What Is Eczema Treatment?

Eczema treatment focuses on reducing inflammation, relieving itching, restoring the skin barrier, and preventing recurring flare-ups associated with eczema and dermatitis.

• Targets: itching, redness, dryness, inflammation, and irritated skin
• Common factors: impaired skin barrier, immune reactions, irritants, allergens, and environmental triggers
• Key approach: control inflammation + restore the skin barrier + identify triggers
