PANOXYL BAR 10% (BENZOYL PEROXIDE)
Panoxyl Bar 10% Description
Acne most commonly occurs during adolescence when hormone levels increase. Unfortunately, so does the oily substance called sebum that can break down the cellular walls in the pores and attract Propionibacterium acnes (P. acnes). If you find that you cannot control your outbreaks, talk to your doctor about Panoxyl Bar 10% which contains Benzoyl Peroxide.
We all have bacteria that lives in and on our body and, for the most part, is harmless. With the excess oil from your pores, the P. acnes bacteria have an increased food supply that can cause their population to grow. This is how an infection can start. To avoid this situation, use the Panoxyl Bar 10% to help keep your pores from becoming home to bacteria, oil, and dirt.
Enjoy Clearer Skin with Panoxyl Bar 10%
Panoxyl Bar 10% can be used on your face, chest, and back where acne seems to happen most. The active ingredient is Benzoyl Peroxide which penetrates fast to clean and unclog your pores. Benzoyl Peroxide works in and on your skin where it adds oxygen into your pores to loosen and remove the dirt, oil, and the P. acnes bacteria as they cannot exist in the presence of oxygen. Panoxyl Bar 10% also has anti inflammatory properties that will decrease the redness and pain from the lesions.
As the treatment with Panoxyl Bar 10% continues, your skin becomes brighter and clearer as the acne pimples dry up and the dead skin is washed away and new cells are able to surface. If you notice your skin is too dry after using Panoxyl Bar 10%, ask your doctor about a moisturizer that you can apply between treatments that won’t encourage your skin to become oily again.
Conditions Treated by Panoxyl Bar 10%
Having acne may seem like a part of growing up, but it does not happen to everyone. For those that are affected, acne can cause some adolescents and even adults to be embarrassed about the pimples and red inflammation on their face. Teens may be less likely to join social groups at school and more likely to isolate themselves to avoid any humiliation. There is no cure for acne, but Panoxyl Bar 10% can help you treat and control acne when used as instructed. Be patient when waiting for results after using Panoxyl Bar 10% as it can take several weeks before any changes in your skin will be apparent.
Before Panoxyl Bar 10% is Prescribed
Little, if any, of Panoxyl Bar 10% is absorbed into your bloodstream, which minimizes the risk of drug interactions. Your doctor should be told about other acne meds or preparations you are using to avoid possible side effects.
