However, it is advisable that you get to learn more about the process, as well as weighing the options carefully to ensure that you are getting your money"s worth without putting your health at risk.


How to Choose a Right Moisturizer

Moisturizer is commonly used to make your skin look and feel smooth, but it can also relieve itchy, dry skin, reduce breakouts, eliminate the early signs of aging, and even protect you from sun damage. You may think that moisturizer is used to provide moisture to your skin, but the reality is that a good moisturizer actually helps your skin retain its own moisture level. Most moisturizers contain humectants. Humectants actually take water from the dermis and leave that water in the epidermis.


Psoriasis Creams and Eczema Creams Stop the Itch

While no definite cures have yet been found for both these diseases, there are many treatments that have helped alleviate the symptoms. Although eczema tends to spread fast,   it is not considered a serious ailment. Psoriasis on the other hand can develop into a more serious condition causing adverse effects on joints, similar to arthritis.

Psoriasis Cream

If the psoriasis has affected only a small part of the body, it is possible to treat the condition with topical psoriasis creams, gels and other prescribed medications that are usually applied direct to the effected area of the skin.

ð€×    Topical steroids ð€“ Most commonly used medication for mild psoriasis to reduce inflammation and itching. It also stops the build up of dead skin and comes in different strengths. Can be bought in the form of creams, lotions, ointments and gels. Steroid creams however do have side effects that should not be underestimated and should be used only under medical supervision.

ð€×    Anthralin ð€“ This is a synthetic medication that comes in the form of cream, ointment or paste and affects the enzymes of the skin cells in people with psoriasis.

ð€×    Dithranol ð€“ A very effective treatment for chronic psoriasis and should be applied very carefully to the effected area only. Should start with a low concentration which should be gradually increased in strength.

Eczema Cream

When treating eczema, the affected area should be soaked in lukewarm water for about 15 minutes to hydrate the skin and patted dry with a soft cloth. Skin should never be rubbed dry. Once the moisture is completely removed, one of the following creams should be applied.

ð€×    Topical steroids ð€“ Good for mild skin conditions and flare ups of eczema. Should not be used more than twice a day.

ð€×    Hydrocortisone cream ð€“ Suitable for use in young children or in the folds of skin in adults. Strong topical steroids should not be used in areas where the skin is thin; such as the face, neck, axilla and groin

ð€×    Protopic & Elidel Cream ð€“ The latest in eczema creams, they have no side effects at all and can even be used in children who are two years and older. Similar to topical steroids, they calm down the immune system and reduce symptoms of eczema.

It is always better to get advice from your doctor when treating both psoriasis and eczema.
