In the first step, this Caffeine Shampoo Double Effect loosens scaly, keratinous cells and thoroughly removes dandruff from the scalp. From a dermatological standpoint, the combination of the two effective anti-dandruff substances, salicylic acid and octopirox, is recommendable, because it takes into account all dermatologically relevant aspects of cosmetic dandruff:
- Gentle dandruff removal
- Anti-inflammatory action
- Antioxidant effect, i. e. improved resistance
- Antimicrobial properties
In the secod step: The removal of dandruff from the scalp has prepared the way for the caffeine complex. Alpecin Double-Effect Shampoo contains highly dosed caffeine that penetrates into the hair roots already during hair washing. It can be detected after just 120 seconds of residence time. In the hair root, the active ingredient forms a 24-hour depot, thereby protecting the hair root from premature inactivity.
