Reviews For Avene Cicalfate+ Restorative Protective Cream
Used for Post Procedure
My dermatologist recommended this product after Fraxel on my nose. Recently diagnosed with skin cancer which was removed by Mohs, then a skin graft. Very emollient and helps sooth the skin after the procedure. Reasonably priced, too.

Moisturizing
This is better than Aquaphor. My aesthetician highly recommended it. I am acne prone and this did not cause any problems.

BEST Restorative Cream
This is the best restorative cream I’ve ever used for after procedure skin. It’s also my go to when hydration creams can’t do the job w/ very dry skin whether it is your whole face, neck, chest or just a very dry random patch. This is a must have in your tool kit to have on hand when you need it most!

Soothing on irritated skin
I used this on my face for a few nights after overdoing it a bit with glycolic acid and it worked wonders. It feels thick going on, but my skin felt very soft and hydrated in the morning. I'm very fair and only noticed a slight white cast after applying. I don't think I'd wear this in the daytime under makeup and sunscreen. Seems too thick/pasty for that.

Amazing Product!!
I used a glycolic acid product that burned my face. I used this product by Avene and it calmed my skin down almost instantly. And it was moisturizing! The redness and burning were almost completely gone! After 5 minutes! What Kind of miracle is this stuff?? Thank you, Avene.!! This is going in my first aid beauty kit.

Staple Item
The Avene Cicalfate+ Restorative Protective Cream is a staple item in my skincare collection for so many reasons. My top three reasons are--(1) helps to heal and protect my hands from frequent handwashing (2) helps to heal and protect my skin where I remove an infusion set and sensor (T1D who wears an insulin pump +CGM) (3) to soothe dry patches. It is also great for soothing and protecting post-procedure skin (i.e., chemical peels and laser treatments).

Helped my dermatitis
I've been battling perioral dermatitis in my nasolabial folds for a year now. Nothing has been able to soothe my skin like avene cicalfate has. I ordered this product on the recommendation of a dermatologist. I seen a difference in a couple days. By two weeks the redness and flaky skin was gone. With continued use I'm hoping it won't return.

Great healing balm
Perfect to use as slugging on top of rosacea outbreaks or healing acne. Soothes and calms redness. I put on at night as slugging and my face is so smooth and soft in the morning

love it!
I had a very itchy rash and did not want to use a hydrocortisone cream. I used this instead and it was very soothing.

Excellent for Perioral Deematitis
I started getting perioral dermatitis around my mouth, a skin irritation that looks like acne but is actually a disruption of the skin’s acid barrier. It wasn’t until I tried Avene Cicalfate+ Restorative Protective Cream that I was able to clear it up! The cream is gentle and healing, and I’ve continued to use it as my daily moisturizer. If I use anything harsh on my face like an acid peel or tea tree oil, the Perioral Dermatitis will flare up again, so I generally avoid those things and always come back to my Avene cream to get my skin happy again. I definitely recommend it for sensitive skin issues of any kind!

Does what is says
I have had to use this cream a lot here lately. My skin has become very reactive. Not sure what is going on. I will definitely repurchase and look into other Avene products. To help with my reactive skin.

Cicalfate Restorative Protective Cream
As with most Avene products, I do recommend Cicalfate. I'm currently using it on a skin cancer scar to see if it will help smooth out the scar. It also helps improve your skin's moisture barrier. It's a good cream to have around for things like this. It is a very thick, soothing cream.

Excellent for Skin Barrier
I purchased this to address a chronic skin issue I’ve been battling for months. It’s worked better than anything I tried previously including antibiotics! It’s thick which takes some getting used to, but it melts into the skin with no detectable residue or sticky feeling. I’m repurchasing since I don’t want to run out.

Essential item
Avene Cicalfate is for me an essential item to recover from dermatology procedures. I first used it 20 years ago after a chemical peel., and I have used Avene products ever since. Now after a new dermatologist prescribed ointment for sun damage and keratosis, which left my face looking like a burn victim, and I knew I needed serious help. The Cicalfate has been of exceptional assistance, softening the healing process, and allowing appropriate peeling. It softens, relieves itching and burning, and disappears into the skin. Please know that the treatment was appropriate, and I'm grateful for a practitioner that didn't just tell me I had age spots. I'm very fair, and have been religious about protection, but sometimes that is not enough. I could not have gotten through this procedure without Cicalfate, and my practitioner now has this product on his list to recommend to other patients.

Hydrating, calming redness and soothing
I used AHA on my skin products and not knowing that I am allergic to it so my face is burning red and tight. When I apply the product instantly it provides healing and calming effects, the cream is so soothing and absorbed quickly. I recommend this product and give it a thumbs up. It also provides barrier to damaged skin and recover it slowly

Cured my dry winter skin
Avene Cicalfate has restored my dry winter skin & kept it feeling hydrated & healthy. It was even gentle enough to use on my under eye area.
