Sulsena paste, shampoo and oil: how effective is the popular series against dandruff and for hair growth

The tool is presented in several dosage forms. In the fight against dandruff, paste and shampoo are used, vitaminized oil is used to provide decent hair care.

Dosage forms, composition and principle of action

Shampoo, oil and paste "Sulsena", despite the common name, have a completely different composition. It is he who allows you to solve certain problems, whether it is the fight against dandruff, therapeutic and preventive effects or stimulation of growth of strands. Therefore, before choosing the right tool for yourself, you need to familiarize yourself with the contents of the components.

The active substances of the paste and shampoo are the component selenium disulfide. It is he who provides the fight against dandruff. The oil solution does not contain this substance. It is replaced by castor, olive and mink oil.

Against "flakes" on the head

Selenium disulfide, which is part of the paste and shampoo, provides a comprehensive fight against all the root causes of dandruff. Depending on the amount of active substance, drugs are released 1- and 2%. Trichologists indicate three areas of component operation.

1. Cytostatic effect. One of the causes of dandruff is the active work of the sebaceous glands. They intensively produce a secret that mixes with sebum, scales of the stratum corneum. Selenium disulfide allows the normal functioning of the sebaceous glands.
2. Fungicidal effect. Another fairly common source of dandruff is considered infection of the hair surface with yeast. The active component, getting on the skin, completely destroys the favorable conditions for the reproduction of such microorganisms. This leads to the death of the fungus.
3. Keratolic effect. Dandruff can result from increased exfoliation of dead dermal cells. "Sulsena" reduces the ability of the epidermis to peel. So the tool helps prevent the formation of dandruff.

To strengthen the strands

Vitaminized oil "Sulsena" is not able to fight dandruff. It is intended for completely different therapeutic effects, such as accelerating hair growth, protection against loss, restoration of the structure of the shaft. A detailed mechanism of oil exposure is presented in the table.

When recommend

The drug "Sulsena", regardless of the form of release, is intended for topical use. All components are able to penetrate the upper layers of the dermis, but do not enter the general bloodstream. Therefore, you can only rely on short-term results.

Indications for appointment

If we are talking about the fight against dandruff, then the most popular paste "Sulsena" for hair. For prevention, they often resort to shampoo. But in advanced cases, the combined effect of both drugs is recommended. Trichologists recommend "Sulsen" for the treatment of the following pathologies:

• dermatomycoses of diverse nature;
• excessive synthesis of sebum;
• painful itching;
• multi-colored lichen;
• seborrheic dermatitis (or ordinary dandruff);
• sebaceous gland diseases.

Expediency of use in other pathologies

The drug is not a panacea for all dermatological problems. Therefore, it is not necessary to think that he will save from any troubles. In the treatment of the five pathologies listed below, it is completely ineffective.

1. Vitiligo. Extremely unpleasant disease associated with impaired skin pigmentation. The reason is insufficient melanin production. The mechanism of the appearance of the disease is not fully understood. But there is an assumption of genetic heritage, endocrine disorders, exposure to chemicals. Fungal infection is not the cause of vitiligo, so neither paste, nor shampoo, nor oil can help in the treatment of pathology.
2. Psoriasis. Externally psoriasis of the scalp very similar to seborrheic dermatitis. It provokes the appearance of red peeling spots, which cause severe itching. The development of psoriasis is associated with excessive division of special cells. And since the immune system is involved in this process, it automatically triggers inflammatory reactions. The antifungal agent "Sulsena" will not bring relief. Immunosuppressants and anti-inflammatory glucocorticosteroids are prescribed to treat psoriasis.
3. Lichen. The drug "Sulsena" is able to help with pityriasis versicolor or multi-colored, since such a pathology is caused by the same types of fungus as seborrheic dermatitis. But if we are talking about ringworm or lichen giber, the drug is ineffective.
4. Demodecosis. So called parasitic disease of the dermis, the vector of which is the demodex tick. It affects the sebaceous ducts, hair. The tick secretes toxins that provoke excessive sebum production. Visually, it may look like the appearance of dandruff in the hair or the appearance of pink acne on the face. The drug "Sulsena" does not have an antiparasitic effect. Therefore, it is impractical to use it in the fight against demodicosis.
5. Acne. To combat acne, acne and comedones, a special mask, Sulsena Anti-Acne, is available. This tool contains components that can normalize the sebaceous glands, stop the activity of pathogenic microorganisms that trigger the formation process. acne. This tool can be used for the face, back and other areas of the skin on which acne is detected. The mask eliminates inflammation, disinfects the skin, cleanses and tones it.

Feedback and Results

The third time today I use Sulsen 2%, but dandruff less than 5 times (i.e. almost none), but I do not want to rush to conclusions, it is advisable to look at the state of the head for several. months. For half a year I have already suffered from dandruff and itching. I tried all sorts of “natural” dandruff shampoos, and pharmacy, all sorts of tar, shop options - nothing helps. Sulsen began to act from the first application, only I put it not as written in the instructions 3-5 minutes, but 15 minutes, like a mask. His hair is soft, the description indicates that it strengthens the hair, so I hope the effect should be only positive.
