- Peat peloid for gynoid lipodystrophy: decreased body diameters, improved skin elasticity, reduced subcutaneous fat
- Peloid cosmeceuticals bridge therapeutic balneology and consumer skincare — natural alternative to synthetic ingredients
- Safety and regulation of peloids discussed — EU cosmetic regulation applies to cosmeceutical use
Directly relevant review covering peloids (including peat) specifically in skin care and cosmeceutical contexts. Bridges the gap between therapeutic balneotherapy literature and consumer cosmetic applications. Key reference for face-masks, body-wraps, and cosmetic product development sections of the knowledge graph.
