Q: |
How does Trioxil® work? |
|
|
A: |
The precise mode of action of Trioxil® is not known. However, our research shows that Trioxil® attacks acne in several ways; by inhibiting the proliferation of bacteria, normalizing sebum production, reducing inflammation, and restoring proper pore function by preventing "stickiness" of the pores. Trioxil® prevents future outbreaks since the pores can more easily pass sebum to the surface of the skin without becoming blocked.

Q: |
What kind of results should I expect with Trioxil®? |
|
|
A: |
Improvements will take place gradually as the formation of new blemishes stops and existing blemishes start to heal. It is important to be patient and stick to the treatment without skipping applications. Since Trioxil® does not irritate the skin, you may notice a slight improvement after just a few days of use due to a reduction in inflammation and the calming effect on the skin. Full results from Trioxil® treatment will be seen after 12 weeks of use.

Q: |
What are the possible side effects of Trioxil®? |
|
|
A: |
Unlike other medications containing tretinoin, benzoyl peroxide, or azelaic acid, Trioxil® has very high tolerability and will not irritate or burn the skin. However, you may feel mild stinging when you apply Trioxil®. This feeling is normal. While you use Trioxil® to treat acne, it will at the same time deeply moisturize and nourish the skin eliminating the need for a moisturizer.

Q: |
What are Nanosomes and how do they work? |
|
|
A: |
Trioxil® uses the DS Laboratories advanced nanosome technology. Nanosomes are tiny capsules that carry the active ingredients deep into the epidermis tissue and release them over a 12 hour period. This dramatically enhances the effectiveness of the bisazulene compound and speeds up the results.

Q: |
How often should I apply Trioxil® medication? |
|
|
A: |
Trioxil® should be applied only once a day, preferably before bedtime. Apply only a thin layer - more is not better. To apply the medication, dab Trioxil® on your forehead, chin and both cheeks and then spread it over your face. Don't spot treat pimples by putting a dab on each pimple. Trioxil works by applying a thin layer over the entire face.

Q: |
What can Trioxil® do for my skin that over-the-counter acne medications can't? |
|
|
A: |
Trioxil® is a breakthrough acne medication that works very differently from over-the-counter (OTC) preparations. OTC products typically dry out the skin to eliminate oil and kill bacteria on the skin. However, in most cases these products can actually make your acne worse by over drying the skin and causing irritation and redness in addition to acne. Trioxil® contains the bisazulene compound that actually calms and moisturizes the skin while killing bacteria, controlling sebum production, and restoring proper pore function. The key difference is that OTC preparations typically do not address the problem of "stickiness" within the pore structure - the main underlying cause of acne.

Can I go out in the sun while using Trioxil®? |

|
Q: |
What happens to my skin during treatment with Trioxil®? |
|
|
A: |
Depending on the severity of your condition, your acne may temporarily get worse in the first 2 weeks of treatment. This is due to the elimination of dead cells and sebum from the pores and means that the medication is working properly. It is important to not get discouraged during this period and continue with the treatment plan. However, since Trioxil® has powerful calming and anti-inflammatory effects on the skin many people see an improvement after just a few days of use.

|
Q: |
What will happen if I apply too much Trioxil®? |
|

|
|
|
Q: |
Can I use an over-the-counter products that contain benzoyl peroxide or salycilic acid while also using Trioxil®? |
