produced to the skin.

example 2

[0035] Using solution S in Example 1, clinical tests were conducted of a test group of 30 patients affected with various types of unsightly skin disorders and / or diseases. More specifically, using a wad of cotton, a very small amount of solution S (2 ml for the face) is applied to the skin and, in the space of 2-3 days, produces a peeling effect (desquamation of the surface layers of the skin) lasting about 12-48 hours. This is at times preceded by reddening of the skin and a slight heating sensation, which ceases when the skin peels. The treatment may be repeated twice a week.

[0036] In a second test group of 30 patients with more serious disorders, the solution was applied daily for 6-20 days. A third test group of 30 patients were given a daily evening application of solution S in the form of a cream with 4% by weight of active substance (solution S), and 2% by weight for patients with sensitive skins. In no case was peeling produced.

[0037] All three test groups treated as describ...

example 3

[0041] In the same way as in Example 1, a solution "M" was prepared with the following composition:

3 retinoic acid 2.5 g hydroquinone 109 g propylene glycol 1000 ml

[0042] Patients selected from the five groups in Example 2 and suffering from mycotic infections were treated with solution M once or twice a week for 1-2 weeks. In all cases, a marked antimycotic action was observed, and patients suffering from pityriasis, versicolor or onychomycosis were cured completely.

[0043] Thirty patients, 12 of whom in serious conditions, with psoriasis on all parts of the body and treated for several years with various available therapies, were treated with solution M and solution S in Example 1, as follows:

[0044] two applications a week of solution S and simultaneous application of cream with 6-10% of solution S for 1-4 months;

[0045] in more stubborn cases, the cycle was repeated with solution M as opposed to S.

[0046] The disorder is cured first on the face, then on the back, chest and arms, and...

example 4

[0052] A test group of 1300 patients were treated with solutions S and M and a solution D identical to S but containing no hydroquinone, and using the solutions as such and in the form of cream.

[0053] The same results as in Examples 2 and 3 were observed, with absolutely no side effects. Patients in pregnancy or with skin tumors or allergies were not tested. The solution in cream form provides for improving the skin but has no appreciable peeling effect.

[0054] The addition of small amounts of solution S (2 ml) provides for enhancing the anti-inflammatory effects of commercial medicinal products of niflumic acid 3% (cream), indomethacin 1% (gel) and naproxene 10% (gel); for enhancing the anti-edema effect of sodium heparin (gel); for producing an antipruritic effect with an aqueous extract of tritiam vulgaris (cream); for improving the anti-pityriasis effect of terbinafin 1% (cream); and for improved treatment of herpes simplex with aciclovir 5% (cream).

[0055] Solution M in a 2% crea...

Description

[0001] The present invention relates to cosmetic compositions which may be applied to any part of the skin of the human body, including the scalp and genital organs, for effectively reducing and / or gradually eliminating unsightly skin disorders such as stretch marks, acne, scars, dark spots and incipient baldness, and which are also highly effective in treating mycosis and psoriasis. The present invention also relates to a cosmetic method of employing such compositions.[0002] Many people suffer from unsightly skin disorders caused by diseases or deterioration of more or less extensive portions of the skin, e.g. acne, scars resulting from accidents, wrinkles, stretch marks, blackheads, dark spots, and which are often accompanied by excessive sebum secretion and, at times, by actual diseases often caused by mycotic infections such as psoriasis, pityriasis, onychomycosis, etc.[0003] At present, people suffering from such problems must use a variety of either medicinal or cosmetic produ...
