About Glyco 6 Cream
Glyco 6 Cream is used to treat skin problems like acne (pimples), acne scars, melasma, hyperpigmentation, wrinkles, and photoaging (premature ageing of the skin caused by repeated exposure to UV radiation). Glyco 6 Cream has antibacterial, antioxidant, keratolytic (removes warts and calluses), comedolytic (inhibits the formation of blemishes), and anti-inflammatory activity.
Glyco 6 Cream contains ‘Glycolic acid’, which works by increasing the turnover rate of epithelial cells (cells that line the surface of the skin), eventually helping in peeling the skin and treating comedones (skin-coloured, small bumps due to acne). Glyco 6 Cream kills bacteria, reduces inflammation, and unplugs blocked pores. It decomposes to release oxygen when applied to the skin. This oxygen acts as a bactericidal agent and kills Propionibacterium acnes, the bacteria that causes acne.
Glyco 6 Cream is for external use only. Avoid contact with eyes, eyelids, lips, mouth, and nose. If the medicine comes in contact with any of these areas, rinse with water immediately. Do not use Glyco 6 Cream on sunburned, windburned, dry, or irritated skin. Common side effects of Glyco 6 Cream include dry skin, erythema (skin redness), burning sensation, itching, skin irritation, and skin rash.
Glyco 6 Cream can make the skin more sensitive in the sunlight, hence always use sunscreen and protective clothing before you step outdoors. Care should be taken while applying Glyco 6 Cream on sensitive areas, such as the neck. Please limit the use of products that contain large amounts of alcohol (astringents, shaving creams, or after-shave lotions), hair removal products, and products containing lime or spices while using Glyco 6 Cream.
