METHOD OF USING PEELABLE FILM-FORMING COMPOSITION

摘要

The compositions and methods of this invention relate to peelable film-forming compositions that may be applied to and removed from the skin containing polyvinyl alcohols and adhesion-enhancing polymers.

主权项

1. A method of treating skin with a peelable, adhesive film-forming composition, said method comprising:
spreading a composition comprising the following ingredients onto the skin:
(a) a high molecular weight polyvinyl alcohol;(b) an adhesion enhancing polymer selected from the group consisting of polyesters, polyurethanes, polyvinylcaprolactam, and a combination thereof, said adhesion enhancing polymer component; and(c) a low molecular weight polyvinylalcohol component; allowing said composition to dry completely when applied to human skin to form a film; on the skin to form a film; and peeling the film from the skin with an adhesive force of about 5 to about 25 ounces to remove the film with undesirable material from the skin without damaging the skin or disrupting the outer layer of the skin.
