About AL-Soft 12% Cream

AL-Soft 12% Cream is used for brighter, more radiant skin complexation. Besides this, it is also used to treat skin problems like acne scars, melasma, hyperpigmentation, wrinkles and photoaging (premature ageing of the skin caused by repeated exposure to UV radiation). AL-Soft 12% Cream is derived from milk with an antibacterial, antioxidant,  keratolytic (removes warts and calluses), comedolytic (inhibits the formation of blemishes), and anti-inflammatory activity. 

AL-Soft 12% Cream contains Lactic acid, which works by increasing the turnover rate of epithelial cells (cells that line the surface of the skin), eventually helping in peeling the skin and moisturizing the skin. AL-Soft 12% Cream acts as an acid exfoliant that softens and dissolves the keratin. Besides this, it also helps to slow down the shedding of skin, thereby allowing the skin to function longer before flaking off.

Use AL-Soft 12% Cream as advised by your doctor. AL-Soft 12% Cream is only for external (skin only) use. Avoid contact with eyes, eyelids, lips, mouth, and nose. If the medicine comes in contact with any of these areas, rinse with water immediately. Do not use AL-Soft 12% Cream on sunburned, windburned, or irritated skin. Common side effects of AL-Soft 12% Cream include dry skin, erythema (skin redness), burning sensation, itching, skin irritation, and skin rash.

Please tell your doctor if you are allergic to AL-Soft 12% Cream. Let your physician know if you are pregnant, planning to conceive, or a breastfeeding mother. AL-Soft 12% Cream can make the skin more sensitive in the sunlight, hence always use sunscreen and protective clothing before you step outdoors.

Medicinal Benefits

AL-Soft 12% Cream protects the skin from dryness, lightens dark spots and blemishes and the skin even tone and soft. It is a moisturizing agent that forms an oily layer on the top of the skin, hence traps in the water. Thereby moisturizes the outermost layer of skin and makes it smoother and softer. Also, it breaks down a protein known as keratin (that forms part of skin structure), removes dead skin cells and softens skin. Applying directly to the skin gets easily absorbed into the skin and provides excellent moisture to dry, patchy skin areas. It acts as an anti-ageing tool by reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. It promotes collagen production, which helps firm the skin. It also plays a major role in lightening age spots. It can lighten hyperpigmentation and decrease age spots and acne scars.
