EUCERIN AQUAPHOR protective ointment for damaged skin 45ml
Aquaphor ointment for very dry, cracked skin
The skin works hard to protect our body, but as a result, it can sometimes become very dry, cracked, and irritated. It urgently needs care.
Eucerin Aquaphor Protective Ointment for Damaged Skin provides dry to very dry, chapped and irritated skin with the SOS care it needs . The water-free ointment forms a gentle semi-occlusive protective barrier on the skin that supports the natural transfer of water vapour and oxygen to and from the skin, allowing the skin to “breathe” and strengthen its natural barrier function. The ointment is enriched with Glycerin and Panthenol. Glycerin is an effective humectant that attracts water and helps it to stay in the skin. It works together with Panthenol, which helps to accelerate the regeneration and repair of the skin, while moisturizing it.
Eucerin Aquaphor Protective Ointment for Damaged Skin is fragrance and preservative-free and is clinically and dermatologically proven to repair very dry, cracked or irritated skin.
The soothing, clear ointment is easy to apply and gently rubs into problem areas such as the skin on the knees and elbows, cracked knuckles, cuticles and cracked heels. Containing only a few ingredients, it is well tolerated by sensitive skin and is suitable for use on babies and children, as well as for minor burns and after superficial dermatological procedures such as laser therapy and chemical peels 1 . The skin is regenerated, protected and restored.
- 1 Eucerin Aquaphor Protective Ointment for Damaged Skin should only be used on re-epithelialized skin (i.e. after new tissue has formed) and not on open, wet or bleeding wounds. Ask your dermatologist how long you should wait after treatment before using the product.
