Lyclear Express Lotion 100ml
Lyclear Express Head Lice Treatment
Lyclear Express Lotion provides a clinically proven solution for treating head lice infestations in both children and adults. This 100ml treatment contains dimeticone, a silicone-based ingredient that works by coating lice and disrupting their ability to manage water, leading to their elimination. You can apply this treatment to dry hair and leave it for 15 minutes before washing out with normal shampoo.
The lotion targets all stages of the lice lifecycle, including eggs (nits), making it effective as a single treatment. Unlike some traditional treatments, this formulation does not rely on pesticides, reducing the risk of resistance that can develop with repeated use of chemical-based products.
How Dimeticone Works Against Lice
The active ingredient dimeticone creates a physical barrier that coats the lice completely. This coating prevents the insects from excreting excess water, causing them to become immobilised and die. The same mechanism affects lice eggs, preventing them from hatching successfully.
You should comb through the hair with the included detection comb after treatment to remove dead lice and eggs. The physical mode of action means lice cannot develop resistance to this treatment method, unlike some chemical alternatives available in our head lice collection.
Suitable for Family Use
This head lice treatment can be used by children from 6 months of age and adults. The gentle formulation makes it appropriate for sensitive scalps and those who may react to harsher chemical treatments. You can use it during pregnancy and breastfeeding when other treatments may not be suitable.
The treatment is particularly beneficial for:
- Families dealing with recurrent lice infestations
- Children with sensitive skin or allergies to traditional treatments
- Adults who prefer non-pesticide approaches
- Households where multiple family members require treatment
Preservative-Free Formulation Benefits
Lyclear Express contains no added preservatives, reducing the likelihood of skin irritation or allergic reactions. This makes it particularly suitable for children with eczema or sensitive skin conditions. The absence of harsh chemicals also means you can repeat the treatment if necessary without concerns about cumulative chemical exposure.
The lotion rinses out easily with regular shampoo, leaving no residue in the hair. You should check all family members for lice and treat simultaneously to prevent re-infestation within the household.
Storage and Clinical Considerations
Store this treatment at room temperature and use within the expiry date printed on the packaging. The 100ml bottle provides sufficient product for multiple applications or treating several family members. You should avoid contact with eyes during application and rinse thoroughly if accidental contact occurs.
Clinical studies demonstrate that dimeticone-based treatments achieve high success rates when applied correctly. You may need to repeat the treatment after 7 days if live lice are still present, as this ensures any newly hatched lice are eliminated before they can reproduce.
This product is a medicine. Speak to your doctor or pharmacist before using if you have an underlying medical condition or are taking other medicines.
