Lyclear Treatment Shampoo 200ml

Lyclear Head Lice Treatment Shampoo 200ml

You can effectively eliminate head lice and their eggs with this clinically proven treatment shampoo. The formulation works by targeting both adult lice and nits through a dual-action approach that disrupts the lice life cycle. This 200ml bottle provides sufficient treatment for multiple applications, ensuring complete eradication when used as directed.

The shampoo contains dimethicone, a silicone-based ingredient that physically coats lice and prevents them from breathing. Unlike traditional insecticide-based treatments, this approach means lice cannot develop resistance to the treatment mechanism. You apply the product to dry hair, ensuring complete coverage from roots to tips for optimal effectiveness.

How This Treatment Eliminates Lice

The active ingredient works by forming a coating around lice that blocks their breathing holes, causing them to suffocate. This physical mode of action differs from chemical insecticides and provides reliable results even against lice that may have developed resistance to other treatments. The formulation also helps to loosen nits from hair shafts, making them easier to remove during combing.

You leave the treatment on dry hair for 15 minutes before adding water to create a lather, then rinse thoroughly. The treatment should be repeated after 7 days to catch any lice that may have hatched from eggs since the first application. This timing corresponds to the lice life cycle and ensures complete elimination.

Suitable for Family Use

This head lice treatment is suitable for adults and children over 6 months of age, making it appropriate for whole family treatment when needed. The gentle formulation causes minimal irritation to the scalp whilst maintaining effectiveness against lice infestations. You can use this treatment alongside other head lice products such as detection combs and conditioning treatments.

The treatment is particularly suitable for:

• Children and adults with confirmed head lice infestations
• Families requiring simultaneous treatment of multiple members
• Individuals who have not responded to other lice treatments
• Those seeking a non-insecticide approach to lice removal

Clinically Proven Effectiveness

Clinical studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of dimethicone-based treatments in eliminating head lice infestations. The physical mode of action provides consistent results without the risk of resistance development that can occur with insecticide-based products. You can expect to see dead lice after the first treatment, with complete elimination typically achieved after the second application.

The treatment has been formulated to work effectively across different hair types and lengths. Regular use of a fine-toothed nit comb following treatment helps to remove dead lice and loosened eggs, supporting the overall treatment process.

Storage and Application Guidelines

Store this treatment at room temperature and keep the bottle tightly closed when not in use. Check the expiry date before each application and do not use if the product has passed its expiration date. Apply to completely dry hair for optimal effectiveness, as wet hair can dilute the active ingredient and reduce treatment efficacy.

You should examine all family members for signs of head lice before treatment and treat all affected individuals simultaneously to prevent re-infestation. Wash bedding, clothing, and personal items in hot water on the same day as treatment to eliminate any lice or eggs that may be present on these items.
