Traditional photon cold gels mainly focus on the energy conduction function. However, with the increasing emphasis of consumers on comfort experience and skin health, as well as the potential thermal stimulation and temporary injury brought by photodynamic beauty technology itself, the market demand for multi-functional photon cold gels with "cooling, soothing, and skin protection" is growing.
Pingchuang Medical Group keeps pace with market trends and regards the research and development of multi-functional photon cold gels as one of the important directions, committed to providing users with a more comfortable and safer treatment experience through formula innovation.
The cooling function is one of the core demands of multi-functional photon cold gels. The heat generated during photodynamic therapy (especially IPL and laser) is the main cause of pain, swelling, and even burns. The multi-functional gel developed by Pingchuang Medical focuses on optimizing its physical cooling performance. Based on high-water-content hydrogels, it utilizes the high specific heat capacity of water to absorb heat. At the same time, it may explore adding certain safe components with better thermal conductivity or phase change heat absorption properties to more effectively conduct or absorb excess heat on the skin surface, reduce the temperature of the epidermis, enhance the comfort during the treatment process, and provide security for selecting optimal treatment parameters.
The soothing function aims to alleviate the immediate discomfort and subsequent inflammatory response caused by treatment. The research and development team of Pingchuang Medical has selected a series of natural plant extracts or active ingredients with soothing, anti-inflammatory, and calming effects. On the premise of ensuring their stability, compatibility, and compliance with regulations, these ingredients are added to the guide light gel formula. For example, classic aloe vera extract, chamomile extract, portulaca oleracea extract, beta-boswellia, and potassium glycyrrhizinate all have good soothing effects. Gels containing these ingredients can immediately soothe the stimulated skin during treatment, alleviate burning sensation, tingling, and redness.
Protecting the skin barrier function is also an important consideration in research and development. Photodynamic therapy may temporarily weaken the skin barrier function. Adding appropriate moisturizers (such as glycerin, sodium hyaluronate, panthenol, etc.) and skin barrier repair ingredients (such as ceramide analogs, squalane, etc., which require careful evaluation) to the guide light gel helps maintain skin moisture during treatment, reduce transepidermal water loss, and assist in the recovery of skin barrier function after treatment. This has a positive impact on improving the overall therapeutic effect and reducing postoperative adverse reactions.
Of course, all multifunctional additions must be made without affecting the core energy conduction performance and safety. The research and development team of Pingchuang Medical will carefully evaluate the impact of the added ingredients on the gel's transmittance (or thermal/conductive properties), viscosity, stability, and biocompatibility, and verify them through strict testing. Ensuring that the multifunctional guide light gel provides additional benefits while maintaining its basic performance and safety is reliable.
The production process also requires high standards of assurance. Pingchuang Medical adheres to the production in a 100,000-class clean room and follows GMP regulations to ensure that the purity and quality stability of the multifunctional gel containing various active ingredients are guaranteed.
Pingchuang Medical's research and exploration in the field of multifunctional photon cold gel (cooling, soothing, protecting the skin) aims to meet the growing demand of the market for more comfortable, safer, and more value-added products. By collaborating with Pingchuang Medical, beauty equipment brands or salons can provide their customers with photon cold gel products that go beyond basic functions and offer a better experience, thereby establishing a differentiated competitive advantage, enhancing customer satisfaction, and brand value.
