What is it?
Contact dermatitis is a skin reaction that occurs when a child’s skin comes in contact with an irritant or allergen. It leads to redness, itching, dryness, rashes, or blisters in the affected area. Common triggers include soaps, detergents, fragrances, metals, plants, certain fabrics, and skincare products. The rash usually appears only on the areas that come in direct contact with the triggering substance.
How it works
At Claire Derma, treatment focuses on identifying and eliminating the trigger while calming the inflamed skin. The dermatologist evaluates the child’s exposure history and skin reaction pattern. Treatment includes soothing topical medications, barrier-repair creams, and guidance on avoiding irritants and allergens to prevent recurrence.
