Camphor
Provides soothing relief while being rich with antimicrobial, antibacterial, and anti-inflammatory properties. It can help support healing from a variety of skin ailments while also reducing the appearance of scarring which is already present. A 2015 study of camphor’s effects show it is also effective in treating damage from ultraviolet lights, as well as supporting the production of collagen.
Pharmaceutical-grade Petrolatum
Has been used to protect and moisturize the skin since the late 1800s. Petrolatum penetrates only the superficial layer of the skin and is not absorbed into the body. This helps seal your skin with a water-protective barrier to promote healing and protect against dehydration.
Hamamelis
Useful in the treatment of acne, due to its ability to stop bleeding and promote proper healing of the epidermis. It also exhibits powerful anti-inflammatory effects by acting on free radicals in your skin cells. Studies suggest hamamelis may also improve elasticity, hydration, and softness in the outer layer of skin.

I was given this as a sample after my treatment and I was told it would help with healing, which it definitely did! I also used it on a fresh tattoo and that healed flawlessly. You need so little of it, this tub is going to last forever!
