A cream that is highly effective in healing skin after various hair removal methods such as shaving, tweezing, waxing, electrolysis, laser treatments.
All hair removal methods cause a certain amount of skin damage that can allow
skin penetration by viruses and bacteria. For example, warts seem to start from
injured or broken skin. Common warts usually grow where skin has been irritated
or shaved, such as where fingernails are bitten or hangnails pulled. In adults,
warts tend to grow where hair removal procedures damage the skin. This is the
beard area on men and on the legs in women. Skin irritation from shaving or hair
removal methods lets the virus invade the skin.
Persons who are at risk for serious skin damage include those with:
- Diabetes
- Eczema and dry, cracking skin
- Psoriasis
- Immune-compromised status (HIV, cancer treatment)
- Bedridden or in wheelchairs
- Skin allergies such as to nickel or poison ivy
- Fingers and cuticles after the use of nail polish removers
- Skin after removal procedures
We recommend using this skin repair cream to speed skin recovery and close
the skin's surface to viruses and bacteria. The typical post-shaving products,
and other products for use after hair removal, help soothe the skin, but
have no significant skin repair properties. BioHeal has been shown to stimulate
skin repair in four independent, published clinical trials. BioHeal was invented by Dr. Loren Pickart and is the most advanced version of
his highly successful Copper-Peptide tissue regeneration technology. It contains
the clinically-proven and patented copper-peptides that form a repair-promoting
protective film over the skin and also act as a superoxide dismutase that can
help de-toxify oxygen radicals that delay skin repair. BioHeal also rebuilds the
skin's natural protective and anti-oxidant "acid mantle", enhances the
skin's recovery of health after many types of skin irritations, skin damage and
rashes. BioHeal contains healing accelerators plus menthol and camphor to help
diminish skin pain. Directions: BioHeal is applied as a thin film once or twice daily to skin that is in
danger of breakdown. At this stage, the skin may be dry, cracking, itching and
reddish. In persons with psoriasis, the cream often reduces itching and flaking
and thins the lesions. If there is a damage of infection, a pre-washing of the
skin with 3% Hydrogen Peroxide works well. Ingredients: Copper Peptides, Menthol, Camphor. Product Reviews and Rating:

I have eczema and rosacea (fun combo). I've tried numerous other prescription solutions (Elidel, MetroGel, various topical steroids) with some success but also a good number of side effects--itching, burning, redness, photosensitivity, etc. Also, prescription meds are pretty expen$ive, even on insurance. So I tried this stuff.
It took a while to work (2 weeks) and it smells odd and feels kind of tingly on the skin, but this stuff works. It also seems to be lasting a good while, which is bonus for the ole wallet.
 could be used better for other things

I purchased this because I have severe 2nd degree burns. I didn't notice it working any better than any other topical lotion, but i haven't used it for that long.
Execellent as an after wax cream

This cream works very well. If you expect your creams to have a pleasant smell, this product is not for you. I guess the cream is seaweed or marine algea based.
