What does it mean that Dermol has antimicrobial properties?
Antimicrobial properties mean that Dermol kills microorganisms or stops their growth on the skin. This can help when treating skin conditions such as eczema and dermatitis as it helps combat bacteria on the skin that can worsen the symptoms. The antimicrobial properties can also help prevent inflammation caused by scratching itchy skin.
What precautions should be taken when using Dermol Wash?
Avoid getting Dermol Wash in the eyes, especially when using it on the face. If used in the bath or shower, it can make the surface slippery, so be careful to avoid slipping over when getting into and out of your shower or bath. If you have very sensitive skin, it is generally a good idea to start any new treatment on a small test area first, in case any side effect occurs.
Can Dermol wash be used on the face?
Yes, Dermol Wash can be used on the entire body, including the face. Take causing to avoid getting it in your eyes.
What should be done if Dermol Wash gets into the eyes?
If Dermol Wash gets into the eyes, rinse them with plenty of water. If irritation persists, seek medical advice.
