Protexin Veterinary Dermalease Skin Barrier Mousse Dogs and Cats

Protexin Veterinary DermalEase is a leave-on skin barrier mousse for dogs and cats, stocked at PeekAPaw in a 250ml can. It is a topical rather than a supplement: you dispense the mousse into your hand and work it into the skin through the coat, and it stays on rather than being rinsed off. The formula works on two layers at once, with Biosfeen, a sphingolipid extract of the kind naturally present in the waterproof outer epidermis, and Dermial, a hyaluronic-acid-based extract for the dermis below it. Protexin describes both as support for a healthy skin barrier and normal skin hydration levels. Worth knowing before you buy: the recommended pattern is twice a week for a minimum of four weeks before dropping back to weekly, so a can is bought as a routine rather than a one-off, and the area should be clean and dry with no bathing for at least 48 hours afterwards.

Protexin Veterinary DermalEase Mousse for Dogs and Cats supports healthy, nourished and hydrated skin so they can enjoy a happy, healthy life. It nourishes two layers of the skin by:

• Supporting a healthy skin barrier.
• Supporting normal skin hydration levels.
• Easy application for simpler skin care.

Just apply Protexin Veterinary DermalEase Mousse for Dogs and Cats directly to your pet's skin, parting the fur if necessary. Gently spread over the affected area until fully dispersed. Apply twice a week, for a minimum of four weeks, then drop down to a weekly application.

Protecting the outer layer of the skin (epidermis)

Protexin Veterinary DermalEase Mousse for Dogs and Cats contains Biosfeen, a type of lipid (fatty acid) extract that is naturally present in the waterproof part of the epidermis, or outer skin layer. Supplementing this can help support a healthy skin barrier and keep skin hydration levels topped up.

Supporting the middle layer of the skin (dermis)

Protexin Veterinary DermalEase Mousse for Dogs and Cats also contains Dermial, a hyaluronic-acid-based extract which supports the middle layer of the skin (dermis), helping your pet's skin maintain normal structure, elasticity and hydration levels.

Instructions for use

For external use only. Do not rinse off once applied.

Shake well before use. Hold the can upright and dispense into your hand and apply the mousse directly to your dog or cat's skin, parting the fur if necessary. Gently spread the mousse over the application area until fully dispersed. The amount used will vary depending on your pet's size and the size of the area requiring support. Avoid contact with the eyes, mucous membranes, mouth and other sensitive areas.

• Apply to clean, dry areas and leave a minimum of 48 hours until bathing. Once applied, prevent the animal from licking the area until dry.
