Calendula extract is one of the most widely used natural remedies for treating mild skin and mucous membrane injuries. Having a cicatrizing, anti-inflammatory, antiseptic, nourishing, moisturizing and emollient action, it ensures rapid healing and regeneration of the skin. Calendula extract is used in numerous dermatological treatments, such as those for ulcers, eczema, cuperosis, psoriasis, stretch marks, but also to relieve the discomfort created by sunburns on the skin, to hydrate and improve the appearance of dry skin, healing small fissures.

Calendula extract has a high content of flavonoids that protect cells from free radicals such as cytokines and C-reactive protein. Linoleic acid is also a natural anti-inflammatory found in Calendula extract. Calendula extract increases the flow of blood and oxygen to wounds and infected areas, which contributes to faster wound healing. Due to its antifungal, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, Calendula extract prevents the development of pathogenic microorganisms, promotes the natural healing of damaged tissues and reduces irritating symptoms.

By reducing inflammation, Calendula extract promotes natural re-epithelialization processes and favors the reduction of discomfort, pain and irritation.
