Baziron ac reviews

Anna

Baziron AS helped me a lot. In just a week of use, acne has decreased by 90%. This is simply fantastic. The most important thing is not to overdo it with the dosage.

Elena

After trial and error, I found the best acne treatment for myself. At first, of course, I burned my skin. But the instructions say not to stop using it. At my own risk I continued. And I was right. After a month of use, the lmzo feels like an egg. Smooth and even. Sometimes one pimple pops up in a week, but this is nothing at all.

Paul

Baziron is a great product. I used it for 3 months, all the pimples went away, but when I stopped using it they started to come out again. Therefore, you need to use it all your life :)

Ksenia

But Baziron didn’t suit me at all. Very severe allergy. The face was all red and itchy. I had to give up this product.

Zhenya

Baziron, expensive pleasure. But whoever treats acne doesn’t mind almost any money. I bought Baziron for 690 rubles. But to be honest, it's worth the money. No remedy has ever helped as much as Baziron.

Thekla

Baziron AS is a good remedy, but the main thing is to know how to use it.

• inflammation and redness of the skin disappears;
• healing of spots, scars on the skin;
• long-term protection after a course of treatment for acne and pimples.

The ability to prevent acne formation is closely related to keratolytic activity, which consists of splitting the horny scales of the surface epithelial cells. These scales, together with sebum, form an acne plug that closes the pore. Moreover, reliable gluing of such a plug occurs due to the bacterial film. Baziron AS destroys this film, destroys horny scales and bacteria, thereby eliminating pimples and preventing their appearance.

Gel and ointment Baziron AS 2.5 – 5 – 10

1. Baziron 2.5 is a gel containing the active substance at a concentration of 2.5%.
2. Baziron 5 is a gel containing the active substance at a concentration of 5%.
3. Baziron 10 is a gel that contains the active substance in a concentration of 10%.

How does Baziron work after application to the skin?

Baziron AS gel is used only externally, so it does not undergo any biotransformations in the human body, since there is no need to remove the active substance in large quantities. When applied to the skin, 95% benzoyl peroxide, through chemical transformations, is converted into benzoic acid . Benzoic acid penetrates into the deep layers of the skin, has a therapeutic effect, after which it is absorbed into the blood vessels and excreted unchanged by the kidneys along with urine. To date, no effects of drug accumulation have been detected either in the skin or in the bloodstream. Baziron AS gel acts exclusively locally (on an area of ​​the skin); it does not have any systemic effects on the entire human body.

Therapeutic effects and indications for use

Gel Baziron AS is used to treat acne, pimples and comedones on the skin. Comedones are known to many as “blackheads”, which are pores enlarged and clogged with sebum and desquamated epithelium. Treatment of acne is the main area of ​​application of the drug Baziron AS.

The ability of the gel to improve tissue nutrition and increase the delivery of oxygen to the superficial skin made it possible to use it for the treatment of trophic ulcers of the lower extremities. Such ulcers are the result of insufficient nutrition of skin areas, which develops due to poor blood supply. The reasons for poor blood supply can be different - varicose veins, diabetes mellitus and other pathologies in which the condition of the blood vessels suffers. The drug improves blood circulation, improves wound healing and normalizes tissue nutrition.

Gel Baziron AS has a fairly wide spectrum of action, which allows you to eliminate acne and pimples. It has an anti-inflammatory effect, improves oxygen delivery and respiration of skin tissues. At the same time, it significantly reduces the production of sebum by the glands. The gel adsorbs the existing excess oily secretion, which prevents clogging of pores and the formation of unsightly comedones. In addition, Baziron AS has a moisturizing effect and “resolves” existing comedones, preventing the formation of new ones. All these properties, combined with an active antimicrobial effect on staphylococci (Staphylococcus epidermidis) and bacteria that cause purulent inflammation (Propionibacterium acnes), allow the drug Baziron AS to effectively eliminate acne.

The active substance of the drug has a wide spectrum of antimicrobial activity. Benzoyl peroxide destroys a large number of microorganisms present on the skin. In this case, microorganisms are not able to develop resistance against benzoyl peroxide. The anti-inflammatory effect of Baziron AS is combined with antioxidant properties, which has a beneficial effect on the condition of the skin and prevents its aging and decline.

Moisturizing and softening the skin is provided by glycerin, which, in combination with acrylate, adsorbs excess sebum, preventing clogging of pores and the formation of comedones.

Why is Baziron effective against acne?

Baziron AS contains benzoyl peroxide, which has an effect at all stages of acne formation, suppressing the negative factors that lead to their appearance. Baziron AC is effective against acne due to the following therapeutic effects:

• destroys microorganisms located on the skin that cause inflammation;
• prevents the development of the inflammatory process;
• reduces oily skin;
• prevents the formation of comedones;
• effectively eliminates desquamated epithelium.

Reducing the fat content of the skin under the influence of Baziron is achieved due to the fact that the active substance reduces the concentration of fatty acids in fat. Thus, Baziron gel simply changes the qualitative composition of sebum without affecting the amount of secretion produced, and it is due to this that the oiliness of the skin decreases. In addition to this, the acrylic copolymer in Baziron AS perfectly absorbs excess sebum produced. This effect of the gel leads to the fact that the sebaceous gland itself decreases in size, and the growth rate of its cells also decreases significantly.

The ability to prevent the formation of comedones is closely related to keratolytic activity, which consists of the breakdown of horny scales of superficial epithelial cells. These horny scales, together with sebum, form an acne plug that closes the pore. Moreover, reliable fixation and gluing of such a plug occurs due to the film produced by bacteria. Baziron AS destroys this film, melts the horny scales, destroys bacteria, thereby eliminating comedones and preventing their formation again.

These theoretical justifications for the effects of Baziron on acne have been confirmed by practice - that is, by numerous successful cases of complete recovery from acne.

Instructions for use

The gel must be carefully applied in a thin layer to previously cleansed and dried skin that has acne. It is applied once or twice a day with soft circular movements, rubbing into the skin. You can subsequently wash off the gel with any product that you usually use. The gel should not be applied to damaged skin. Also, in the summer, you should not lubricate areas of the skin that will be exposed to direct sunlight with gel. During treatment with Baziron AS, you should not use drugs that dry out the skin - for example, alcohol-containing lotions, etc.

The effective course of treatment is 3 months, during which Baziron AS should be continuously used. A clear therapeutic effect and improvement in skin condition develops after 1 month of regular use of the gel. A three-month course of treatment is necessary to consolidate the effect achieved after 4 weeks and obtain a lasting result. In this case, for the first 3 to 4 weeks of therapy, the gel should be used at a concentration of 2.5% and 5%. After which you can continue the entire course of treatment with 5% gel, or switch to 10% if the acne is severe.

Baziron AS can be used as the only drug for the treatment of mild to moderate acne. And in the treatment of acne of moderate and severe severity, Baziron AS can be used as a local drug as part of a complex therapy consisting of taking medications orally (antibiotics, hormonal medications). In addition, Baziron AC can be used in conjunction with other topical agents, such as retinoids.

If necessary, the course of treatment with Baziron AS can be repeated.

Reviews

Most people respond positively to the drug Baziron AS, since the gel really helps get rid of acne and blackheads. However, to such an undoubtedly positive therapeutic effect, there may also be some disadvantages that force people to give a negative connotation to their review. Most often, people do not like the irritation on the skin after using Baziron AS, and the need to use the gel for a long time, which creates some discomfort. And since the problem of acne has been solved, it is natural for a person to want to get rid of other negative phenomena. It is in such cases that most negative reviews are left.

There are also other options when people leave negative reviews about Baziron gel. This is often due to lack of effect - when the gel was used to treat acne that is not ordinary acne vulgaris. In this case, Baziron is practically useless, as people were convinced of and, considering the drug ineffective, left negative reviews. To avoid such disappointments, it is necessary to consult with your doctor before starting therapy - is this medicine suitable for you?

Therefore, the more expensive drug does not differ from the cheaper one in anything except the price.

• The average cost of Baziron 5% in Russian pharmacies is 500–700 rubles per tube, and in Ukraine – 250–400 hryvnia.
• A gel with a 10% concentration of the active substance costs on average 650–800 rubles in Russia, and 370–500 hryvnia in Ukraine.
• Unfortunately, Baziron gel 2.5% is not currently supplied to Russia, so it is impossible to purchase it.

Skinoren or Baziron?

In general, most patients prefer to use Baziron, since its therapeutic effectiveness, in their opinion, is higher. However, Baziron does not help some people at all, but Skinoren, on the contrary, has an excellent therapeutic effect. We can say that about 2/3 of people suffering from acne are better helped by Baziron, and 1/3 by Skinoren. It is best to consult a dermatologist - which drug to prefer in a particular case.

Skinoren can be applied to the entire surface of the facial skin, and Baziron is used exclusively pointwise, so for large areas of damage it is better to start treatment with Skinoren, and if the first is ineffective, switch to Baziron.

Many people complain that Skinoren and Baziron whiten their skin very much. Thus, acquired pallor is not evidence of pathology or other serious illness.

Zenerite or Baziron?

Zenerit and Baziron have completely different mechanisms of action. In addition, addiction develops to Zinerit, so it should not be used for more than three months. After a course of therapy with Zinerit, you need to take a break, after which you can use the drug again. In principle, Baziron is also recommended for use for three months, but it is never addictive. Therefore, many recommend using Baziron, and not even starting to use Zenerit, since the addictive effect is quite strong. In addition, after stopping Zinerit, acne may appear in even greater numbers, however, this phenomenon is temporary, but very unpleasant.

Many people with oily skin prefer to use Zinerit, since the product perfectly solves the problem of acne, eliminates excess oil and does not dry out the skin, as often happens when using Baziron. But in principle, most people come to the conclusion that after a certain period of use, Zinerit becomes completely ineffective, which is not the case with Baziron. If Baziron is ineffective, then this can be seen immediately. And if the drug works well immediately, then it will have the same effect later.

Baziron or Differin?

Differin and Baziron do not contain antibiotics, so they are not addictive. However, they contain fundamentally different active ingredients that effectively fight acne. They are often used together, but this should not be done as the result will be too dry skin. Both Baziron and Differin at the very beginning of use can cause severe irritation, which is perceived as an increase in acne - but this is not the case. After a short period of time, the skin will get used to the action of the drugs, the redness will stop, and the acne will begin to heal.

In general, Differin is more preferable because it has the ability to remove acne spots and cleanse clogged pores well. But since Differin and Baziron have slightly different mechanisms of action, they are used in different situations. Thus, Differin is more effective than Baziron in the treatment of acne in the form of comedones with a small inflammatory component. And Baziron is more effective than Differin in the treatment of acne with an active inflammatory component - that is, with papular and pustular forms of acne. Subjectively, Baziron is much worse tolerated than Differin, so if you are intolerant of it, it is better to switch to Differin.
