Dermatotropic agents Mospharm suspension "Tsindol". Best way to use cindol for acne treatment cindol face mask

Very weak effect

Grade: 3

Tsindol disappointed. Acts slowly, almost zero result in two weeks. It was possible to achieve something not earlier than in a month. You need to use it for a really long time to remove all acne, but not all patience is enough for this. Maybe it's because I only use it once a day. Well, how else, if it dries on the face and turns into a layer similar to toothpaste and then it starts to fall apart. So you have to use it at night. I didn’t make a mask, only smeared the pimples themselves with a thick layer. One bottle was enough for the whole month, so the expenses were minimal, although this is a plus.

Pronounced drying effect

Grade: 5

I like cindol! Working, cheap drug.
Can remove even the most severe itching. It relieves inflammation and heals the skin.
Shake vigorously before use. It smells nice of chalk, it does not disappear if you forget to close the lid.
Used it even outside the expiration date, works just as well.
There is almost no consumption, the substance on a cotton pad is enough to process one area. It absorbs very quickly and dries out on the skin.
I use it for wet, inflamed acne at night, and in the morning the inflammation decreases. The product has a sedative effect.

Helpful but not fast

Grade: 4

Zindol is quite an acceptable remedy. Penetrates deep into the skin, prevents bacteria from spreading further.
There are several ways to use, I mainly use four. But it is important to understand that one week is not enough, the course approach is important here, a long one, not less than two months. Only then will improvements be seen and recovery will occur. If you treat the skin with cindol up to 6 times a day, you will notice improvement at the end of the first week.
Now more about how I use cindol.
I concluded that acne is more difficult to cure with one method, for example, rubbing, so I decided to diversify the methods, make the therapy more effective.
The first, most common, is the usual wiping. The only difference in my case is that I do not wash it off after drying, the product itself crumbles well. If you wash it off, even after a certain period, many useful components of cindol will also be washed off with water. And so it certainly penetrates the skin to the maximum.
The second way is in the form of masks. But it is suitable if there are a lot of rashes on the face at once.
The third is a compress. Spread at night, additionally covering the place of application with a bandage or cotton pad.
And the last one is as an ointment, a thick sediment of the solution itself.
Of course, in no case can you use all these methods at the same time on the same day. But changing them throughout the course, you will achieve a good result.

The most against inflammation

Grade: 4

The problem is bonanal. I get severe irritation after every shave. Suffered for so long. I applied aftershave and creams and lotions, but nothing helped.
I bought a 5 ruble cindol in a pharmacy. I tried it right away in the evening. There was no irritation in the morning. I don’t know what this is connected with, probably some special composition, but there was no trace of redness at all, the remaining pimples did not increase, as usual, they did not inflame. Each time my skin got better and better.
So there are many pluses: budget price, availability, efficiency.
There are some cons, but they are very minor. The solution does not rinse well. Maybe I apply a thick layer, maybe just a specific mass. But you have to rub it well with soap to wash everything off. And if something is not washed and remains, then after drying it begins to crumble.

Not all pimples succumb to cindol

Grade: 4

I got acquainted with this drug a long time ago, but due to circumstances it didn’t help me the first time, so I pushed it away.
I bought it to dry out acne. But I did not know that it does not help with all types of acne.
It is a two-phase liquid, at rest forms a white flocculent precipitate. Therefore, shake well before use.
I recently went through the first aid kit and came across a cindol. Decided to use it again. Fortunately, the expiration date has not expired.
I use it like this: I shake it well, with a cotton swab I collect the thickest part of the solution. I apply it, do not spread it, do not rub it on a ripe pimple. If the abscess has not yet matured and is very sore, then the cindol will not help in this case. It was this situation that made me think negatively about the properties of this drug for the first time. Tsindol will help if the pimple is small, which has already begun to pass, will contribute to its speedy drying and healing.
Sometimes I make masks from cindol, I apply the consistency in a thin layer all over my face. But I didn't dare leave it for the night. There are already a lot of components that dry - talc, alcohol, starch. Such a mass may remain on the pillow. So I wash it off before bed.

Good value for money

Grade: 4

At one time I was ready to pay a lot of money to get rid of acne, in order to acquire the most effective means. But there is still a price barrier, some drugs are not affordable. There is also another problem - not all good drugs are commercially available for free. And for this, you had to go to the clinic to see a doctor to get a prescription, defend huge queues, or spend money, except for the drug, also to visit a paid specialist. And those who suffer from acne, not in a hurry to appear once again in a crowded place. That is why I prefer home treatment, in solitude, so that no one can see me. It meets all the criteria for the price, is sold without a prescription, is suitable for self-use and saves you from unnecessary spending on expensive products and procedures in beauty salons.
I was treated by him for two months. I was on vacation, so there was enough time to follow all instructions for use.
Didn't do anything special. Maybe more often than usual applied to the face, 6 times a day. I didn't rinse it off right away, I just let it soak in. And you can understand that it has been absorbed by sprinkling it from the skin.
I recommend everyone to try it, you definitely won't lose anything. Some connect other means, but one cindol was enough for me.

Apply only in the evenings

Grade: 4

I got used to the fact that the more expensive the remedy is, the better it helps. And when I found out the cost of the cindol, I doubted its ability to help. The main component is zinc oxide, it helps to relieve inflammation, dry, heal open pustules, prevent the appearance of new acne, and soften the skin.
In addition to zinc oxide, the composition contains starch, talc, ethanol. I don’t know why, but many people call this drug “talker”. Maybe because it needs to be shaken well before use. This is done easily, the solution is in a bottle with the resulting sediment, you need to shake it until a homogeneous milky mass.
You wash your face, wipe it with a towel and then apply cindol, but not with your bare hands, but with a cotton swab. You apply daily, but I always in the evening. Because cindol forms a kind of protective film that prevents bacteria from penetrating into cleansed skin cells. I tried to use it in the morning, but you can’t wash off this protective soy, it turns out that you put makeup on it. But the foundation does not hold on to it, the skin is very shiny, and this does not add beauty.
The main plus is that it is suitable not only for single rashes, but also for abundant acne. You need to use two weeks, no less, to see the first results.

Did not impress

Grade: 3

Tsindol was ineffective. Many scold him for being too dry. I didn't even notice that effect. The salicylic ointment had a greater effect, so it really dries the skin, but it also removes inflammation. Plus it costs 2 times cheaper, although there is not much difference between 100 and 50 rubles, but the fact itself. I also did not like the white crust, which must be left until it falls off on its own. First, it's wildly inconvenient. The skin is tightened, and any movement leads to the fact that it disappears, although it should hold on. Secondly, it crumbles and, as a result, stains clothes. There are no special contaminants, it washes off easily, it can be shaken off, but it looks ugly. Tsindol also tends to dry out in the bottle. My bottle lasted a little over a month after I stopped using it - everything dried up, shaking does not help, I threw it away.
Among the positive aspects, I note the drying of acne, it is still there. The impact is more gentle than from salicylic ointment or acid. This is especially true for those who have dry and thin skin. Also, the product does not cause irritation, it is quite safe to use it. But personally, it helped me weakly, the course is too long - a month.

Means approached

Grade: 5

I personally like how cindol fights acne. My skin tends to be oily, as the sebaceous glands are overactive. Therefore, overdrying is not terrible for me. But the removal of inflammation works fine, all it took was to spread it on acne for two weeks, after that they were gone. The suspension is very cheap, a 125 ml bottle in a pharmacy cost me only 100 rubles. The bottle is dark, glass, the product itself is white, thick. Shake well before use and generally try to do it regularly, otherwise it will dry out and can be thrown away. The smell is sharp, but I won’t call it nasty - there is no comparison with the same Vishnevsky ointment, and there are those who smear her face with it.
Before applying, I washed my face, then wiped it with lotion. After that, the suspension was smeared pointwise over the pimples with a cotton swab. And then you can leave it for a long time if you don’t have to go anywhere. She will then fall off herself, the main thing is not to stain her clothes. Dries quickly, within minutes. If you need to rinse, then water is enough, but with soap the process is faster. Acne dries up and due to this they go away. There are no marks on the skin, the removal occurs without scarring, so that the beauty of the skin is preserved.

Works but can dry out skin

Grade: 4

Tsindol is also called an acne talker with zinc oxide. I bought it in a pharmacy. The agent is presented in the form of a suspension of milky color. It has a strong antiseptic effect, thus it prevents the growth of bacteria on the face. New pimples do not appear during use.
Advantages of the drug: availability, cost-effectiveness, high efficiency. It allows you to get rid of acne, blackheads, comedones. Also effective for dermatitis and eczema.
I use Zindol periodically when I have rashes on my face. In a couple of days, with its help, the face becomes clean.
On the downside, I can attribute the presence of ethanol in the composition, which dries the skin. Therefore, when using Zindol, it is necessary to moisturize and nourish the skin more intensively. If this is not done, then the skin will become dry, tight, fine wrinkles will appear.
The product may not be suitable for people with dry, sensitive skin prone to redness and flaking.
By the way, the tool can be used not only on the face. I used it to clear my back and shoulders of acne and blackheads. Just after taking a shower, she asked me to wipe my skin with a suspension. I didn't rinse or wipe it after. After about a week, my skin cleared up completely.

Many ways to use

Grade: 4

Tsindol treated acne for herself and her daughter. I have used it in different variations. And the usual suspension, which is sold in a pharmacy in bottles. It is very convenient to wipe the entire face with it, after shaking it well. And if you leave it on your face for a while, without washing it off right away, you already get a kind of mask. If you need local use, that is, the treatment of not the entire surface, but of individual zones, then you can use cindol ointment. But it is not sold in pharmacies. It can be made independently. Leave the cindol solution for several days and do not shake, a precipitate forms on the bottom - this is the ointment. The liquid must be drained, and the ointment should be taken with a cotton swab. This sediment is not always possible to apply to the pimple in an even layer. The usual baby cream helped me in this, I mixed it with the ointment and the application became problem-free.
I chose this remedy because it dries pimples faster than others, you don’t have to wait a long time for the result, in one night the difference will be quite noticeable.
In general, it is better to carry out the procedures several times a day, up to 6 times are allowed. And be sure to rinse with running water.
If problems with acne are minor, you can get rid of them in 2 days.

Not convenient to use

Grade: 3

Zindol has one significant advantage - low price. He helped me several times with allergic dermatitis, but in the fight against acne, I am not enthusiastic about him. The tool does not help at all, only dries.
With prolonged use, the skin at the sites of application became dry and even flaky, apparently due to the alcohol contained in the preparation. The suspension causes a little less irritation than the chatterbox, but still the sensation is not pleasant.
Like any similar remedy, cindol needs to be used 2-3 times a day for it to help, but at this time you need to be at home, you won’t show yourself with white spots on your face on the street. The drug is not recommended to be washed off, it is necessary to wait for complete drying, then it will crumble itself. Zindol gets very dirty, so it is almost impossible to use it on the body under clothes. I waited for the result for about a week and then the effect was temporary, it was not possible to achieve a permanent one. After stopping the use of the suspension, acne returned again. AT recent times I use it along with other acne products, the result is better.

A rare doctor is ready to consult a patient with problem skin, except perhaps cosmetologists from specialized commercial clinics. In adolescents, acne rashes disappear with age, when the hormonal system stabilizes. Adults are embarrassed and have no time to take coupons to a dermatologist, they believe in advertising and willingly buy up any funds.

Therefore, simple and effective recipes from Soviet times are undeservedly forgotten. For example, cindol is a suspension for treating skin with a variety of diseases. The medicine helps with herpes, eczema, dermatitis, acne, accelerates the healing of cuts, eliminates diaper rash.

Zinc oxide - the main element of the suspension - works in various directions:

  • Relieves inflammation.
  • Dries up wounds, ulcers and pustules.
  • Suppresses the activity of bacteria.
  • Protects from infection.
  • Softens and eliminates seals.

Getting on the skin, the active substance reacts with proteins, forming a thin film on the surface. Proteins do not have time to "make friends" with infections, which also speeds up recovery and extinguishes inflammation.

Other components are also useful for the skin:

  • Glycerin softens and moisturizes.
  • Starch treats dermatitis, including allergic origin.
  • Alcohol dries and disinfects.
  • Talc absorbs excess moisture on the surface, reduces the activity of bacteria.
  • Water acts as a carrier.

It is in this concentration - 12.5 g of zinc oxide per 0.1 l of liquid - that the maximum efficiency is achieved.

The drug is available in the form of a suspension, that is, it looks like a solution with a small precipitate. Before use, it must be shaken, which is why cindol is called a talker.

Liquid composition, and in the form of a paste it is not released. It is sold only in pharmacies in dark glass bottles of 125 ml.

Usage restrictions

The suspension alleviates the condition and heals the skin from many ailments of varying severity:

  • Diaper rash in babies.
  • Bedsores (tissue atrophy in bedridden patients).
  • Dermatitis and allergic spots, eczema.
  • Ulcers caused by the activity of bacteria and microorganisms.
  • Skin burns (solar, chemical, thermal).
  • Herpes.
  • Cuts.
  • Acne rash.

Zindol, when used properly, does no harm and only works on surfaces.

There is no prohibition for use by age or condition, except allergic reaction on the components. So you can treat both delicate baby skin and sensitive skin of pregnant women.

However, the doctor must still prescribe the drug.

An unpleasant result is a rash and irritation. In addition to allergies, the cause of deterioration is overdrying and thinning of the epidermis. The face turns red, flaky and itchy. Symptoms disappear after discontinuation of the drug.

In rare cases, damaged skin is moisturized with hypoallergenic ointments and creams prescribed by a dermatologist. This outcome is likely when:

  • redness and sensitivity are ignored;
  • the product is used longer and more often than recommended;
  • with improper use (typical for self-medication).

How to use correctly?

You can store the product at room temperature in a dark, dry place without exposure to heat or sun rays. Shake the bottle well before use - hence the name "".

In the morning and evening, cindol is applied to the affected area with a cotton swab on cleansed skin and gently rubbed.

You need to repeat the procedure until the traces disappear, but not more than a month.

Results and effectiveness

Zindol is an inexpensive and effective remedy. However, it is not so easy to acquire it:

In the latter version, there is another side to the issue - security. After all, popular cosmetics contain less active substance and it will be conditional to help, but it will also be easier to sell it. With a negative experience, you can always shrug your shoulders: you did not read the instructions carefully!

Do not attach long inserts with small print to the cindol. He is appointed by a specialist, which means that he paints how the treatment should take place. Ideally, the doctor will also check the result.

"Ideally" is opposed to reality, where there is no time to seek help from an impartial, experienced and honest doctor. But he still needs to be found! So you have to pester the attending physician: “Can I? How is it possible?

And here there are three nuances.

  • First, don't overdo it! That is, it is better to underexpose the product, apply for a short time and make masks once a week, than burn the skin in three days.
  • The second is personality and type. Tsindol is good for oily skin, like in teenagers - thick with active production of sebaceous secretion. Something similar happens to some ladies on certain days. menstrual cycle. Again - treatment with courses so that the face has time to recover, and you understand whether it was useful.

Dry or sensitive skin can be treated with a talker with daily procedures only with the permission of a doctor.

  • Third, part of the treatment will be in lifestyle and nutrition. If your body is sensitive to any instability (stress, fatty foods, lack of sleep), then it is very difficult to recover from acne without changing your regimen. It takes more time and effort, not to mention spending on cosmetics and restorative procedures.

By the way, zinc oxide is used by many pharmaceutical and cosmetic companies in skin-soothing series (tithes, diaderms, zinc liniment, and others). Therefore, its effectiveness is undeniable. But pharmacists will not offer it in a simple and inexpensive version, because they are afraid to miss out on the benefits.

If rashes spoil your mood, then the use of cindol according to the options described can really correct the situation.

Remember that everything is good in moderation! Especially drugs!

medicinal product Tsindol is a means of zinc oxide, which has an anti-inflammatory and drying effect when applied externally on the skin. Cindol is used to treat various rashes with an inflammatory component. Zinc oxide has the ability to soothe irritated skin. Therefore, the drug is used quite widely - for eczema, dermatitis, diaper rash, bedsores, cuts, scratches, herpes, etc.

Forms of release and composition

Today, Tsindol is produced in the form of a suspension, which is often colloquially referred to as a talker. Thus, the talker and the suspension of Tsindol are the same form of the drug, just called differently. The term "Cindol ointment" is sometimes used, but the composition is not available in such a dosage form. In this case, there is confusion with ointments with zinc oxide (for example, Desitin, etc.).

If desired, an ointment can be obtained from the Zindol suspension at home. To do this, the bottle with the product is left for some time on the shelf so that a thick sediment forms at the bottom. Then the supernatant liquid is drained from the vial, leaving only the precipitate. It is this precipitate that can be used as an ointment, which will be much thicker than a suspension. You can mix the sediment with baby cream in a 1: 1 ratio - you get a zinc ointment that is easier to apply to the skin. However, pharmacists and doctors do not recommend resorting to such measures. If there is a need to get an ointment, then it is better to buy a ready-made dosage form at a pharmacy (for example, Zinc ointment, Desitin and others).

Suspension Zindol contains zinc oxide as an active ingredient, in the amount of 12.5 g per 100 ml. As auxiliary components, the Zindol suspension contains medical talc, starch, 70% ethyl alcohol, glycerin and distilled water. The drug is sold in 125 ml glass bottles made of dark glass.

Therapeutic effects and action of Zindol

The therapeutic effects of the Zindol suspension are due to zinc oxide, which has the following properties when applied to the skin:
  • anti-inflammatory action;
  • drying action;
  • adsorbing action;
  • astringent action;
  • antiseptic action.
These properties of zinc oxide in the composition of the Zindol suspension make it possible to attribute it to the group of dermatotropic agents. This means that the drug has a high affinity for skin tissues, including the dermis, and has a positive effect on them, reducing the intensity and severity of ongoing pathological processes.

When applied to the skin, the Zindol suspension forms salts of the albumin protein - albuminates, and denatures other proteins. This is very important for relieving inflammation, drying the skin, absorbing harmful substances, as well as astringent and drying effect, since most of the biological molecules involved in inflammation and irritation of the skin are protein structures. Due to the ability to denature proteins, Zindol suspension reduces wetting and fluid release, reduces the severity of inflammation and irritation. A layer of denatured proteins formed under the action of the suspension forms a protective layer on the skin surface, a kind of barrier that protects the wound surface from infection and creates a microenvironment that is optimal for healing processes. It is a protective barrier made of denatured proteins that prevents irritating substances and factors from affecting the skin. environment. That is why the Zindol suspension can be used as a drug with a protective effect.

Also an important factor in the therapeutic effects of Cindol suspension is the softening of irritated skin. The use of a suspension for eczema, diaper dermatitis and bedsores helps protect the skin from the negative effects of urine, sweat, exudate and other negative factors. The astringent action of Zindol is very important for creating a protective effect in the treatment of eczema and flaking on the skin.

After application, you can leave the composition for several hours, until it completely dries and exfoliates. After that, you can wash off the remnants of the emulsion from the skin. If there are many rashes, the dermatitis is severe, the inflammation is severe, there are pustular rashes, indicating the accession bacterial infection- Treatment of the skin should be carried out several times a day. As the condition improves, the number of treatments can be reduced to one or two throughout the day. If it is possible to leave the composition on the skin all night, do it and wash it off in the morning.

If a person cannot apply the composition several times a day (for example, at work it is impossible to walk “decorated” with white stains from Tsindol), then this can be done at lunchtime, leaving the suspension on the skin for an hour, and then rinse with water.

With the development of an allergic reaction to the drug, you should stop using it, and in the future stop using external products containing zinc oxide.

  • does Tsindol help with acne - reviews of a practicing dermatologist,
  • Acne talker - reviews and composition.

Zindol belongs to the class of dermatoprotective drugs. Its main active ingredient is zinc oxide, which, when applied to the skin, has a drying and moderate antiseptic effect. This article is written by a professional dermatologist and focuses on how effective cindol is for acne.

Often Tsindol is called a talker. This is due to the fact that the drug is a suspension: the main component of the drug (zinc oxide) is an insoluble compound, which is why it is in the liquid in the form of a suspension. This suspension must be shaken before use.

Tsindol: composition and form of release
cindol is a suspension for external use in vials of 100 or 125 grams. The price of the drug will be about 70-80 rubles. 100 grams of the drug contains -
→ zinc oxide - 12.5 gr
→ glycerin - 20 gr
→ 70% ethyl alcohol - 20 gr
→ starch - 12.5 gr
→ medical talc - 12.5 gr
→ distilled water - up to 100 grams.

Instructions for use of the drug Tsindol says that the drug should be used in the presence of weeping wounds, diaper rash, burns, bedsores, i.e. when the focus of inflammation has a wet surface. So why should acne talker never be used for acne?

Acne talker - dermatologist reviews

In fact, zinc is very often included in the composition various means for the treatment of acne (pimples). This is due to the fact that this element is able to influence almost everything. The main reasons are:
→ increased secretion of the sebaceous glands,
→ violation of the process of epithelialization of the inner wall of the hair follicles,
→ accession of pathogenic bacteria.

The first two points lead to clogging of the skin pores with a fatty substrate and desquamated epithelial cells of the hair follicles. Such fatty plugs in the pores of the skin are called - (Fig. 5-6). In the future, bacteria begin to multiply in a confined space under the plugs, which leads to the development of inflammation inside the hair follicle and the formation of pus. This is how acne is formed (Fig. 7).

Zinc has the following effects –
→ reduces the amount of secret allocated sebaceous glands,
→ reduces the number of desquamated epithelial cells inside the hair follicles,
→ increases the effectiveness of antibiotic therapy.

Important: but only active zinc ions have all these effects, and not the “zinc oxide” compound (site). For such ions to appear, the zinc compound (eg, zinc oxide) must be soluble in some organic or inorganic solvent, such as alcohol or water. Only in this case, the compound can dissociate into active ions.

Tsindol from acne reviews: zinc oxide is absolutely insoluble in any solvent compound! This is why zinc oxide simply cannot be effective for treating acne. The use of the drug will simply allow you to slightly dry the area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe skin along with the pimple, but in no way can it cure acne and affect their occurrence.

In addition, the use of the drug can significantly worsen the skin condition in patients with dry skin. This is due to the fact that the alcohol and zinc oxide that are part of the drug will dry out your skin even more. And even the glycerin, which is part of the drug, will not allow this to be corrected.

Effective zinc preparations for acne -

Effective zinc compounds that are able to dissociate into active ions and thus have a therapeutic effect on acne are:

→ zinc hyaluronate (curiosin gel),
→ zinc acetate (drug),
→ zinc sulfate (drug Zincteral).

However, it is worth remembering that zinc by itself should in no case be used as the main remedy for the treatment of acne. Benzoyl peroxide preparations are the gold standard for acne treatment, as well as antibiotics in the later stages of treatment.

Tsindol - analogues

Everything that we have written about the drug Tsindol (talker) will also apply to other skin preparations containing zinc in the form of "zinc oxide":

→ creams Diaderm and Desitin.

The active substance of the drug - zinc oxide - elevates acne cindol to the rank of the most effective drugs for drying acne. In addition, this remedy reduces swelling and redness at the site of skin injury. Zindol is widely used to get rid of rashes on the face and body that occur due to various reasons, but does not eliminate the factors within the body that led to acne. This is not a panacea, but just an inexpensive anti-inflammatory drug that acts locally.

What is cindol?

Many people know that vitamin A or retinol and zinc are very important for acne treatment. This is not about the widespread metal, with sheets of which even roofs are covered. The body needs zinc in a biologically digestible form - in the form of an ion in the composition of harmless organic substances.

It should not be thought that the external use of ointments or other dosage forms with zinc oxide provides the skin with a trace element. If such a remark is found in reviews of acne cindol, then it should be treated with humor. The action of such drugs is based on the fact that zinc oxide does not dissolve and protects the skin from caustic biological fluids.

Under the protective film of cindol, damaged skin tissues heal faster. At the same time, insoluble zinc oxide does not penetrate into the dermis and bloodstream.

"Tsindol" is used to treat eczema, dermatitis, eczema, herpes rashes. It is used for diaper rash, bedsores, abrasions and cuts, for example, during shaving. Often the remedy is called a "talker", but according to the instructions for use for acne and reviews, cindol is a suspension. Shake the medicine bottle before use.

Each 100 ml suspension contains:

  • 12.5 g of the active substance - zinc oxide.

Auxiliary ingredients:

  • ethyl alcohol 70%;
  • distilled water;
  • talc medical;
  • glycerol;
  • starch.

Zinc oxide is also an active component of ointments -, salicylic-zinc, "Desitin". The settled suspension "Tsindol" can be used to obtain homemade ointment from acne. It is necessary to drain the liquid and mix a thick white precipitate with a good baby cream (1: 1). The resulting ointment does not contain petroleum jelly, which is very important for the care of problem skin.

The savings are quite significant: 100 rubles for baby cream + 100 rubles for the cindol itself = 200 rubles (on average). Branded cosmetics for problem skin of the same effectiveness would cost 400-1200 rubles.

Therapeutic properties of cindol

Zinc oxide applied to damaged skin causes anti-inflammatory, astringent and antiseptic effects. Therapeutic effect the drug depends on the properties of zinc oxide and, in part, on auxiliary components, especially ethyl alcohol. Cindol significantly reduces the intensity of pathological phenomena in the skin, exhibits a protective and softening effect. According to these properties, the drug cindol is classified as a dermatotropic agent.

When using cindol, the wound surface dries up, swelling and redness decrease, and the activity of pathogenic microflora decreases.

Protective role

A significant role in irritation and inflammation in acne, dermatitis and other skin lesions belongs to protein substances. With the external use of cindol, denaturation of albumin proteins occurs and albuminates are formed, creating a protective barrier on damaged skin.
The amount of fluid released decreases, weeping dries up - these factors play a leading role in the inflammatory process. In addition, the suspension protects the treated area of ​​the face or body from the harmful effects of the environment. Under the cindol layer, a microenvironment is formed that is most suitable for the correct and rapid healing of acne.

Softening effect

Irritation of the epithelium occurs under the action of sweat and other negative factors. The use of a suspension allows you to soften the skin, protect it from excessive peeling and dryness.

Usually therapy lasts no more than a week, but it can take up to a month.
