Voideemulsioonid

Voideemulsioonid, also known as cream emulsions or topical emulsions, are semi-solid preparations used in dermatology and cosmetology for delivering active ingredients to the skin. They consist of a combination of oil and water phases stabilized by emulsifying agents, resulting in a smooth and easily applicable consistency.

These emulsions are typically classified into oil-in-water (O/W) or water-in-oil (W/O) types, depending on the dominant phase. O/W emulsions are more common in cosmetic products as they are lighter, non-greasy, and suitable for hydrating and cleansing purposes. W/O emulsions tend to be more occlusive, providing a protective barrier and better for dry or damaged skin.

Voideemulsioonid are formulated to enhance the absorption of active ingredients, such as medications, vitamins, or botanical extracts. They are used in treatment of skin conditions like eczema, psoriasis, and dermatitis, as well as in cosmetic applications for moisturizing and anti-aging effects.

The choice of emulsifier, stabilizer, and base ingredients influences the properties and efficacy of the emulsion. They are usually packaged in tubes, jars, or bottles for ease of application and preservation.

Due to their versatility, voideemulsioonid are a popular form of topical therapy and skincare. Proper formulation ensures stability, non-irritancy, and suitable release of active substances, making them integral to both medicinal and cosmetic dermatology.
