Active Ingredient
Coal Tar
Coal Tar is a medicated scalp-care ingredient with keratolytic properties. It helps slow excessive skin-cell growth and assists in reducing thickened, scaly skin. It is commonly used in products intended for dandruff, psoriasis, seborrheic dermatitis, and other scaling scalp conditions.
How It Works
Viso Tar Shampoo helps manage scalp scaling by supporting the shedding of accumulated dead skin cells and reducing excessive skin-cell buildup. Coal Tar can also provide soothing support for itching and inflammation associated with certain chronic scalp conditions.
