Efficacy
The Flexitol® Lip Balm formula:
- Is clinically proven to be effective for treating and relieving isotretinoin-induced cheilitis.
- Is an efficient formula, consisting almost entirely of either barrier ingredients (60%) or emollient ingredients (30%).
- Contains the keratolytic agent urea at 2.5% to help soften skin and replenish moisture levels.
- Cortisone-free, so that it won’t contribute to atrophy of the already thin skin of the lips.
