Can aloe vera gel reduce scars? What are the uses of aloe vera gel?

Summer is coming soon, and it's time to show off your arms and legs. However, the scars on the legs are really disappointing. Alas, aloe vera gel seems to have the effect of lightening scars. Why not try it?

Aloe vera gel is a hyaluronic acid gel-like substance similar to the skin. It has a certain effect on relieving the hyperplasia of fibrous connective tissue around scars and relieving vasodilation. It can only be said that it has a relieving effect, but aloe vera gel cannot really remove scars. Because the recovery of skin tissue is the proliferation of fibroblasts and the proliferation of cellulose produced by fibroblasts. Only lasers and topical drugs can inhibit scars together. In clinical practice, it is not recommended to use aloe vera gel or other folk remedies for treatment. It is still necessary to go to a professional dermatologist for professional guidance to remove scars.

Anti-oxidation, moisturizing, sunburn repair, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory. Aloe vera gel is made from ingredients extracted from a natural plant called aloe vera. The ingredients contained in aloe vera gel have a good antioxidant effect. We know that active oxygen plays an important role in the pigmentation and aging of our skin, so antioxidants can play a certain role in eliminating pigmentation and anti-wrinkle. In addition, aloe vera gel also contains a large amount of natural moisturizing factors, some of which contain natural polysaccharides and amino acids, which have the effect of repairing the skin barrier and moisturizing. So it is cool when applied on the face, and it also has a certain repairing effect on sunburn. The natural ingredients in aloe vera gel also have natural antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects, and are also effective for some inflammatory acne or small inflammatory skin lesions. However, these aloe vera gels still cannot replace drugs. When skin problems occur, regular drugs should still be used.

1. Smell the odor. Pure aloe vera gel has a distinct aloe vera smell. This smell is very light and will be absorbed by the skin after use, and will gradually disappear after dozens of minutes. If there is a strong and lingering fragrance, it means that the fragrance has been added. If you have aloe vera planted at home, you can smell the smell of freshly cut aloe vera. 2. Look at the viscosity. Good aloe vera gel is very sticky. Apply a little aloe vera gel on paper and let it stand vertically for 5 seconds. If it slides off, it is fake aloe vera. Also look at its penetration speed. The faster the penetration, the more water it contains and the worse the quality.

2. Look at the color. High-quality aloe vera gel is made entirely of purified aloe vera gel. Its appearance is basically the pale yellow-green color of aloe vera gel, translucent, rather than colorless and transparent. Fully transparent aloe vera gel is generally made of dry powder or contains very little or even no aloe vera gel. Transparent gel is often made by simple synthesis of water and gelling agent.

3. Look at the degree of absorption. The main components of high-quality aloe vera gel products are aloe polysaccharides and glycoproteins, which are both high-molecular compounds. Relatively pure aloe vera gel is completely absorbed. If used correctly, it will not cause mud after use as many consumers say. There will be no solidified residues. Most aloe vera gels are not fully absorbed because they contain many chemical components.

In terms of absorption speed, a good aloe vera gel has high molecular weight and high activity of aloe polysaccharide without adding water, so it is smooth, refreshing and absorbs quickly. The faster the absorption, the higher the activity and content of its active ingredients.

A US study shows that cosmetics with aloe vera content above 40% will have obvious effects after use. Therefore, the higher the aloe vera content between 40% and 100%, the better. Aloe vera content above 100% has a higher purity and is generally not suitable for large-area skin care. It is only suitable for small-area medicinal use! Too high a concentration is harmful to some people with sensitive and fragile skin!
