10 Points for panoxyl question?

Question

hello

i purchased panoxyl 10% gel today in the instruction paper they say that most people start with the 5% AND then the 10% what will happen if i started with the 10%

Answer 1

I started with 10% and I was fine.

Answer 2

just go light with it should be fine

Answer 3

Hello,

One of the ways Panoxyl works, is by drying up the oil in the skin.  How oily your skin is, is one reason some people need the 5% strength, and some people need the 10% strength.

If your skin is not used to Panoxyl, then when you start it you might notice *excessive* drying of the skin, so's you get dry flaking.

However, that's not serious  and can be reversed just by stopping the gel application.  I suggest you try the 10% strength very lightly to start with, or only apply it once a day or every other day at first.

I hope this is of some help.
