FAQs
How should I apply OXY 5?
Wash and dry the affected area. Shake the bottle well, and apply a thin layer of OXY 5 to the pimples or acne-prone areas.
How often should I use OXY 5?
Start with once daily. If tolerated, increase to twice daily or as directed by a doctor.
Can I use OXY 5 on my entire face?
You can, but it is recommended to apply it specifically to the affected areas to minimize the risk of irritation.
What should I do if my skin becomes dry or irritated?
Reduce the frequency of application and use a gentle, non-comedogenic moisturizer.
Does OXY 5 work on all types of acne?
OXY 5 is most effective for inflammatory acne (pimples and pustules). It may not be as effective for non-inflammatory acne (blackheads and whiteheads).
Can I use OXY 5 with other acne treatments?
Consult with a dermatologist or healthcare professional before combining OXY 5 with other acne treatments, as it may increase the risk of side effects.
What if OXY 5 doesn't work for me?
If you don't see improvement after several weeks, consult a dermatologist for alternative treatments.
Does OXY 5 leave any residue?
No, OXY 5 is a colorless, greaseless, and odorless lotion that vanishes upon application.
