Customer Review: Does what it says; nothing more, nothing less
Summary: 4 Stars
There are so many acne products out there that one would think it is the only skin problem that exists, and therefore, it is often challenging to find remedies for other conditions. Case in point: I have everything EXCEPT acne - eczema, psoriasis, redness, flaky/oily skin, and the worst of the bunch, seborrheic dermatitis on my face. My dermatitis is both painful and embarassing. It feels like I have a constant sunburn and I am constantly slathering on hydrocortisone to cover the dandruff-like flaky patches on my eyebrows, nose, forehead and chin.
After much research and fruitless trips to dermatologists who offered no solution to my chronic problems, I came across ads in various magazines for the DERMAdoctor line and checked out the website. Though not thrilled with the $24 price tag, I decided to give Born to Be Mild a try. After just a few days of using it, the tightness, oiliness and redness on my face all but disappeared and the flakiness has reduced by about 90%. Now I just use it once or twice a week to keep the flakiness under control.
The cons? The cost (as mentioned above), the smell (smells like an unpleasant mix of swimming pool water and old pennies) and the fact that it doesn't go beyond basic utility. It serves its purposes [to reduce the dermatitis symptoms] but it stops there. It doesn't leave my skin any softer, more supple or healthier-looking than if I had washed it with plain water. I highly recommend following up with a mild exfoliant to get rid of any residual flakes/skin and finishing with a good quality oil-free moisturizer (I just use a light coat of pure aloe vera with vitamin E).
Overall, I would definitely buy this product again.
Description of DERMAdoctor Born To Be Mild Medicated Face & Body
Dandruff on my face? That's a question many patients ask when told that those annoying signs of redness, flaking, dryness, sensitivity and/or inflammation involving: the eyebrows : beard or moustache area : around the mouth : nasolabial folds (crease extending from the nose to the angles of the mouth) : the nasal ala (crease under the flare of the nose under the nostrils) are in fact symptoms of Seborrheic Dermatitis, more commonly referred to as Seborrhea or Dandruff. Dermatologist's Secret: 2% pyrithione zinc containing dandruff shampoos are frequently recommended by dermatologists for use on the face and body to complement prescription dandruff therapy. The Reason: Pyrithione zinc has been medically proven to kill yeast that live upon the skin and drive this (and other) dermatologic conditions. Kill the yeast, clear the dandruff. Continued use creates an environment hostile to their regrowth and keeps skin looking clear and healthy. The Problem: Patients with this condition are often already dry, sensitive and irritated and unable to tolerate the dryness and irritation these dandruff shampoos (or prescription antibiotic cleansers) can cause. Ultimately they turn to non-therapeutic, non-medicated options like Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser. The Solution: Enter DERMAdoctor Born To Be Mild. The first cleanser of its kind to effectively tr. . .Cleansers
