Bio Oil helps reduces the appearance of all types of scars.
Bio Oil should be applied only once the wound has healed and should never be used on broken skin. Older scars will benefit from regular use of Bio-Oil whilst younger scars have a greater chance of improvement over a shorter time. Bio Oil is formulated to help reduce the appearance of scars but it will never remove them entirely.
How to use Bio Oil on scars?
Massage a few drops of Bio Oil in a circular motion into the scar and surrounding skin, twice daily, for a minimum of 3 months usage.
Bio Oil helps reduce the appearance of wrinkles.
Sagging and wrinkled skin commonly associated with aging is largely caused by the weakening of the collagen and elastin support system in the dermis. Bio-Oil contains numerous ingredients that help to plasticize the skin, making it softer, smoother and more supple, thereby reducing the appearance of wrinkled and sagging skin. Bio-Oil also moisturizes, which improves the texture, tone and appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Bio Oil should be applied twice daily to the ageing skin.
Bio Oil helps improve the appearance of stretch marks.
Stretch marks appear when the body expands faster than the covering skin, which causes the skin to tear and when the skin heals it scars, it is this scar which is known as stretch marks.
Stretch marks are permanent in nature, and although Bio Oil is formulated to help improve their appearance, it will never remove them. Bio Oil is highly effective in helping to improve the appearance of existing stretch marks as it increases the elasticity of the skin and the reduces the possibility of new stretch marks forming.
Those most prone to stretch marks include pregnant women, body builders, adolescents undergoing sudden growth spurts and individuals who experience rapid weight gain.
