How does Aquaphor Healing Ointment® work?
Aquaphor Healing Ointment® forms a semi-occlusive barrier on top of the skin that helps draw moisture to the skin, allows excess moisture to escape while still allowing skin to breathe. This creates an ideal healing environment for minor cuts, scrapes, and minor burns by helping to protect the skin from moisture loss while allowing air to get at the wound.
