Efficacy of use of combined skincare routine on reduction of dermatitis symptoms
Keywords:
dermatitis, atopic skin condition, clinical grading, pilot studyAbstract
Atopic dermatitis is a chronic inflammatory skin disorder. However, careful skin care can help to control and alleviate everyday symptoms, such as very dry, irritated and red skin. The majority of the even natural skincare products aiming at the relief of the dermatitis symptoms are developed using traditional and typically irritating preservative systems being effective systems for maintaining the product often become a problem or harm to the user - causing loss of microbial diversity, causing the user to experience discomfort due to irritation. The study aims at checking the efficiency of the combined skincare routine of two formulations having been developed using a delicate preservation and lipid regeneration layer system to promote balanced skin-cell interactions and reduce homeostasis disorders in the form of skin barrier dysfunction or inflammation. Results show the overall decrease of all sensitive and visual symptoms. The most significant symptom reduction in the dimension of skin sensations was noted in burning/heat sensation and in the dimension of visible skin changes in extended vascular networking reduction. The results of the conducted study can be interpreted as indicating the beneficial effects of the use of nature-based skincare products in case of atopic dermatitis.
