What Is Hypochlorous Acid & Why Is It The Revolutionary New Step In Your Skin Health Routine?

Have you begun to hear a buzz around Hypochlorous Acid? Within this article we will discuss the many uses and benefits of Hypochlorous Acid and why it should be the new addition to your skin health routine. 

What Is Hypochlorous Acid?

So what exactly is Hypochlorous Acid? Hypochlorous Acid works wonders in many ways. HOCl is naturally produced by our white blood cells and is an essential part of our immune system which helps to fight off infections. (1) Due to its impressive healing properties, Hypochlorous Acid is now (rightly so) being widely recognised and is now used in a wide range of health care applications. It is particularly appreciated for its contribution to skin health.

The History of Hypochlorous Acid

Hypochlorous Acid certainly isn't new; it is a natural substance that has been recognised for centuries. It was first identified in 1811, and its remarkable value was initially noted during the first World War, when it was used to treat the wounds of soldiers (2). The discovery of Hypochlorous Acid was then formally published in the British Medical Journal in 1915 (3). Since then, medical experts have worked hard to perfect this substance. It was not until 2015 that the goal was finally achieved by Clinical Health Technologies who are now THE leaders in the Hypochlorous sector. 

The Benefits of Hypochlorous Acid For Skin Health

The reason Hypochlorous is such a sought after chemistry is due to its remarkable combination of being a highly effective antimicrobial whilst also being completely safe to human skin – and in fact all mammals. This means that it can be safely used in a wide range of applications without causing any hard to the skin. It is an excellent non-irritating ingredient for those with sensitive skin. (1)

Hypochlorous Acid can hugely improve skin health as it is highly effective at purifying the skin. It can help to:

  • Fight bacteria that causes clogged pores, breakouts and acne.
  • Speed up wound healing
  • Reduce inflammation
  • Treat and soothe conditions such as eczema or psoriasis. (1)
