FAQ Section

1. What is the Mediceuticals Dry Scalp Treatment Kit and what does it do?
This kit is a professional, three-step system clinically developed to treat dry, flaky, sensitive, and red scalps . It works to reduce itching, irritation, flaking, and the build-up of dead skin cells while promoting a healthy, hydrated scalp . By balancing the scalp's pH, it helps restore optimal scalp function and healthy hair growth .

2. What products are included in the kit?
The kit contains three 250ml products designed to be used as a complete regimen :

• Therarx (Pre-Treatment): An antibacterial scalp and skin wash applied to dry hair to help reduce redness, soreness, and prepare the scalp for treatment .

• X-Derma (Shampoo): A treatment shampoo specifically formulated to reduce dry scalp and hair, gently exfoliating dead skin cells .

• Therapeutic (Conditioner): A soothing scalp and hair rinse that cools, balances pH, and detangles without weighing hair down .

3. Who is this kit specifically for?
This kit is ideal for individuals with :

• Dry, flaky, or chapped scalp

• Sensitive or red scalp

• Scalp itching and irritation

• Build-up of dead skin cells

• Dandruff related to dryness

It is suitable for all hair types and safe for use on color-treated hair .

4. How do I use the three-step system?

1. Apply Therarx: Apply Therarx to the dry scalp on areas where the problem occurs. Do not add water. Leave on for 1 to 2 minutes .

2. Apply X-Derma Shampoo: Apply X-Derma shampoo directly over the Therarx (do not rinse first). Massage into the scalp and leave on for 2 to 3 minutes (or longer for intensive treatment), then rinse thoroughly .

3. Apply Therapeutic Conditioner: Towel-dry hair, then distribute Therapeutic conditioner over the scalp and hair. Leave on for 2 to 3 minutes, then rinse thoroughly . You will feel a pleasant cooling sensation on the scalp, which is normal .

5. How often should I use this kit?
For severe scalp issues, it is recommended to use the shampoo and conditioner daily for the first 14 days . During this initial period, use the Therarx pre-treatment 2 to 3 times per week . After the 14-day intensive phase, you can follow your own washing routine (advice is at least 3 times a week) .
