Aquaphor Ointment is a tropical medication used to treat or prevent chapped lips or cracked skin, and to protect skin from the drying effects of wind or cold weather. Aquaphor is used to help protect minor cuts, scrapes, burns, or eczema.

Aquaphor Ointment works by creating a protective barrier on the skin that helps to prevent moisture loss and promote healing. The ointment contains petrolatum, which has excellent skin-barrier properties and can help to soothe and protect the skin. Petrolatum creates a protective layer on the skin’s surface, preventing moisture from escaping and locking in moisture to keep the skin hydrated.

To use Aquaphor Ointment, follow the directions provided on the product package. To use Aquaphor Ointment, follow these steps:

  1. Start with clean, dry skin.
  2. Apply a small amount of Aquaphor Ointment to the affected area of the skin as needed or as directed by your doctor or indicated on the label.
  3. Gently rub the ointment into the skin until it is fully absorbed.
  4. Reapply as often as necessary to help soothe and protect the skin.

The frequency of application will depend on the product and your skin condition. In the case of treating dry hands, applying the product every time you wash your hands throughout the day may be necessary. If you are using Aquaphor Ointment to treat diaper rash, ensure that the diaper area is cleaned well before use and allowed to dry before application. In case of treating radiation skin burns, check with radiation personnel to see if your brand can be applied before radiation therapy.
