Comparing Treatment Options

Most people start by using over-the-counter (OTC) products containing either benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid when they first notice an acne outbreak. These products rarely work; in fact, many people notice that their acne gets progressively worse while using these products. Many of the products containing bezoyl peroxide may actually cause the body to increase sebum production to combat dryness.

You may also get a prescription from your doctor for a topical medication containing tretinoin, clindamycin, azelaic acid, and a few other compounds that are effective in preventing the formation of comedones.

Trioxil® (bisazulene gel) 14% is a unique formulation that treats all the underlying causes of acne by preventing proliferation of bacteria, normalizing sebum production, reducing inflammation, and restoring proper pore function. Trioxil® (bisazulene gel) 14% prevents the obstruction of the follicular duct (the main underlying cause of acne) and therefore prevents new blemishes from forming. Unlike other prescription acne medications, Trioxil® (bisazulene gel) 14% will not irritate or dry out the skin. The bisazulene compound is derived from chamomile flowers and has a strong calming effect on the skin. Trioxil® (bisazulene gel) 14% is a very powerful acne medication that simultaneously deeply moisturizes and calms the skin. Unlike other acne treatments, the use of a moisturizer is not required.

Unlike other topical prescription medications, Trioxil® (bisazulene gel) 14% will also improve overall appearance of your complexion while treating acne. You will experience an improvement in the smoothness and radiance of your skin while the acne blemishes gradually fade. Trioxil® also uses DS Laboratories nanosome technology which allows the bisazulene compound to reach into the deepest layers of the epidermis dramatically speeding up the results.

Trioxil® (bisazulene gel) 14% only needs to be applied once a day (preferably before bedtime) and does not need to be refrigerated.

If your acne condition is characterized by deep nodules and cysts then topical medications may not work. You should talk to your physician about a prescription for Accutane®.
