Skin Conditions

Skin Conditions:

Once again, it is best if you can see a qualified Chinese Medicine practitioner who is familiar with Chinese dermatology. If not we offer the following suggestions. You can get started with these but of course a custom formula especially with a consultation is best. Skin conditions change over time and its best to change the formula along with it.

If you would like to have a consultation, then photograps, close up and many of them is best.

Skin conditions can change overnight or for a long term condition like psoriasis or eczema can take several months to resolve.

Diet, lifestyle and emotions can also obviously have a big effect on the skin.

 Skin Itch is generic formula for itchy skin with some amount of redness/heat. Good or animals and humans.

Damp Heat Skin For those skin conditions that are raised and are moist or oozing yet may have red scales and itching. The condition gets worse in damp and hot weather or after eating (maybe weeks later) of hot, spicy foods. 

DrySkinCare For those skin conditions that are dry yet pale red, scaling, itching etc. Gets worse in dry or hot weather or in the winter months. 

Yang Xue Run Fu Yin is primarily for skin that is itchy and probably dry as well. There is more heat/ redness than DrySkinCare. It is a nice mix of heat clearing and moistening. Herbs like Xuan Shen and Sheng Di both clear heat and generate fluids at the same time. We have a version that is free of Dang Gui for those who have dry skin due to cancer treatments. (Doctors are always wary of Dang Gui for some reason.)

Skin Color is our formula with herbs that have been studied as a treatment for vitiligo. This would be used long-term. We make no claims as to its effectiveness.
