Pityrosporum Folliculitis, also known as Malassezia Folliculitis, appears as an acne-like eruption often accompanied by itchiness, especially in areas with increased sebum production. These regions typically include the t-zone of the face, particularly the forehead, as well as the shoulders, chest, and back.
The yeast thrives on human sebum, which provides a rich source of lipids for its sustenance, contributing to its pathogenicity. Unfortunately, the impact of pathogenic Malassezia extends beyond Pityrosporum Folliculitis, potentially implicating several other dermatological conditions such as acne, dandruff, and seborrheic dermatitis.
Malassezia organisms form a resilient biofilm that acts as a protective shield, rendering them resistant to conventional antimicrobial treatments. Many commercially available antifungal products contain oils that inadvertently nourish the fungus and maintain the integrity of the biofilm, thus compromising the efficacy of the treatment.
In contrast, our Eczema Clearing Serum disrupts this biofilm and hampers fungal growth through the incorporation of natural antifungal ingredients. This unique formulation offers a more effective solution for clearing the skin of these conditions and managing them on a long-term basis.
