Anti-Acne

anti-redness

↓ inflammation

This scientifically formulated skincare solution regulates sebum production, thereby mitigating pore congestion. It employs a 3% concentration of Salicylic acid, a renowned anti-inflammatory agent, which diligently alleviates skin irritation and redness. This ingredient is also known for its potent anti-bacterial properties, effectively cleansing the skin of stubborn impurities.

A distinguishing feature of this cleanser is its inclusion of medical-grade Aloe Vera, a natural ingredient revered for its skin-nourishing capabilities. Aloe Vera imparts soothing and hydrating effects, particularly beneficial for skin dehydration due to other acne treatments.

Pore Control Cleanser is a balanced blend of scientifically proven ingredients that synergistically maintain skin health. It normalizes oil production, dislodges sebum plugs, reduces inflammation, and nourishes the skin, making it a comprehensive solution for maintaining a clear and healthy complexion.

Salicylic acid

Salicylic acid, a renowned beta hydroxy acid (BHA), is a cornerstone in dermatology and skincare due to its exceptional keratolytic and comedolytic properties. Its unique ability to penetrate oil-laden hair follicle pores makes it particularly effective in treating acne-prone and oily skin types.

Salicylic acid dissolves skin debris (sebum and dead skin cells) that clogs pores and causes acne. It's a mild antibacterial and powerful anti-inflammatory agent that helps reduce the redness and swelling associated with breakouts.

What sets salicylic acid apart in dermatological treatments is its ability to exfoliate the skin, not just on the surface but within the pores themselves. This is due to its oil-soluble nature, which allows it to penetrate deep into the pores and dissolve the keratin plugs that lead to blackheads and whiteheads.

Furthermore, salicylic acid also has the capacity to adjust the pH of the skin, creating an environment less favorable for the growth of acne-causing bacteria. Salicylic acid's efficacy in treating various skin conditions, particularly acne, has been extensively documented in the scientific literature. Studies have consistently shown its ability to reduce acne lesions in terms of count and severity. Additionally, salicylic acid is highly recommended for its effectiveness in treating other skin conditions, such as psoriasis and dandruff, due to its ability to soften and remove scales and flakes from the skin.

Physiological Effects

Keratolytic Action: Salicylic acid is known for its ability to exfoliate the skin by dissolving the intercellular 'glue' that holds skin cells together, helping to remove dead skin cells and unclog pores.
Comedolytic Effect: It is particularly effective in reducing comedones (blackheads and whiteheads) by unclogging pores and preventing the formation of new comedones.
Anti-inflammatory Properties: Salicylic acid reduces inflammation, which is beneficial in treating acne and other inflammatory skin conditions.
Sebum Regulation: It helps to regulate oil production, making it a valuable ingredient for managing oily and acne-prone skin.
Penetration Enhancement: Due to its lipophilic nature, it can penetrate sebum-filled follicles, effectively treating acne located deep within the pores.

Role in Managing Dermatological Conditions

Acne Vulgaris: Salicylic acid is a cornerstone in acne treatment, effectively preventing and treating existing acne lesions.
Psoriasis: Its keratolytic properties make it helpful in softening and removing scales associated with psoriasis.
Warts: Salicylic acid is commonly used to treat warts because it can exfoliate and remove thick skin.
Seborrheic Dermatitis: It helps manage seborrheic dermatitis by reducing scaling and redness.
Keratosis Pilaris: Salicylic acid can aid in smoothing the rough bumps associated with keratosis pilaris.

Aloe Vera

Aloe vera is well-regarded for its medicinal applications and has been a staple in skincare and health for centuries. It’s rich in vitamins, enzymes, minerals, and amino acids, contributing to its many skin benefits.

Aloe vera contains polysaccharides, which are crucial in its moisturizing and anti-inflammatory properties. These polysaccharides help bind moisture to the skin, making aloe vera an excellent hydrating agent for dry and damaged skin.

One of the key benefits of aloe vera is its soothing and healing properties, particularly beneficial for burns, abrasions, and skin irritations. It has been shown to accelerate the healing of minor burns and reduce skin inflammation. Various studies have supported its effectiveness in treating first- and second-degree burns, highlighting its role in enhancing collagen synthesis and skin regeneration.

Aloe vera's anti-inflammatory properties are attributed to compounds like glycoproteins and polysaccharides. These compounds help reduce pain and swelling associated with skin irritations and wounds. Aloe vera also contains aloin and emodin, which provide analgesic, antibacterial, and antiviral properties, further extending its therapeutic potential.

Aloe Vera has numerous physiological effects on the skin due to its rich composition of vitamins, enzymes, minerals, and amino acids. The presence of antioxidants such as vitamins C and E, along with beta-carotene, contributes to its anti-aging benefits, helping to improve skin firmness and keep the skin hydrated.

Physiological Effects

Moisturizing and Hydrating: Aloe Vera enhances skin hydration, making it effective for dry and dehydrated skin. Its mucopolysaccharides help to bind moisture into the skin.
Wound Healing: It accelerates wound healing by enhancing collagen synthesis and cross-linking. This effect is particularly useful in healing burns, abrasions, and cuts.
Anti-inflammatory Properties: Aloe Vera contains compounds like aloin and anthraquinones that have anti-inflammatory properties, making it beneficial in reducing skin inflammation.
Antimicrobial Activity: It possesses antimicrobial properties, which help in preventing infections in wounds and burns.
Antioxidant Properties: The presence of vitamins C and E and beta-carotene provides it with antioxidant properties, which can help protect the skin from free radical damage.
Soothing Effect: Aloe Vera is known for its soothing effects on the skin, particularly in conditions like sunburn.

Role in Managing Dermatological Conditions

Burns and Wound Care: Aloe Vera's wound-healing and soothing properties make it effective in treating burns, including sunburns and minor skin abrasions.
Acne Treatment: Due to its antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties, it can help treat acne.

Morning & Evening

Application time: Use in the morning and evening.
Frequency: Every day or as per your Dermal Diagnosis regimen instructions.

Sensitive Skin

Unable to tolerate the product in its most potent form yet

Use only in the evening. In the morning, wipe your face with a lukewarm, wet facecloth or microfibre sponge. This will help remove dead skin that the cleanser dissolves and loosens.
Apply cleanser to a wet face. The water will help neutralize the cleanser and decrease its potency. Be careful when applying the cleanser around your eyes, as the water may cause the cleanser to run into your eyes, which will sting. Rather, avoid the eye area and remove eye makeup (if applicable) with your microfibre sponge, using a small drop of cleanser mixed with water and lathered into the sponge.
Keep the cleanser in contact with your skin for 1 minute or shorter.
Remove the cleanser with a clean, lukewarm face cloth or microfibre face sponge. This will also help remove excess makeup and loose, peeling skin.

Resistant Skin

Able to tolerate the product in its most potent form

Use morning and evening.
Apply to dry skin. If you apply your cleanser to dry skin, you can circulate it over your eyes without burning or stinging.
You may want to dampen your fingers slightly to help with spreading. If you have resistant skin, you should not use too much water while cleaning, as water will alter the pH of the cleanser, rendering it less potent.
Keep the cleanser on your skin for 3 minutes or longer.
Remove the cleanser with a clean, lukewarm face cloth or microfibre face sponge. This will also help remove excess makeup and loose, peeling skin.

Tip: Keep the cleanser on your skin while brushing your teeth, bathing, or getting dressed.
