Over the past years of research and development we have received thousands of questions
regarding usability and efficacy. We have compiled a list of the most frequently asked questions to
make it easier for you to find the answer to any question you may have. If your question is not
here then please email it to us and our support team will be in touch.
What skin complaints will Apis Derma Skincare Cream help?
Clinical trials state 'that support can be given in the manufacturer's claims that Apis Derma™ is
an effective treatment for eczema'. As the testimonials indicate Apis Derma™ is also very effective
in providing relief for psoriasis, shingles, dermatitis and many other topical skin disorders. You
can use Apis Derma™ on any itchy, flaky, dry, cracked, irritable skin. The two extracts in Apis
Derma™ soak into the skin and help to boost your immune system and judging by the hundreds of
letters and testimonials from satisfied users Apis Derma™ is the most effective non-steroid skin
care product for most skin disorders on the market.
Will it cure my eczema or psoriasis?
We cannot tell you that it will cure your skin condition. We are however allowed to tell you that
the Apis Derma™ Skincare range may help to relieve your symptoms and that the skin care cream has
been on the market for 8 years in NZ with great success. Most of our testimonials are praising our
products for eczema or psoriasis control.
How often should I apply Apis Derma Skincare Cream?
Sparingly and often. If you have an itchy skin problem or a skin irritation apply the Apis Derma™
to the patches whenever the condition is annoying you.
How long before I know it is working?
That varies from person to person, depending on what your problem is, how bad it is and how long
you have had it. Some people can notice a difference after the first application, others find it
may be a week or two before they start to notice any difference. The key is to persevere with the
product. Because it is natural and there are so many different skin types we have developed a
formula that is suitable for most. If you have been a regular user of Hydrocortisone then you may
notice redness of the skin immediately after applying Apis Derma™ so we recommend ceasing use of
other products for a couple of days before using Apis Derma™. Then you can truly measure the
effectiveness of Apis derma.
Does it contain Lanolin?
No. We have found that a lot of people are allergic to lanolin.
Is it safe to apply around my eyes?
Yes. You can apply Apis Derma™ to your face and around your eyes but not in your eyes.
I am allergic to bee stings. If I use the product will it cause me to have an allergic
reaction?
No. Quite the contrary actually. In fact we have received testimonials from some users that through
using the product every day they have built up their immunity to beestings to the point of no
longer being allergic even in severe cases. Our studies have suggested this is due to the extracts
Mellifera A and B being derived from the hive of the honey bee and is used for the bees own
protection.
Is it safe to use on children?
Yes. If your child is 2 years of age or over it is fine to use, but if the child is under 2 years
of age or has more sensitive skin then we recommend that you use the Apis Derma Infant™ Formula
instead.
My skin is quite thin, will it harm it?
No. Apis Derma™ can repair that damage, but if your skin is very thin and sensitive you could start
off on the less concentrated Apis Derma Infant™ Formula.
Can I use it in conjunction with my doctor?s prescription?
If you are currently using a doctors prescription containing steroids or cortisone we suggest that
you finish it and have a two day break before using Apis Derma™. We feel that Apis Derma™ works
better when not used in conjunction with other creams. Some chemicals used in other skin creams
will actually harm or kill the natural Apis Mellifera extracts, therefore reducing their ability to
be effective.
My pet has got a skin disorder - could I try it on him/her?
Yes. Because it is a natural cream it will not do your pet any harm. You need to rub it in
thoroughly at least once a day. Apis Derma™ will not harm animals if they lick it off. Apis Derma
is used widely in New Zealand on various animals, from dogs to race horses, with great success,
consequently, we are currently developing a formula specifically for animals.
