Pigmentoceutical

The search for active molecules, helped by African ethnobotanical know how, has allowed us to develop the Pigmentoceutical biotechnology emulsion with vegetal skin whitening complex. The plant Mitracarpe (Mitracarpus scaber) contained in the active substance of the product is well known – among other symptoms – for its antimicrobial activity; it heals dermatoses and mycoses. The leaves of the plant are ground, the juice is extracted and applied to the sites to be treated. The most original activity is shown by ground and dried leaves that are mixed together with Shea butter. This ointment is used locally to treat brown spots and to whiten the skin. The specialists have thus sought to obtain an extract of this plant that preserves and concentrates these properties. The company Herb-pharma AG developed the biotechnology emulsion Pigmentoceutical which is a composition of the Mitracarpe extract with Uva ursi and the hydroglycol solution and removes primarily the strongly pigmented epidermal cells.
