Healing

Acne, Eczema and Psoriasis, dry skin, burns, and scarring are just some of the day-to-day issues that many people face. There are many factors that can contribute to skin problems, and seemingly an endless list of treatments.

Many of our skin conditions are inflammation based. For example:

Eczema is an inflammatory process with most changes mainly confined to the outer layer of the skin with some inflammatory cells in the deeper layer. Healing in eczema requires reduction of the inflammation, removal of the inflammatory cells and removal of the tissue fluid which is associated with the inflammation.

Acne can involve inflammation of the outer layer of the skin. Often, if there is extensive damage to the deeper layer of the skin as a result of a large pimple, i.e. a nodule or a cyst, then the repair process requires the production of collagen and consequently the formation of a scar.

Reducing inflammation is one key in helping to heal skin. Some treatments such as cortisone creams can actually make your skin condition worse. Choosing a natural alternative such as Emu Oil could be the solution you’re after. Emu Oil is a natural anti-inflammatory and has unique rejuvenating and healing properties. Emu Oil can be used for a range of inflammation based skin conditions as well as healing dry and damaged skin.

How does Emu Oil help?

Emu Oil effectively penetrates the skin due to its compound structure (it is very similar to normal skin structure), and is considered to be both hypoallergenic and non-comedogenic, which explains why Emu Oil has such an extremely low irritation rate and doesn’t clog pores. Laboratory testing has shown Emu Oil to have the same degree of irritability as water when applied to the skin. Furthermore, Emu Oil is also bacteriostatic, meaning that it does not promote the growth of bacteria. These factors help restore, repair and heal the skin and helps bring moisture to extremely dry and damaged skin.
