For Dry Skin "I got a tattoo on my lower leg. An area of it that was directly over my shin bone became an open wound after the skin peeled off. My derm gave me samples of Biafine and told me to apply it twice daily. I am amazed at the healing after only 3 days of application! The cream soothes the pain and promotes healing rapidly! I think whoever invented it should receive an award, as I have never had such a rapid and significant response to a medication. I highly recommend it...ask your derm about it. (P.S. - I am an RN with 35 years of experience.)"

For Dry Skin "I was dismissed after 35 radiation treatments on my left lower leg with a huge gaping wound. (Severe radiation burn. About nine inches long, four inches wide, and probably a half inch deep on top of the left lower leg.) The radiation doctor told me to put Aquaphor on the enormous wound. What a joke. Aquaphor did absolutely nothing to help the wound. (My leg had been treated after surgery to remove a sarcoma.) Went straight home to my computer and looked up 'heal radiation burns' on Amazon. Found Biafine immediately. It completely healed that big wound in one week. AMAZING."

For Dry Skin "Biafine was awesome at treating my dry skin areas of my elbows, knees, and feet. I live in an area where it is cold most of the time, and my skin gets super dry in the winter. Biafine treated the dryness and helped my skin heal up good."

For Dry Skin "I had two facial skin biopsies performed by a dermatologist who gave me several packets of Polysporin to aid in wound healing. I had a horrible reaction to this salve (itching, redness, draining). I went back to this doctor who looked at the wounds and told me I had an allergic reaction, discontinued it, and substituted it with Vaseline. After several days of using Vaseline, this also didn't help at all. I went to another dermatologist who examined my wounds and gave me two sample tubes of Biafine. Within two days, I was so much better. Redness, itching, and wound weeping were down considerably. I firmly believe that if I had Biafine right away, I would not have suffered as I did."

"I am an RN and used Biafine on a number of conditions. 1st and 2nd degree burns are my favorite because it decreases the pain tenfold. I have seen Biafine heal pressure sores that previously nothing helped, and I have personally put it on things like cuts that should have taken weeks to heal, and they would be completely healed in a matter of days."

For Dry Skin "Burnt my arm with the car engine. The pharmacist gave me Biafine as the wound wouldn’t heal. I was impressed at how quickly the wound started to heal (it was looking ugly). I’m still using it, as this was just around 1 week ago. I will always keep one handy at home!"

For Dry Skin "I first learned about Biafine years ago from the Adrian Leeds blog about France. She recommended it for dry skin. I have even bought it in French pharmacies when in Paris. It is much cheaper there than in the US, of course. Luckily, I can buy it online, and it is perfect for the dry skin of my face. I don't understand the warnings about it. But it is great, and I think the stuff from cosmetic companies that is overpriced is a joke. Remember, Lauder called their cream 'hope in a jar.' This really works."

"I scalded my hand with boiling water, resulting in a wound with a second-degree burn, skin peeling off, and a lot of pain and discomfort. The treatment offered to me in the A&E was insufficient (the dressing kept sticking to the wound and was impossible to remove). After a week of agony, I was suggested to buy this cream, which was a miracle. The dressing didn't stick, and the healing was rapid. I am now two months after the accident and am still applying the cream to minimize scarring."

"I have been diagnosed with nodular prurigo in 2020 and with the condition for 4 years prior. Since 2020, I have been on 3 different types of medication and prior to that, countless amounts of antibiotics (over 20), steroids, and steroid creams and solutions. In June 2021, I was recommended through a friend Biafine. Although skeptical, after all I’ve used so many medicines, expensive or cheap, without any luck, I gave this product a go. How happy and lucky I felt that I did! Within a week, the really bad outbreak I had on my face, lingering for 6 months, was almost healed. Another week and it was gone. Since then, I apply once a day and no signs of outbreaks anywhere on my body. Phenomenal is the word. I have my life back, no longer hiding indoors or getting looks and comments for my badly inflamed and scarred skin. Highly recommend."

For Dry Skin "I used it during radiation therapy. It was wonderful. Prevented burns, was not greasy, and absorbed so quickly into the skin I could dress right after application without ruining clothes."
