Creams & Ointments: Essential Skin and Wound Care Solutions

Creams and ointments are staples in skin and wound care, providing soothing, protective, and healing properties for various needs. From moisturizing dry skin to protecting against irritation and aiding wound healing, these versatile products are invaluable in both daily care and medical treatments.

What Are Creams & Ointments?

• Creams: These are water-based formulations that are lighter and easily absorbed into the skin, making them ideal for hydration and quick application.

• Ointments: These are oil-based formulations that form a protective barrier on the skin, perfect for locking in moisture and shielding sensitive areas.

How Do They Work?

Creams and ointments function by:

1. Moisturizing: They replenish hydration in the skin, improving elasticity and preventing dryness.

2. Protecting: Barrier creams and ointments create a layer that shields the skin from irritants, moisture, and friction.

3. Healing: Medicinal formulations, such as those with antimicrobial properties, aid in wound healing and infection prevention.

4. Soothing: Many creams and ointments reduce inflammation, relieve discomfort, and promote overall skin health.
