ACTIVE INGREDIENTS:

  • Zinc Pyrithione: 2%

ANTI-FUNGAL:

  • Zinc Pyrithione: 2%

FULL INGREDIENT LIST:

Aqua, Polyethylene Glycol, Coco-Glucoside, Cocoamidopropyl Betaine, Sodium Lauroyl Sarcosinate, Zinc Pyrithione, Phenoxyethanol & Ethyl hexyl Glycerin, Acrylates Copolymer, Triethanolamine, Coco-Glucoside & Glyceryl Oleate

FACIAL AND BODY APPLICATION:

  • Apply Medi-Zinc to the affected areas in the morning and/or evening unless otherwise suggested by your treating doctor or clinical advisor.
  • Slightly wet your fingers. If you apply Medi-Zinc to your face, ensure to not wet your face before applying, this will cause the product to run into your eyes and sting.
  • Keep the product in contact with your skin for at least 5 min. This will allow the product to penetrate the follicles optimally. Tip: Keep the cleanser on your skin while you brush your teeth/bath or get dressed.
  • Remove the cleanser with a clean, lukewarm face cloth or the microfibre face sponge. This will also help to remove excess makeup and loose peeling skin.

Continue treatment once / twice daily until clearance of symptoms and then for at least one week after.

Because yeast, fungi, and bacteria do not develop resistance toward Zinc Pyrithione, you can continue to use Medi-Zinc cleanser regularly even after symptoms have cleared.

Consistent application of Zinc Pyrithione will result in continuous antimicrobial activity.

IMPORTANT TIPS

  • Make sure that the product has good contact with the skin. Lather the areas you would like to treat and keep the product on the skin for at least 5 min, but most preferably 10 min for best results. This will allow the product to penetrate the follicles to reach the Malassezia optimally.
  • Repeat the application nightly for at least 3-4 weeks. Within this timeframe, you will start to experience positive results as the Zinc Pyrithione controls the Malassezia overgrowth.
  • To keep the Malassezia yeast from returning, ensure you have enough Zinc Pyrithione hanging out in the skin around the problem areas. Do not stop your treatment after all the signs and symptoms have cleared up. Problem areas should be in contact with Zinc Pyrithione at least once per week.
  • The FDA has approved Zinc Pyrithione as very safe and effective. There is no harm in continuing to use the Zinc Pyrithione daily. Bacteria and the yeast on your skin will not become resistant to it, so there's no reason to stop using it.
  • Always remember the 5-10 min skin contact rule.

BENEFITS OF MEDI-ZINC CLEANSER

Down-regulate the inflammatory response and prevent bacterial infiltration.

Reduce redness and acne breakouts

INDICATIONS FOR MEDI-ZINC CLEANSER

  • Acne, body acne and conditions related to yeast / fungal infections
  • Rosacea
  • Seborrheic Dermatitis and Atopic Dermatitis
  • Keratosis pilaris
  • Shaving bumps / Folliculitis
  • Inflammation
  • Psoriasis
  • Ringworm, Tinea versicolor, Vitiligo

ZINC PYRITHIONE MODE OF ACTION

Zinc Pyrithione has broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity:
Not only does it inhibit and reduce the burden of Malassezia on the skin, but it also targets gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, as well as other fungi that cause ringworm, athlete's foot, and jock itch.

Zinc Pyrithione disrupts iron distribution across the yeast wall and effectively starves the yeast of some of the critical processes important in its respiratory function.

Zinc Pyrithione penetrates the hair follicle where Malassezia resides and has a unique slow-release ability. It persists in the top layer of skin even after rinsing off the product. Therefore, it imparts long-lasting control and sustained release of anti-yeast coverage and suppression of the Malassezia yeast overgrowth.

The yeast, fungi, and bacteria do not develop resistance towards Zinc Pyrithione. Consistent application of Zinc Pyrithione will, therefore, result in continuous antimicrobial activity.

Don't use Medi-Zinc Cleanser if you have a known allergy to any of its ingredients.

Normal reactions may include stinging or burning, skin peeling, or skin irritation.

Follow the below guidelines to manage the initial irritation reaction:

  • Use only in the evening. Rinse your face with clean water in the morning. If you have loose peeling skin, wipe your face with a lukewarm face cloth in the morning that will help to remove this loose dead skin.
  • Apply cleanser on wet face. This will help to decrease the potency. Do not apply over your eyes.
  • Keep the cleanser on for shorter periods. Gradually increase the timeframe, as your skin becomes more tolerant.

Retinol serum

Gold for the skin

Since using Retinol serum on my face, it feels firmer and blemish free! I have been using it for almost 2 years now and can clearly see a difference. We've immigrated to NZ within those two years and I still order and get it delivered religiously! I will never again use anything else.
