EXTRACT FROM WOOD TREES OF GENUS ABIES

摘要

The invention refers to the extract from the wood of the fir tree (Abies) genus, preferentially silver fir (Abies alba) wood, in particular from knots, which contain a compound of natural polyphenols with a reduced share of high molecular polyphenols, namely by 15-100% considering the total content of natural polyphenols, and with an analogously increased share of low molecular polyphenols with a molar mass below 1,000 Da, used to prevent, reduce and treat unwanted skin changes in cosmetic and dermatological use, namely the extract alone or in the form of formulated cosmetic and pharmaceutical preparations for cosmetic and dermatological use. Since the share of high molecular polyphenols in the extract is significantly lower and the share of low molecular polyphenols significantly higher than in the compounds or extracts of fir trees known until now, skin penetration is substantially improved. The extract is used either in the form of a concentrate or a solid, a dry compound for dermal use directly or in the form of liquid, semi-solid and solid preparations, such as dermal liquids, including sprays, drops, shampoos and compresses, dermal powders (dusting powders), hydrophilic gels, hydrophilic creams, hydrophobic creams, ointments, pastes, plasters and others.
