In case of acne on the scalp, use HYPOGEN HAIR CARE exclusively:

  2. HYPOGEN CARE Cleansing Shampoo should be used on normal or oily hair that is not severely damaged and especially on oily scalps.

The right choice of shampoo already provides the perfect care for hair and scalp.

After cleansing, apply HYPOGEN CARE Wound Care Fluid generously to the acne areas. Acutely inflamed or even open areas should be treated immediately afterwards with HYPOGEN CARE Wound Care Lotion. Wound Care Fluid and Wound Care Lotion should be applied thinly with the fingertips to the affected areas of the scalp. Proceed gently. Do not wash or wipe off, but allow to absorb or dry. Preferably, Wound Care Fluid and Wound Care Lotion can be used overnight. Wound Care Fluid and Wound Care Lotion have microbe-inhibiting properties and are particularly effective against inflammation. The chitosan biopolymer complex of the sublevactum formula used in both is also used in wound healing.

After the acne has subsided, continue to use the HYPOGEN CARE Shampoo suitable for your hair and scalp type to prevent acute acne from flaring up again.

In case of acute acne on the scalp, a doctor should always be consulted.
