Foam "Panthenol"

With the onset of the first warm days in pharmacies, the demand for drugs that promote skin healing increases sharply, which is not surprising, because a pleasant vacation on the beach or chores in the country can often present a “surprise” in the form of burnt skin on the face and body, not to mention abrasions on knees and scratches in inquisitive and active children. In such cases, spray foam will become an indispensable assistant for you. "Panthenol".

The action of the drug is ensured by the presence in its composition of dexpanthenol, which is a provitamin B5 (pantothenic acid). This substance activates the processes of regeneration of the dermis and mucous membranes in the body. With damage to the skin and tissues, the need for pantothenic acid increases. Dexpanthenol is able to make up for this deficiency - once on the surface of the skin, it is quickly absorbed and penetrates even into its deepest layers, turning into pantothenic acid. That is why, in the treatment of burns, it is preferable to use drugs with this component.

• Abrasions, scratches, cracks in the skin;
• Treatment of uninfected wounds, including postoperative;

• Restoration of transplanted skin areas.

According to the instructions for use, the spray must be sprayed onto the affected area up to 4 times a day. The balloon must be held vertically. In order to obtain a sufficiently thick foam, the container with the drug must be shaken well several times. A thin film is formed under the layer of foam applied to the skin, which prevents moisture loss and accelerates the regeneration process. You do not need to rub the foam, it will quickly absorb into the skin.

The use of a spray for burns is also good because it eliminates the need to touch the burned skin, which means there will be no unnecessary discomfort. Additional components that make up the foam will help the active substance to penetrate faster and deeper into the focus of inflammation and create a cooling effect.
