The latest scientific data confirm that protecting the skin barrier ecosystem is a critical element in the management of skin issues. In pets as in humans, it is particularly important in sensitive, itchy and irritated skin problems.
What is DOUXO® Calm?
Just like people your pet can show allergic symptoms to everyday substances.
DOUXO® Calm replenishes the barrier that helps to protect your pet from allergens and improves skin hydration.
The skin becomes more supple which reduces the itching.
DOUXO® Calm is clinically proven to help decrease itch and irritation in sensitive skins.
DOUXO® Calm contains Phytosphingosine
DOUXO® Calm, as the entire DOUXO® range, contains the patented molecule Phytosphingosine. It is a fundamental component of ceramides, complex lipids, found naturally in the skin which helps the cohesion of the skin barrier.
Phytosphingosine is a key player in skin functions and helps protect the skin barrier ecosystem by:
- Supporting the cohesion of the mechanical skin barrier
- Soothing and hydrating
- Helping balance microflora
Pseudofilaggrin for an enhanced activity on the skin barrier
Skin of atopic dogs presents a filaggrin defect.
Filaggrin is a protein that permits skin cells to mature and become the strong corneocytes that protect the body from outside. Filaggrin also has a direct role in moisturization: it degrades producing NMF (Natural Moisturizing Factor) which is essential to skin hydration. We can compare filaggrin to a sponge that helps retain the water in the skin.
DOUXO® Calm Shampoo and Mousse contain Pseudofilaggrin that boosts the profilaggrin synthesis and that ensures impermeability of skin barrier.
