THOCLOR GF1 Aftercare

About Thoclor Labs
Hypochlorous Acid (HOCI) is the molecule the immune system makes to fight infection, reduce inflammation and heal wounds.
The manufacturing method at our ISO & GMP-certified laboratory in Stellenbosch is unique and proprietary. Our products are stable for at least 2 years and contain no undesirable byproducts.
The Thoclor Labs products are a water-based spray, not a lotion or cream, and must be used on clean skin. The products are not tested on animals, nor contain any ingredients derived from or tested on animals. They are 100% vegan-friendly as well as hypo-allergenic. 
Hypochlorous acid (HOCl) is a discretionary disinfectant it kills pathogens and is anti-microbial but doesn't interfere with good bacteria on the skin, so it is also microbiome friendly and safe for the environment.
The products can safely be used during pregnancy and whilst breastfeeding as there is no impact on the endocrine system. The spray is safe for use on children and infants.

How To Use:

Application Area             Face or body
Frequency of Use           Pre-and Post-procedure / Skin irritation occurs
Moment of Use               As indicated

Before Skin Procedure:

Spray GF1 onto cleansed skin before any skin treatment begins. This ensures that any pathogens on the skin are eliminated before the treatment.

Wash face or skin area with a liquid skin cleanser free of SLS and parabens. 

Gently pat dry with a clean towel.

Holding the bottle approximately 15 cm from the face or area of concern.

Spritz GF1 onto the face, neck and around the eyes or area of concern until the skin is moist.

Any pathogens on the skin will be killed on contact and the treatment can now commence the skin does not have to dry.

Post-procedure:

Once your skin manipulation treatment is finished follow these guidelines to speed up the healing process, prevent infection and reduce inflammation.

Apply GF1 IMMEDIATELY after your treatment to a cleansed skin, wash any other lotions or product used during the treatment off first.

A slight stinging or a feeling of tightness may occur for the first day of use.

Allow the skin to dry naturally, do not wipe the GF 1 off.

It is not recommended to accelerate this drying with a hairdryer or fan as the molecule is active when the skin is damp, so allowing this to evaporate naturally means the skin gets the optimal contact with the active ingredient and has time to be absorbed completely.

Continue to re-apply the spray to the face or the area treated once every 30 minutes for the rest of the day of the treatment.

If the skin is still red the day after the treatment, keep applying GF1 once every hour to the affected area until the skin is no longer red.

At this point, the skin will have recovered and healed from the treatment.

You can now switch back to your regular routine of GF2 morning and evening.

Your GF1 should be used again before your next procedure or treatment in the same way.

Note: GF1 will not harm your eyes and is safe if you accidentally swallow some.

Caution: DO NOT MIX with or into any other product. Always apply GF1 to a clean dry face and allow it to dry completely on the skin. During the post-treatment healing phase we recommend the use of other products is suspended until the skin is healed.
