To exclude individual sensitivity to the components of the product, before the first use it is recommended to carry out a test - apply a little ointment to the bend of the elbow or the inside of the wrist.
If no undesirable manifestations occur within 24 hours, then the drug can be used to treat wrinkles and other age-related skin changes.
Contraindications
The medicine Relief has many beneficial properties. But it also has contraindications. Be sure to read them before use:

With prolonged use, the opposite effect may occur - dry and lifeless skin. Pale and dull.
Very often, after long-term use of the drug, redness appears, which goes away on its own. But if they persist for a long time and do not go away, this may be a sign of an allergy.
In a situation where urgent help is needed for “tired” skin, it is necessary to urgently hide bags and blueness under the eyes, Relief ointment will compete powerfully with fashionable products from cosmetics boutiques. The composition contains only natural ingredients, which makes it safe. In addition, the drug is affordable and sold in almost any pharmacy, and this is an undeniable advantage over popular anti-aging products from advertising.
For wrinkles around the eyes
After an allergy test has been carried out and the skin around the eyes has been cleansed with lotion or soft milk, the drug can be applied to the lower eyelid.
The product is applied along the radial bone using gentle finger movements . Avoid getting the ointment on the mucous membranes of the eyes. It is best to carry out this procedure in the evening - apply the ointment under the eyes for 15 minutes, and then remove the excess with a napkin.
To get a faster and more pronounced effect, it is recommended to use Relief in the form of patches - a cotton swab is generously soaked in ointment, and then applied to the lower eyelid for 10 minutes. Excess is removed with a dry cloth.
The effectiveness of using Relief ointment for removing wrinkles under the eyes, as well as reducing puffiness and dark circles, is confirmed by both a large number of women and cosmologists.
Expert opinion
Shustova Olga Leonidovna
Obstetrician-gynecologist of the highest category
It would seem that using Relief ointment for wrinkles is quite strange, because its intended purpose is completely different, but nevertheless, positive reviews indicate the opposite. It is unknown who first came up with the idea of using Anti-Wrinkle Relief, but we must admit that this idea turned out to be successful. The composition of Relief ointment is indeed in many ways similar to the composition of expensive anti-aging cosmetics. In addition, it contains only natural ingredients, which distinguishes it from many anti-aging cosmetic products. Due to its natural composition, allergic reactions and various side effects after using Relief occur very rarely. But the effect can be seen almost immediately. Some women use this drug for “first aid” - when they need to get their face in order very quickly. Relief ointment is sold in any pharmacy, is inexpensive and is available without a doctor's prescription.
The result of using Relief ointment
After getting acquainted with the composition of the ointment, there is no doubt about the advisability of using it in cosmetology. And this is confirmed by reviews from both specialists and ordinary users.
Expert opinion
Cosmetologists confirm that the use of the drug Relief has a beneficial effect and at the same time
- visible signs of dry skin are reduced;
- skin color improves, the effect of radiance from within appears;
- a lifting effect appears;
- skin tone increases and becomes noticeable to others;
- traces of fatigue are erased.
Cosmetologists very often resort to unconventional methods and recommend Relief as an anti-aging agent and emphasize its beneficial effects. But we cannot remain silent about the fact that doctors object to such use; they argue that it is intended for completely different purposes and, when applied, can cause an allergic reaction.
Consumer impressions
Most users are initially afraid to use the remedy for a delicate problem as an anti-aging cream. In addition, the drug emits a not very pleasant aroma of fish and this repels girls and women. But after trying it once, they recommend it to their friends.
Here are examples: “...the smell, of course, is specific, like fish, it smells strongly. But this is because the main component is shark liver oil, I read about this in the instructions. Apply the ointment to the forehead, skin around the eyes and mouth. On the first day I didn’t understand anything, the skin seemed to be moisturized, but the wrinkles had not gone away. But, of course, it’s stupid to wait for this. The first improvements appeared within ten days. Now I use it regularly, sometimes in its pure form, sometimes mixed with cream...” Natalya T. 40 years old.
“...Of course, the deep wrinkles have not gone away, but the fine ones have diminished. But the bruises and swelling under the eyes disappeared. The complexion became fresher and pinker. After the break, I’ll repeat the course.” Irina is 38 years old.

Shark liver helps renew skin cells, protects against inflammatory processes, strengthens the immune system, and prevents the development of tumors.
- Phenylephrine hydrochloride (0.25%) normalizes fluid outflow, relieves swelling, reduces itching, and constricts blood vessels.

- Beeswax is an excellent natural moisturizer. It retains water particles, protecting the skin from dehydration. Like other beekeeping products, it has powerful anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and antiviral properties. Wax is a strong antioxidant that stimulates cell renewal and restoration.
- Thyme (thyme) oil tones the skin, makes it elastic and soft, improves tissue metabolism.
- Corn oil is rich in bioactive components that create a protective barrier for the skin and increase its regenerative functions. The oil smoothes and tightens the skin, increases its elasticity, relieves inflammation and symptoms of fatigue.

Is it possible to use Relief to prevent the appearance of wrinkles?
As mentioned above, ointment is not a product intended for skin care. Accordingly, it is not recommended to use it on a regular basis over a long period of time. This remedy should only be considered as an emergency aid in extreme cases.
How relief helps with wrinkles on the face
If you follow a rational approach to using Relief ointment, you can quickly achieve the following results: the skin becomes softer, smoother, more elastic, its tone increases, and fine wrinkles disappear.
The components that make up the medicine stimulate regenerative processes in tissues, promoting their restoration and preventing the appearance of new skin folds.
Storage
The shelf life of Relief ointment is twenty-four months from the date of manufacture. It is recommended to store the ointment in a cool place away from sunlight. After the expiration date, the product cannot be used; this may lead to negative consequences.
Frequency of use
You need to fight wrinkles, but don’t get carried away with applying ointment. Experts do not advise doing this every day, otherwise the opposite effect will occur: drying of the skin and the appearance of new wrinkles. The ointment is applied 1-2 times a day and no more. It would be more correct to use the drug before bed, since it is undesirable to apply makeup to it.
Long-term use of ointment is also harmful. The course should last only 1-2 weeks. Afterwards it is recommended to take a break for 30 days. If this is neglected, then within a few months, due to the oversaturation of useful components, the skin will dry out, turn grey, become flabby and take on a tired appearance.
average price
On average, Relief ointment can be purchased in pharmacies for 307 rubles.
Indications for use
If we omit the direct purpose of the drug Relief and focus only on its cosmetic properties, the indications for use of the product will be as follows:
- skin aging;
- inflammation;
- pathological dryness and peeling of the skin;
- age-related changes - wrinkles, sagging, sagging facial contours;
- expression wrinkles;
- skin fatigue;

Preparation for the procedure, allergy test
Before using the drug, you should check whether your body tolerates it:
- apply a small amount to your wrist,
- rub the product into the skin,
- wait at least 1 hour.
If the surface does not turn red, does not begin to itch, and there are no rashes, the product can be safely used on the face. To do this, the skin is prepared as follows:
- remove decorative cosmetics,
- For better absorption, steam your face or do a light peel using a scrub.
Basic rules of use and how long to use
To make the effect of using Anti-Wrinkle Relief more pronounced, you should adhere to the following rules for its use:
- The product is not completely absorbed into the skin, so it should be applied to the skin in the evening, and after 5-10 minutes, remove excess with a dry cloth.
- Before applying the drug, you should thoroughly clean your face with alcohol-free cosmetics and then wash with warm water.
- Relief should not be applied to the entire face, but only to problem areas,
- Apply the ointment under the eyes to eliminate swelling and dark circles carefully, without stretching the delicate skin, and avoiding contact with the mucous membrane.
- To remove very deep skin folds, it is recommended to apply the ointment to problem areas in a thick layer.
As for the frequency of using the ointment, experts do not recommend applying it too often, otherwise the effect will be reversed.
The course of treatment for wrinkles is 1-2 weeks, then you should take a break for a month and repeat the treatment if necessary..
Too fanatical use of Wrinkle Relief ointment can lead to oversaturation of the skin with beneficial components, as a result of which it will turn grey, dry and look unhealthy.

Expert opinion on the use of Relief in cosmetology
Representatives of official medicine are quite skeptical about this method of eliminating skin defects. But cosmetologists know firsthand about the ability of antihemorrhoidal drugs to improve the condition of the dermis. They contain natural and synthetic ingredients necessary to combat skin aging. According to reviews from cosmetologists, Relief effectively eliminates circles and bags under the eyes. But they note that caution should be exercised when using it:
- do not exceed the duration of the therapeutic course;
- do not mix with other pharmacological drugs due to the possibility of chemical burns;
- If itching or burning occurs, immediately rinse the product under running water.
Cosmetologists warn that circles or bags are not always the individual characteristics of the body. These may be clinical manifestations of cardiovascular pathologies or diseases of the urinary organs.
Side effects
Since Relief is not intended for use on the face, the following adverse reactions may occur::
- allergy;
- increased heart rate and increased blood pressure;
- soreness and redness in the area where the drug is applied;
- headache;
- general deterioration of health.
CAREFULLY!
If adverse reactions occur, you must immediately remove the drug from your facial skin and avoid re-application in the future.
Cosmetologists' opinion
It must be said that reviews from cosmetologists about the use of Relief ointment in cosmetology are quite skeptical. The fact is that this drug is not a cosmetic product; it is not intended for facial skin care.
For this reason, the ointment, of course, has not been tested and is not a certified product. Thus, when using Relief for other purposes, women should understand the degree of risk.
Cosmetologists warn that using ointment for hemorrhoids to combat wrinkles can lead to undesirable consequences. Rashes, peeling and other undesirable consequences may occur. In addition, long-term use of ointment on the face is highly undesirable. In this case, the appearance of unpleasant consequences is almost inevitable.
There are many certified cosmetics for the care of aging skin, so experts do not recommend taking risks by using medications for other purposes.
How to use Relief to combat wrinkles
Cosmetologists who have adopted this extraordinary drug recommend using it no more than four times a month. As a last resort - once a day for a week, if this procedure is resorted to several times a year.
Before use, you must make sure that the product will not provoke an allergic reaction. To do this, a small amount of Relief is applied to the wrist, neck or earlobe. If no negative reactions occur within 24 hours (itching, burning, redness, rash), you can begin a cosmetic experiment.
Procedure steps:
- Cleanse your face and remove any remaining makeup with alcohol-free products to avoid drying out your skin. Ideally, do a soft peeling or steam bath.
- Apply a thin layer of ointment or Relief candles melted in a water bath along massage lines: from the center of the forehead to the temples, from the chin and nose to the upper cheekbones. This can be done with an applicator or with your fingers, performing light patting movements.
- For the first time, it is better to use a minimum of Relief ointment, mixing it with a moisturizer suitable for your skin type before application.
- Leave the mask on your face. After 30 minutes, remove any remaining residue with a soft cloth.
The face mask is in a gel-like form, which subsequently hardens and is easily removed from the face.
It is better to perform a cosmetic session in the evening before bedtime. If Relief is used during the day, the skin can retain an oily shine for a long time. In extreme cases, it can be disguised with mattifying cream.
Pharmacological properties
Relief ointment has a strong anti-inflammatory, wound-healing, anti-edematous effect, improves the permeability of blood vessels, eliminates the risk of blood clots, making the blood more fluid.
The regenerating properties of the ointment are due to its combined composition:
- Shark liver oil reduces itching, has strong wound healing and immunomodulatory properties, and activates the production of collagen fibers.
- An important active component - phenylephrine - strengthens blood vessels, relieves pastiness, reduces itching, activates cell rejuvenation, and turns on the process of restoration of damaged tissues.
- Cocoa butter restores the skin and helps soften the skin.
- Oils and vitamins of plant origin relieve redness and flaking of the skin.
How often can anti-hemorrhoid remedies be applied to the face?
You should use cream, suppositories or ointment not for its intended purpose, but to get rid of wrinkles on the face, very carefully. It is not recommended to use them often.
It is recommended to apply them to the skin only in emergency cases when an immediate effect is needed.
For example, you need to refresh your face after a hectic night or on the eve of an important event, when you need to look 100%. This is exactly what British film actress Kate Moss meant when she said that she, like Sandra Bullock, sometimes uses hemorrhoid cream against wrinkles on her face. Please note, not to prevent wrinkles, but to reduce existing ones on the face.
What is the strength
A sign of age-related skin aging is the loss of its former elasticity and the appearance of skin folds (wrinkles) of a longitudinal, transverse or circular appearance, which are often localized on exposed parts of the body exposed to constant external influences. Internal causes also play an important role in the skin’s loss of natural elasticity. At first glance, the possibility of using hemorrhoid ointment or cream against wrinkles on the face may seem strange. However, this method has a completely understandable explanation - it’s all about the composition of the drug, which is suitable not only for the treatment of inflamed and enlarged hemorrhoidal plexuses, but also for solving cosmetic problems.
Creams and ointments for hemorrhoids have a light texture, have a mild effect, are able to be quickly absorbed and give a positive result after just one use due to the content of unique components.
Typically, the cream contains the following substances in different combinations and quantities:
- lanolin, glycerin or beeswax - used as a base that softens and moisturizes the skin;
- extracts of various medicinal herbs - have anti-inflammatory, tonic, antiseptic, regenerating effects;
- essential oils – increase vascular tone, prevent the enzymatic breakdown of collagen and elastin fibers and maintain skin turgor;
- vegetable and animal oils (for example, shark oil) and organic acids - saturate the skin with vitamins, participate in basic metabolic processes, improve complexion, prevent the formation of new wrinkles, renew the epidermis, replenish collagen reserves;
- heparin – reduces blood viscosity, resolves blood clots, improves local blood circulation;
- phenylephrine - constricts small blood vessels, reduces swelling of soft tissues, improves venous outflow, and provides a temporary skin tightening effect.
When do the first wrinkles appear?
The skin begins to age after reaching the age of 20, as a result of which girls begin to resort to the most unusual means to look young and beautiful.
The main indicator of facial skin aging is loss of elasticity. This is why the first folds or wrinkles begin to appear.
Experts divide them into several main groups:
- Mimic (formed due to active contraction of the facial muscles);
- Static (in no way related to facial expressions, occurs after 40 years);
- Gravitational (small folds eventually turn into deep folds, which causes sagging skin or ptosis).
Mostly folds occur in open areas of our body. After all, they are the ones who are actively exposed to external influences:
- Solar radiation;
- Climate features;
- Harmful environmental factors.
In addition, the appearance of wrinkles is affected by poor health, poor-quality or incorrectly selected cosmetics, various chronic ailments, and sudden changes in body weight. And this is only a small part of the reasons for the appearance of premature folds.
"Relief" and its analogues
The most popular antihemorrhoidal drug is Relief cream. Its popularity is due to the fact that it consists of 3% shark oil. By applying the product to your facial skin, you help it renew itself faster and get rid of metabolic waste.
In addition to Relief cream and suppositories, the pharmacy offers many products that can help in the fight against age-related deficiencies. They are sold without a prescription, and the price, compared to good cosmetics, is low.
Pharmaceutical products that are used in cosmetic procedures at home:
- Heparin ointment. This product effectively eliminates dark circles under the eyes. The action of the main component of the ointment, heparin, is aimed at eliminating swelling, hematomas, and bruises.
- “Sports” gel-balm. This gel softens and nourishes, helps get rid of bruises and swelling, and improves blood circulation.
- "Trombless" gel. The drug is a direct anticoagulant that prevents active blood clotting in areas of swelling.
- Troxevasin. Its main advantage in cosmetic procedures is its healing and anti-inflammatory effect. In addition, it relaxes the muscles, as a result of which fine wrinkles are temporarily smoothed out.
- Troxerutin gel. Women and men who struggle with age-related symptoms use this gel. Its main advantage: retention of hyaluronic acid.
You should not regularly use medications that are not aimed at combating age-related changes and are not intended to eliminate wrinkles, bruises and swelling. There are a lot of facial care products for this purpose. Therefore, use a variety of pharmaceutical gels and ointments only in emergency cases.
