Solcoseryl is a very effective product, actively used not only in medicine, but also in cosmetology, as it helps eliminate many skin problems. Solcoseryl is often used for acne, to eliminate spots after acne and acne, but the drug should be used only when prescribed by a doctor and observing certain conditions.
Release form of the drug and its composition
The main active component of the product is a special natural substance obtained from the blood of young and dairy calves, purified from fibrinogen (protein elements). The substance contains many natural beneficial components that are natural for the human body. Solcoseryl preparations contain important:
- Oligopeptides;
- Nucleotides;
- Amino acids;
- Glucoproteins.
In pharmacy chains under this brand you can find several types of products, in particular, ointments, injection solutions, paste and gel. To eliminate cosmetic defects and various skin diseases, it is recommended to use a gel form of the product or ointment, the consistency of which is different.
The gel has a lighter structure, penetrates the skin better, it can be applied even to open fresh wounds, it perfectly eliminates inflammation and itching. The gel form contains the active substance at a concentration of 10%.
Solcoseryl ointment has a denser structure and contains 5% of the main substance. This form of the drug is used to accelerate the treatment of healing dry wounds and prevent them from becoming infected. In cosmetology, ointment is used to eliminate acne, dry pimples, and marks after their treatment. The ointment has a rather greasy structure, so it is difficult to wash off, unlike the gel form.
Why can’t solcoseryl rejuvenate?
During this time, I studied the theory of the issue a little and found out this. The main active ingredients of solcoseryl are the same unpronounceable “ deproteinized dialysate from the blood of dairy calves” - a set of complex organic substances isolated from the blood of animals during special processing. These are amino acids, fragments of proteins and nucleic acids. And the fact is that the molecules of these substances are quite large - too large to penetrate the epidermis and act on deep skin cells.
In the case of wound healing, this does not interfere with solcoseryl, since the epidermis on the wound or burn is damaged, and the ointment easily penetrates inside.
But it cannot penetrate , even with the help of the conductor dimexide; at best, the smallest part of the magic dialysate enters the skin.
And what is expected of it - supplying cells with oxygen, stimulating collagen production, activating metabolism and regeneration - solcoseryl cannot do on intact skin.
Accordingly, all the stories about the miraculous rejuvenating effect of solcoseryl are either an advertising gimmick or the result of the effect of a fatty, Vaseline ointment on young, problem-free skin, which reacts positively to washing with water.
In a word, a miracle did not happen again. And solcoseryl is not to blame for this - it is a wonderful medicinal drug that has helped out more than once when used for its intended purpose. And we’ll come up with something else against wrinkles, because, as already mentioned, all means are good in the fight against them.

Effect of the drug on the skin
For cosmetic purposes, to combat acne and marks after it, Solcoseryl is used due to its high efficiency, which is ensured by its special properties, in particular, when the drug comes into contact with the skin:
- Penetrates into the deep layers of the skin, exerting a rapid effect at the molecular level, stimulating metabolic processes in the cells of the affected areas and increasing the saturation of tissues with oxygen.
- Delivers to the affected areas many components necessary to accelerate the healing process.
- Accelerates the processes of restoration of damaged cells.
- Helps improve the processes of cellular absorption of oxygen molecules.
- Accelerates the formation of epithelial layers in the affected areas.
- Promotes the active production of collagen fibers, which is of particular importance when treating acne and eliminating marks after it.
But, to obtain the most positive result, it is very important to use Solcoseryl correctly.
Methods of using the drug
When treating acne, Solcoseryl is recommended to be used in the form of masks in its pure form or by mixing the ointment with the drug Dimexide, which further improves the process of supply of nutrients to the cells. In addition, this combination of drugs helps open pores and increases blood circulation.
It is best to apply masks from this product in the evening, before going to bed, since during this period the skin has maximum susceptibility to all nutritional and medicinal components.
The combination of drugs can be used in two ways:
- In the first case, Dimexide diluted according to the instructions is first applied to the washed skin with a cotton pad. After it is absorbed, the skin should be treated with Solcoseryl, applying it in a thin layer without rubbing. It is recommended to carry out the procedure before bedtime, leaving the mask on until the morning. In most cases, after applying Dimexide, a burning sensation of the skin occurs, which is a normal reaction and is not a cause for concern. If the burning sensation is severe, the drug should be diluted by adding more water.
- In the second case, diluted Dimexide is mixed with an equal amount of Solcoseryl, mixed thoroughly and applied to washed skin. The resulting product should be distributed over the entire surface of the face (excluding the areas around the eyes), but special attention should be paid to areas with skin lesions. The course of treatment with this composition is designed for 30 days, subject to daily application at night, after which you should take a break of 2 weeks and repeat the course.
In addition, Solcoseryl can be used independently, applying the drug to the affected areas of the skin and leaving it for several hours or overnight.
Use in its pure form
What is the easiest way to use Solcoseryl? You should not use ointment for wrinkles under the eyes; it is better to choose a gel form. Why so, read below. It is applied in the evenings. You should first cleanse your skin. Be sure to remove all makeup from your eyelids, carefully and thoroughly. Apply the cream in a thin layer and leave it on overnight. And in the morning, wash it off with water. It is worth using a cleanser with a mild and gentle composition.

How to use the drug correctly
Since Solcoseryl is a potent drug, it is necessary to use it to treat acne, following certain rules, in particular:
- The drug can cause an allergic reaction, so before using it it is necessary to conduct a standard sensitivity test by applying a little ointment (gel) to the inside of the elbow joint. If there is intolerance, a negative reaction appears within 30 to 60 minutes.
- Before applying the mask, the skin should be thoroughly cleansed, for which you can wash your face with laundry soap. After this, you need to apply a hot compress to the skin for steaming. These measures are necessary to ensure that medicinal and beneficial substances better penetrate into the deep layers of the skin through open pores.
- To prepare masks, it is best to use the gel form of the drug, since when applied to the skin, this product retains its structure. Ointment, unlike gel, when applied, begins to melt from the warmth of the skin and spreads.
- It is important to prevent medications from getting into your eyes.
- If Solcoseryl is used in combination with Dimexide, it is important to properly dilute the medicine with water in the required proportion. If you use Dimexide undiluted, you can get a fairly serious burn to the epidermis.
- Most experts recommend leaving masks with this drug on all night, but you don’t have to do this. In fact, more than 90% of all beneficial and medicinal substances penetrate the skin within the first hour after applying the products, so such masks can be washed off after 1 - 2 hours.
- The remnants of the mask should be carefully removed with a cotton swab, then wash your face with warm clean water using your usual product, blot with a napkin and immediately apply moisturizer.
