Cetraben Lotion contains 3 main ingredients to moisturise dry skin and lock in moisture:
- White Soft Paraffin: this forms a protective barrier on skin surface and decreases transepidermal water loss (TEWL).
- Light Liquid Paraffin: this replaces lost skin oils to increase skin surface lipids (SSL)
- Glycerin: a humectant that attracts and holds water in the outer layers of the skin and compensates for reduced levels of Natural Moisturising Factor (NMF) in diseased and older skin.
Cetraben Lotion is available in 50ml, 200ml and 500ml pump dispensers.
Directions
- Apply to the skin as often as required, or directed by your pharmacist or GP, to ensure continued hydration throughout the day. We recommend that you treat skin as frequently as possible, or as a minimum at least twice a day
- Apply liberally to the affected skin, as often as necessary, ensuring that the area is well covered
- Apply gently in the direction of hair growth until absorbed
- Avoid rubbing vigorously as this could trigger itching, creating more heat in the skin
- Apply emollient before and after you bathe to protect skin from dryness
