      Frequently Asked Questions

      Introduction to sensitised skin and how to identify symptoms

      A diminished immune response can be genetic or exacerbated by various factors:
      • Excessive sun exposure
      • Environmental toxins
      • Poor nutrition and a lack of protein
      • Harsh soaps and certain cosmetics
      • Cigarette smoke, inhaled or second-hand, which constricts the blood vessels and reduces the amount of oxygen reaching skin tissue

      Sensitivity is often triggered by a warning signal from the Langerhans cells — receptors that register the presence of foreign agents and toxins in the skin. The Langerhans cells stimulate an allergic response, known as a histamine reaction, when they come into contact with skin irritants.

      To calm sensitised skin and “turn the red off,” irritated and reddened skin requires care from a skincare professional who understands the reactive nature of this concern.

      DermaFix ACC Copper has a soothing and calming effect. Ensure that you use the correct DermaFix cleanser and avoid soap-based products.

      After the cleansing routine, apply DermaFix ACC Copper to calm the skin and reduce red, inflammatory conditions. Follow with the application of DermaFix Vitamin B Cream, which promotes skin healing while providing the deep moisturisation needed to combat sensitive skin. DermaFix Argan Oil can be applied over the above-mentioned products to alleviate discomfort associated with dryness and sensitivity.

      Protect your skin from the sun’s harmful UVA and UVB rays with DermaFix DermaShield SPF40 High Protection sunscreen containing Zinc Oxide.
      • A three-month evaluation is required for optimum results.
      • For eczema or psoriasis, use DermaFix Skin ResQ, a weightless, nourishing emollient blend with Murumuru Seed Butter and CoQ10.
      • The addition of the DermaFix Colloidal Oat Masque two to three times a week helps repair the skin’s barrier, relieve redness, and calm sensitivity.

      Cleanse with DermaFix Hydra-Silk Cleanser, an emollient based milky cleanser, or DermaFix Gentle Cleansing Gel, a mild botanical rich cleanser with anti-inflammatory properties. Follow with the application of DermaFix Revitalising Toner, an important step to prepare the skin for the absorption of active ingredients into the skin.
