Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of skin external preparation, in particular to a traditional Chinese medicinal material skin chemical peeling reagent and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] Skin chemical peeling technology is a common external method for promoting skin renewal and treatment by controllable dissolution or peeling of the epidermal keratin layer through chemical agents, and is widely used in the treatment of skin problems such as acne, pigmentation, photoaging, enlarged pores and keratin accumulation. The main peeling agents on the market currently mainly include AHA, BHA, TCA and phenol components. These reagents have certain exfoliation and renewal effects, but generally have the following technical defects:
[0003] Firstly, strong irritation and high side effects. Traditional peeling agents rely on high-concentration acid chemical reactions, which can easily cause burning sensation, erythema, edema and even epidermal burns, especially in strong peeling agents such as TCA, which can easily induce pigmentation or postoperative chronic inflammation, and sensitive skin groups are more difficult to tolerate.
[0004] Secondly, complex preparation and high storage requirements. Multi-component complex peeling agents such as Jessner solution need to strictly control the proportion and environment during preparation, and some components (such as salicylic acid) are sensitive to oxidation and light, and need to be refrigerated and protected from light, which is difficult to store and transport regularly.
[0005] Thirdly, lack of repair support mechanism. Most traditional peeling agents lack auxiliary components for barrier reconstruction and inflammation regulation after peeling, and the skin is vulnerable after peeling, which can easily cause secondary infection or prolong the recovery period.
[0006] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a traditional Chinese medicine peeling agent with natural ingredients, mild peeling, scientific compatibility, controllable preparation, and repair and protection functions to solve the technical problems of traditional technology in irritation, recovery period and preparation industrialization.

[0055] With reference to the drawings of the embodiments of the present application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments of the present application, all other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art without creative work fall within the protection scope of the present application.
[0056] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5 The present application provides a traditional Chinese medicine skin chemical peeling agent and a preparation method thereof. The agent has clear structure, reasonable compatibility, simple preparation process and controllable parameters, and has the characteristics of mild peeling, barrier friendliness, repair supportability and wide application scenarios. The agent is suitable for auxiliary removal and daily conditioning of non-break skin problems such as keratin layer accumulation, rough skin and mild closed comedones.
[0057] I. Component structure and action mechanism
[0058] The present application constructs a formula structure composed of five kinds of traditional Chinese medicine / functional ingredients. According to the compatibility logic of "monarch, minister, assistant and guide" in traditional Chinese medicine, the components form clear division of labor and functional synergy.
[0059] Monarch: saturated potassium hydroxide solution
[0060] Potassium hydroxide is a strong base that can rapidly hydrolyze the intercellular junction structure (mainly keratin and lipid layer) of the keratin layer under external use conditions, achieving the peeling and exfoliation of epidermal dead skin cells. Its action mechanism relies on the alkaline destruction of the intercellular barrier to release the extracellular matrix, and it is commonly used in mild degreasing and keratolytic systems. In the present application, its peeling force is the main axis function, but it needs to be matched with a buffer structure to control the penetration force.
[0061] Minister: glutinous rice
[0062] Glutinous rice is rich in amylopectin and plant polysaccharides, and forms a high-adhesion hydrogel film after being exposed to water, which has dual functions:
[0063] Physical level: form a surface slow-release film to slow down the penetration rate of potassium hydroxide and avoid damage to deep tissues;
[0064] Physiological level: its natural amino acids such as arginine and glutamic acid can provide a nutrient microenvironment to improve postoperative skin recovery efficiency. Glutinous rice film can also adsorb part of the alkali solution to reduce the peak concentration of irritation.
[0065] Assistant: gallnut
[0066] Gallnut is rich in tannic acid (tannin macromolecular phenols), which has the following advantages:
[0067] Tannic acid can form a precipitated protective film with keratin, effectively "sealing" open skin lesions;
[0068] The peroxidase activity can be inhibited by metal ion chelation to relieve postoperative redness;
[0069] The bacteriostatic spectrum is wide, and has certain broad-spectrum antibacterial performance, so that the risk of secondary infection of the exfoliation site is reduced.
[0070] Auxiliary repair components: glycerin and centella asiatica extract
[0071] Glycerin: The trihydroxy alcohol structure provides excellent moisturizing and sebum membrane repair capabilities for it, can maintain the hydration state of the stratum corneum, and buffer the dehydration effect;
[0072] Centella asiatica extract: contains hydroxyl asiatic acid and asiaticoside, and modern research shows that it can promote the generation of type I and type III collagen, enhance the migration speed of fibroblasts, and accelerate the reconstruction of barrier function.
[0073] In summary, a structural functional closed loop is formed among the five components, achieving the whole process of "exfoliation-buffering-calming-repairing" cooperation.
[0074] II. Preparation process and key parameter control
[0075] The present application provides a kind of exfoliation reagent preparation method based on industrial amplification, comprising the following steps:
[0076] S1, raw material weighing and pretreatment
[0077] S1.1: weigh the saturated potassium hydroxide solution, glutinous rice, gallnut, glycerin and centella asiatica extract respectively, use electronic balance operation, weighing error ≤±0.1g, record number to ensure traceability;
[0078] S1.2: gallnut and centella asiatica extract are pulverized by high-speed airflow mill, the processing time is 5-8 minutes, the particle size D50 is controlled to be 20-40 μm; then it is placed in a hot air drying oven at 60±2℃ and dried for 2 hours, the residual moisture is controlled to be ≤5%, to prevent agglomeration.
[0079] Note: If drying and particle size control are not performed, it may cause uneven mixing, local settlement or uncontrolled reaction rate, etc.
[0080] S2, base solution preparation and preliminary mixing
[0081] S2.1: inject the saturated potassium hydroxide solution into a clean alkali-resistant reaction container, the stirring mode is magnetic stirring, set 200 rpm, maintain the temperature at 25±2℃;
[0082] S2.2: under continuous stirring, glycerin and centella asiatica extract powder are added in turn, and the solution is stirred for 10 minutes until it is clear.
[0083] Note: Glycerin is added in sequence, which can improve the dispersibility of the powder. Adding Centella asiatica after the base solution helps it dissolve fully in the base solution.
[0084] S3, Active substance step-by-step addition and main mixing reaction
[0085] S3.1: Glutinous rice is soaked in purified water at 25±1°C for 30 minutes (the water is sterilized by a 0.22μm filter membrane in advance), then drained using vacuum filtration, and the particle shape is kept intact; slowly pour into the above-mentioned base solution, stirring rate 200rpm, time 15 minutes, forming a milky protective system;
[0086] S3.2: Add crushed gallnut powder, switch to mechanical stirring device, set three-stage mode:
[0087]
[0088] Note: The use of multi-stage stirring design helps to fully mix components of multiple particle sizes and densities, and reduces local concentration reaction points.
[0089] S4, Filtration, cooling and packaging
[0090] S4.1: The obtained mixed solution is filtered through a 200μm stainless steel screen to remove unsolved particles, ensuring that the liquid is clear and homogeneous;
[0091] S4.2: After cooling at room temperature for 10 minutes, fill in an ISO 8 clean environment, use high-closed polyethylene light-shielding bottles, use aluminum film heat sealing + mechanical screw cap double sealing to ensure light shielding rate ≥99%, and air tightness test qualified rate ≥95%.
[0092] III. Usage method and operation specification
[0093] The peeling agent can be used by plastic surgeons and dermatologists to treat various pigmentation skin diseases, especially lesions in difficult-to-operate areas such as the nose, lips, and eyes. The specific usage process is as follows:
[0094] Spotting operation: use a silicone spatula or cotton swab to evenly spot 5-10g of the agent on the treatment area, with a coating thickness of 1-2mm;
[0095] Natural standing: stand for 6-8 minutes without covering or massaging, and avoid external interference with the peeling reaction;
[0096] Rinse treatment: use 25±2°C warm water or 0.9% sodium chloride solution to rinse the surface thoroughly to ensure that the residual alkali is neutralized;
[0097] Dry and recover: use sterile absorbent gauze to gently dry, avoiding wiping damage.
[0098] Warning: It is not recommended to extend the standing time beyond 10 minutes, nor to use it on areas with open skin lesions to prevent excessive penetration.
[0099] Four, synergistic closed-loop and repair time
[0100] The core value of the formula design of the present application is:
[0101] Peeling initiation mechanism: potassium hydroxide initiates keratin dissolution in the pH 11-12 range;
[0102] Physical buffering mechanism: glutinous rice provides initial penetration control and slow-release alkaline activity;
[0103] Postoperative protection mechanism: gallnut rapidly precipitates and seals, and has anti-inflammatory and astringent properties;
[0104] Moisturizing and repair mechanism: glycerol and centella asiatica extract work together to maintain hydration and dermal matrix repair progress.
[0105] Generally within 2-4 hours after use, the skin barrier begins to enter the reconstruction period, and the centella asiatica component can significantly accelerate the barrier reconstruction period and shorten the reaction time of erythema and dry itching.
[0106] The reagent is especially suitable for sensitive skin, people with thin keratin layer, or users who are not tolerant to traditional fruit acids, and can complete "controllable peeling + synergistic repair" without breaking the skin, penetrating blood, or abnormal peeling.
