An enzyme is a type of chemical exfoliant that is used by estheticians. Basically it is PAC MAN and eat away at the dead skin cells. Enzymes produce immediate and noticeable results, which is why they are loved so much.
Benefits of enzymes include:
-dissolves dead skin cells
-produces visible results
-cleans, smoothes, and tetrxturizes skin
-minimizes fine lines
-helps "open" blocked pores
-aids in product penetration
- accelerates cell turnover
If you are on Glycolic, Retin A, or Accutane, have open wounds, irritated or inflamed skin, or lupus, you are contraindicated for this treatment.
*enzymes can only be done once a month (unless told otherwise by your esthetician) due to cell turnover rates
