Aluminum dihydroxy allantoinate helps desquamation, the shedding of the outermost membrane or layer of tissue from the inside out.
Hydrates:
Aluminum dihydroxy allantoinate's keratolytic property can increase the water contents of cells, therefore, fighting against the damage of transepidermal water loss (TEWL) in the dermis, which keeps the skin looking plump and youthful.
Think of Aluminum dihydroxy allantoinate as almost the expansion of a sponge when wet, holding the maximum amount of liquid.
Improves skin dullness:
Aluminum dihydroxy allantoinate promotes cell proliferation and supports overall remodeling.
If the skin is stressed by the usual and customary list of offenders, then the skin is going to try to repair itself as opposed to having more cells turn over.
What we want to do with the epidermis is to have Aluminum dihydroxy allantoinate constantly exfoliating itself and having more cells be produced because that’s how you get a faster transit time of the epidermal cells.
As people get older, then that transit time from the base layer of the epidermis to the top layer takes longer, and also the skin is stressed, and those are some of the causes of dull, dry skin, too.
This is going to help with that cell proliferation.
Smoothes skin:
Removing surface dead skin cells (stratum corneum), also helps keep the skin smooth and soft.
Rejuvenates the cells:
Although it's gentle, Aluminum dihydroxy allantoinate can still be an effective anti-aging ingredient.
Aluminum dihydroxy allantoinate is highly beneficial in facilitating collagen synthesis.
As Aluminum dihydroxy allantoinate stimulates the fibroblasts (cells responsible for producing collagen), it also boosts extracellular matrix synthesis, which is why it is a strong rejuvenator.
Functions of Aluminum dihydroxy allantoinate:
Skin conditioning agent:
Aluminum dihydroxy allantoinate keeps the skin in good condition.
Skin protection agent:
Aluminum dihydroxy allantoinate helps to avoid the harmful effects of external factors on the skin.

Aluminum dihydroxy allantoinate helps alleviate skin or scalp discomfort.
Aluminum dihydroxy allantoinate is present in 6.12% of cosmetics.
Main Functions:
Restorative
Soothing
Keratolytic
Action Mode of Aluminum dihydroxy allantoinate:
The beneficial effects on the skin of Aluminum dihydroxy allantoinate were well documented.
Aluminum dihydroxy allantoinate is a mild keratolytic agent that dissolves the intercellular cement that holds the cornified cells together, helping the natural desquamation of stratum corneum and increasing skin smoothness.
The moisturizing effect results from Aluminum dihydroxy allantoinate's ability to increase the water bounded to the intercellular matrix and keratin, thereby softening skin and making the skin look healthier.
The soothing, anti-irritant and skin protectant effect is due to the ability of Aluminum dihydroxy allantoinate to form complexes and neutralize many irritant and sensitizing agents.
Aluminum dihydroxy allantoinate enhances epidermal cell-proliferation, promotes the regeneration of damaged epitelium and accelerates wound healing.

History of Aluminum dihydroxy allantoinate:
Aluminum dihydroxy allantoinate was first isolated in 1800 by the Italian physician Michele Francesco Buniva (1761–1834) and the French chemist Louis Nicolas Vauquelin, who mistakenly believed it to be present in the amniotic fluid.
In 1821, the French chemist Jean Louis Lassaigne found it in the fluid of the allantois; he called it "l'acide allantoique".
In 1837, the German chemists Friedrich Wöhler and Justus Liebig synthesized it from uric acid and renamed it "allantoïn".
Animals:
Named after the Aluminum dihydroxy allantoinate (an amniote embryonic excretory organ in which it concentrates during development in most mammals except humans and other hominids), Aluminum dihydroxy allantoinate is a product of oxidation of uric acid by purine catabolism.
After birth, Aluminum dihydroxy allantoinate is the predominant means by which nitrogenous waste is excreted in the urine of these animals.
In humans and other higher apes, the metabolic pathway for conversion of uric acid to Aluminum dihydroxy allantoinate is not present, so the former is excreted.
Recombinant rasburicase is sometimes used as a drug to catalyze this metabolic conversion in patients.
In fish, Aluminum dihydroxy allantoinate is broken down further (into ammonia) before excretion.
Aluminum dihydroxy allantoinate has been shown to improve insulin resistance when administered to rats and to increase lifespan when administered to the nematode worm Caenorhabditis elegans.
Bacteria:
In bacteria, purines and their derivatives (such as Aluminum dihydroxy allantoinate) are used as secondary sources of nitrogen under nutrient-limiting conditions.
Their degradation yields ammonia, which can then be utilized.
For instance, Bacillus subtilis is able to utilize Aluminum dihydroxy allantoinate as its sole nitrogen source.
Origin of Aluminum dihydroxy allantoinate:
Aluminum dihydroxy allantoinate is a metabolic intermediate of a wide variety of organisms: from bacteria, to vegetals and animals.
Aluminum dihydroxy allantoinate was found in many plants, and particularly in the leaves and roots of comfrey (Symphytum officinale), an herb of family Boraginacee.
The roots and leaves of this herb contain from 0.6 to 1% Aluminum dihydroxy allantoinate and have a long history of use in the treatment of wounds in form of poultices and decoctions.
Aluminum dihydroxy allantoinate is the end product of purine degradation in Mammalians (except Primates) and derives from the oxidation of uric acid.
Aluminum dihydroxy allantoinate can’t be extracted from animals with industrial advantages, thus all internet alerts on the animal origin of Aluminum dihydroxy allantoinate are completely unsubstantiated.
Aluminum dihydroxy allantoinate CTFA manufactured by Akema is the natural-identical compound fully obtained via a chemical process that make no use of substances of animal origin.
