Principle of effectiveness

Clinical studies1 were conducted to prove the efficacy of Eucerin® pH5 protection.

Without pollen protection

Aeroallergens penetrate into the skin. Especially into the hair follicles.

With pollen protection

With pollen protection

Effectively protected with Eucerin® – the allergen load of the body significantly decreases.

Hair follicles - an especially weak point

Recently, it has been proven that the skin’s hair follicles are especially weak points for the penetration of aeroallergens. They represent an efficient and fast penetration pathway for allergens. Moreover, substances that penetrate into these follicles are stored up to ten times longer than in the horny layer.
