Topiderm Urea 10% Cream 100g - Keratolytic Dry Skin Treatment

Topiderm Urea 10% Cream contains 10% urea - the gold standard keratolytic ingredient for very dry, hard and scaly skin. Urea works by breaking down the protein bonds in excess keratin (dead skin), softening and removing the thickened skin layer that makes very dry skin feel rough and uncomfortable.

FAQ: What does 10% urea do for dry skin?

At 10% concentration, urea provides both keratolytic (skin-softening) and humectant (moisture-attracting) benefits. It breaks down excess keratin in the skin surface, softening hard skin and improving texture, while simultaneously attracting and retaining water in the skin. Higher urea concentrations (20-40%) are more aggressively keratolytic for established calluses and hyperkeratosis.

FAQ: Can Topiderm Urea 10% be used on the face?

Urea 10% cream is generally too strong for facial use, which tends to have thinner, more sensitive skin. It is most appropriate for body use - particularly legs, arms, feet and elbows where very dry and thickened skin is common. For facial dry skin, use a gentler facial-specific moisturiser.
