Verified Ingredients and Effects

Uses:

Acne (pimples), Psoriasis 

Medicinal Benefits:

Caresalic-12 Ointment contains ‘Salicylic acid’ used to treat acne (pimples) by exfoliating the skin and keeping pores clear. It is an organic compound with an irritant, keratolytic (removes warts and calluses), comedolytic (inhibits the formation of blemishes) and anti-inflammatory activity. Caresalic-12 Ointment reduces inflammation and unplugs blocked pores (whiteheads) or open pores (blackheads). Caresalic-12 Ointment increases the upper layer of skin cells' turnover rate, which eventually helps in peeling the skin and treating comedones (skin-coloured, small bumps due to acne). Caresalic-12 Ointment also has a mild drying effect that allows excess oils and dirt to be washed away from the skin. Caresalic-12 Ointment is also used to treat skin conditions that involve scaling or overgrowths of skin cells, such as psoriasis (a skin disease in which red, scaly patches form on some body areas), ichthyoses (inborn conditions that cause skin dryness and scaling) and prevention of dandruff in the scalp area.
