It is ideal for use in dry, chapped or cracked skin and wherever the skin is sensitive, irritated or inflamed. SBR-Lipocream® is a unique, lipid-rich formulation containing some 70% lipids and designed to provide the optimum combination of effectiveness and cosmetic acceptability. Summary information: SBR-Lipocream® has been recommended by your dermatologist, doctor or pharmacist as a supportive therapy designed to help treat chronic dry skin disorders. The repair and maintenance of skin barrier function is important in protecting the skin against many disorders which cause dry, chapped and cracked skin, sensitivity, irritation or inflammation and also against the repeated use of water, detergents and other irritants. For the skin's natural barrier to function properly, it is important that there are sufficient oils on the surface of the skin and, equally, that there are sufficient so-called "barrier lipids" in the outer layers of the skin. SBR-Lipocream® is designed to replenish the oils on the surface of the skin and also to help the natural processes of "barrier repair" in the outer layers of the skin. Additional information: What should you know about your skin? The skin is the largest organ of the body and has several important functions, one of which is to serve as a water permeability barrier to keep body fluids in and prevent dehydration. This function takes place in the epidermis or outer layer of the skin, specifically in a layer known as the stratum corneum. Normally, the passage of water through the skin is closely controlled and a certain amount is allowed to pass through in order to ensure that the outer layers of the skin remain properly hydrated. This helps to ensure proper barrier function. In normal healthy skin which is naturally pliable and elastic, the stratum corneum typically has a water content of 10-20%. When the water content falls too low, the natural barrier function is impaired and the skin becomes more susceptible to skin disease and more sensitive to repeated use of water, detergents and other irritants. What are the causes of damage to the skin barrier? Damage to the skin barrier can be caused by a variety of external factors of which excessive use of soap and water or other irritants, exposure to chemicals and ultra-violet radiation are but a few. In certain skin diseases the skin barrier is damaged due to the disorder itself. What are the signs of damage to the skin barrier? Physical clues to skin barrier disfunction include loss of elasticity and pliability, redness, excessive dryness, chapping, cracking and scaling. Your dermatologist, doctor or pharmacist will help you recognize these warning signs. What is SBR-Lipocream®? SBR-Lipocream® has been specially designed for the repair and maintenance of the skin barrier. It contains no fragrances, has a very low potential to cause irritation, is hypoallergenic and non-comedogenic. SBR-Lipocream® is a departure from standard ointments or creams and consists of a unique base in which 70% oil is dispersed in 30% water. This important scientific breakthrough makes SBR-Lipocream® optimally effective yet cosmetically acceptable - a combination of benefits long-awaited by dermatologists and their patients.
