QV Intensive Ointment for Very Dry Skin Relief

You can rely on this QV intensive ointment to provide long-lasting moisture for severely dry and compromised skin. This 450g tube contains a concentrated formulation designed specifically for areas that require intensive hydration and barrier repair.

The ointment creates a protective layer on your skin surface whilst delivering deep moisturisation to help restore your skin's natural barrier function. You'll find this particularly beneficial when standard moisturisers haven't provided adequate relief for your dry skin concerns.

How QV Intensive Ointment Works on Your Skin

This ointment works by forming an occlusive barrier that prevents water loss from your skin whilst allowing essential moisture to penetrate deeper layers. The formulation helps to repair damaged skin barriers and supports your skin's natural healing processes.

You'll notice the thick, rich texture spreads easily despite its concentrated nature. The ointment remains on your skin surface longer than lighter formulations, providing extended protection and hydration throughout the day or night.

Who Should Use This Intensive Moisturising Treatment

This ointment suits you if you experience persistent dryness that hasn't responded well to regular moisturisers. You may find it particularly helpful if you have skin conditions that cause severe dryness or if environmental factors have compromised your skin barrier.

The formulation is suitable for various skin types experiencing dryness, and you can explore our full range of skin care products to find complementary treatments for your specific needs.

Suitable for very dry and cracked skin areas
Can be used on hands, elbows, knees and other problem areas
Appropriate for daily use as part of your skincare routine
Compatible with sensitive skin types

Why Choose a Preservative-Free Formulation

This ointment contains no added preservatives, reducing the risk of skin irritation that some people experience with preserved products. The preservative-free formulation makes it particularly suitable if you have reactive or sensitive skin that doesn't tolerate certain additives well.

You benefit from a gentler approach to intensive moisturisation without compromising on effectiveness. The absence of preservatives means you're less likely to experience adverse reactions whilst still receiving the deep hydration your skin requires.

Clinical Suitability and Storage Requirements

You should store this ointment below 25°C and keep the tube tightly closed when not in use. The preservative-free nature means proper storage is essential to maintain product integrity and safety.

This product has been formulated to meet clinical standards for dry skin management. You can use it as part of a comprehensive skincare routine or as directed by your healthcare professional for specific skin concerns requiring intensive moisturisation.

This product is a medicine. Speak to your doctor or pharmacist before using if you have an underlying medical condition or are taking other medicines.

How to Apply QV Intensive Ointment Correctly

You should apply a thin layer of the ointment to clean, dry skin as needed throughout the day. Gently massage the product into your skin until it's absorbed, paying particular attention to areas of severe dryness such as elbows, knees, and hands.

For optimal results, you can apply the ointment after bathing whilst your skin is still slightly damp to help lock in moisture. The thick consistency means a small amount covers a larger area than you might expect.

When and How Often to Use This Treatment

You can use this ointment as frequently as needed, typically two to three times daily or as your skin condition requires. Many people find applying it before bedtime particularly beneficial as the ointment can work overnight without being disturbed by clothing or daily activities.

If you're using other topical treatments, you should apply this ointment after any prescribed medications have been absorbed. Always wash your hands thoroughly after application unless you're treating your hands specifically.

Possible Side Effects of QV Intensive Ointment

Like all medicines, QV Intensive Ointment can have side effects, although not everyone will experience them. You can find additional support for various skin concerns through our creams and ointments collection if you need alternative treatments.

Most people tolerate this ointment well, but some may experience mild skin reactions, particularly when first starting treatment. These effects are typically temporary and resolve as your skin adjusts to the product.

Temporary stinging or burning sensation
Redness around treated areas
Increased skin sensitivity
Contact dermatitis in sensitive individuals
Temporary worsening of skin condition
