• Use daily and/or evening or follow your Dermal Diagnosis treatment plan directions.

Unlike moisturisers, topical triple physiologic lipid-based technology amplifies lipid production and replenishes the lamellar bilayers that are critical for normal barrier function and antimicrobial defence.

Topically applied physiologic lipids, in contrast to moisturisers, do not form an occlusive layer on the SC surface. Instead, they are quickly absorbed into the underlying nucleated cell layers, where they incorporate into lamellar bodies.

This Barrier Repair Therapy furthermore reduce inflammation by several mechanisms.

This leads to a smoother surface with less friction and greater light refraction.

DRY SKIN:

Dry skin is characterised by the lack of moisture in the stratum corneum (SC). This is the outermost skin layer.

Water is the major softener of the skin, and when levels are low, cracks and fissures occur.

For the skin to appear and feel normal, the water content of the SC must be greater than 10%.

A disruption or defect in the skin’s permeability barrier, allows excessive water to be lost from within the skin into the atmosphere. Referred to as transepidermal water loss (TEWL).

When skin becomes too dry, the outer skin layers stiffen and may develop cracks. The cracks become fissures in the skin that become irritated, inflamed, and itchy.
