Improving the Appearance of Scars |
| |
Bio-Oil helps improve the appearance of all scar types. It is also highly effective in helping to maintain the elasticity of scar tissue on joints and other high-mobility areas. |

Applications |
| |
Bio-Oil should be massaged in a circular motion into the scar and surrounding skin, twice daily, for a minimum of 3 months. Younger scars have a greater chance of improvement within a shorter time period, however, older scars will also benefit from the regular use of Bio-Oil. On new scars, Bio-Oil should be applied only once the wound has healed, and should never be used on broken skin. |

What is a scar and how is it formed? |
| |
Scars are an integral part of the healing process and result from an imbalance in the production of collagen at the wound site. Scars go through numerous changes as they mature, but they are permanent in nature. Bio-Oil is specifically formulated to help improve the appearance of scars, but will never remove them entirely. |

Improving the Appearance of Uneven Skin Tone |
| |
Bio-Oil helps to improve the appearance of uneven skin tone caused by hormonal fluctuations, skin-lighteners or excessive sun exposure. Visible as dark patches on the face or body, uneven skin tone often becomes most apparent during pregnancy, menopause or after exposure to high volumes of UV light. |

|
| |
Improving the Appearance of Stretch Marks |
| |
Bio-Oil is highly effective in helping to improve the appearance of existing stretch marks. Bio-Oil helps to increase the elasticity of the skin, thereby the possibility of new stretch marks forming is reduced. |

|
| |
Anti Aging Skin Care |
| |
Sagging and wrinkled skin commonly associated with aging is largely caused by the weakening of the collagen and elastin support system in the dermis. Bio-Oil contains numerous ingredients that help to plasticize the skin, making it softer, smoother and more supple, thereby reducing the appearance of wrinkled and sagging skin. Bio-Oil also moisturizes, which improves the texture, tone and appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, making Bio Oil a fantastic and easy to use Anti Aging Skin care product. |

Dehydrated skin |
| |
Bio-Oil helps replenish the skin’s natural oils that have been stripped away by factors such as: |
| |
- Frequent bathing/cleansing with harsh soaps |
| |
- Excessive perspiration |
| |
- Atmospheric conditions including exposure to the sun and wind |
| |
- Central heating and air conditioning |
| |
- Poor diet and/or insufficient water intake |
