Extracted from onions (Allium Cepa) with a focus on extracting the active ingredient Quercetin to a high concentration. Has properties to prevent scarring. It has an anti-inflammatory effect. and anti-oxidants

(Minimum Quercetin Content 2.8-3.2%)

Hi-Quercetin® is Quercetin extracted from onions (Allium Cepa) with an exceptionally high concentration of Quercetin. (Minimum Quercetin Content 2.8-3.2%) has the ability to help heal scars, helps heal wounds (wound healing) and reduces the chance of scarring (excessive dermal scarring) and has anti-inflammatory effects. (anti-inflamatory) neutralizes free radicals (anti-oxidant) and anti-allergic (anti-histamine)

According to research, Quercetin can help prevent 2 types of scars.

1. Keloid, keloid or raised scar.

2.Hypertrophic Scar

Important : According to research, Quercetin cannot help heal scars that have already occurred. But it will help prevent scarring. Only after the wound has formed Therefore, it should be used after the wound is completely closed. continuously But it should not be used when ahypertrophic scar has already formed.

In addition to Quercetin's generally accepted anti-scar properties, Quercetin itself is also effective in reducing irritation. Restores the skin barrier (skin-barrier) and has very good antioxidant efficiency.

From the experimental results The anti-irritation and allergy reduction aspect of Hi-Quercetin® is by stimulating the skin to become irritated with SLS (Sodium Lauryl Sulfate) and then measuring the level of water loss in the skin, which creates a skin-barrier. Destroyed by SLS, it was found that when using Hi-Quercetin®, it was able to clearly prevent skin water loss.

From the results of the experiment measuring the amount of Basophil degranulation which are cells that occur when skin allergies occur. It was found that when using Hi-Quercetin® compared to using Hyaluronic Acid to inhibit skin allergic reactions. Hi-Quercetin® is more effective than Hyaluronic Acid in inhibiting Basophil degranulation.

From the experiment, UV induced oxidative stress (the formation of free radicals on the skin which is stimulated by UVA light) Hi-Quercetin® was found to have better antioxidant efficiency for the skin than Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C).

Please study more information. About the research results Related to anti-allergic effects (anti-histamine), anti-inflammatory effect (anti-inflamatory) neutralizes free radicals (anti-oxidant) can be obtained from the brochure.
