Blephademodex is a sterile wipe, impregnated with a lotion. The lotion contains: PEG-8, polysorbate 80, poloxamer 184, Terpinen-4-ol, PEG-6 caprylic/capric glycerides (Macrogol 6 glycerol caprylocaprate), sodium hyaluronate, dipotassium phosphate, potassium dihydrogen phosphate, purified water.
Blephademodex is free from aggressive dtergents and free from preservatives. Blephademodex has a fresh scent due to the natural ingredients; this dissipates a few minutes after application.
The colour of the wipe may vary. This is due to the natural plant extracts (Terpinen-4-ol, a prudied extract from tea tree oil) and is normal.
Blephademodex is recommended:
- For daily hygiene of the eyelids when there is Demodex blepharitis,
- To relieve the symptoms of an eyelid infection or inflammation (blepharitis) caused by Demodex.
Demodex is the most common microscopic skin parasite but when there is an overload, irritating symptoms such as itching, burning sore eyelids, redness on the lid margin and foreign body sensation can occur. The presence of eyelash dandruff, which remain at the base of the lashes, is strongly indicative of a Demodex infection. Demodex mites are not removed by usual daily cleansing products and a dedicated treatment is required.
Blephademodex cleans away crusts, eyelash dandruff, impurities and infectious agents on the eyelids and eyelashes. Blephademodex improves symptoms linked to Demodex infection, such as itching, burning, dryness and lid margin inflammation. Eyelid redness and foreign body sensations are reduced.
The wipe contains sodium hyaluronate, a natural moisturising agent, which soothes and regenerates sensitive skin.
