Understanding Atopic Dermatitis
At Hair & Aesthetic Skin Clinic, we specialize in diagnosing and managing Atopic Dermatitis with personalized treatment plans designed specifically for Indian skin types. Our goal is to relieve symptoms, repair the skin barrier, prevent flare-ups, and improve the quality of life for our patients.
Why Atopic Dermatitis Is Common in Indian Skin
Common Symptoms of Atopic Dermatitis
Atopic Dermatitis presents differently across age groups, but typical signs include:
Persistent itching, especially at night
Dry, rough, or scaly patches on the skin
Redness, inflammation, or darkening in affected areas
Oozing or crusting during severe flare-ups
Thickened skin from prolonged scratching
Hyperpigmentation or post-inflammatory marks, particularly common in Indian skin
The condition often affects the face, neck, elbows, knees, wrists, and ankles but can occur anywhere on the body. At our clinic, we provide thorough dermatological evaluations to identify the type and stage of dermatitis before beginning treatment.
Expert Diagnosis at Hair & Aesthetic Skin Clinic
Our dermatologists perform a detailed skin assessment to identify the cause and severity of the dermatitis. Diagnosis may include:
Detailed medical history (family, allergies, lifestyle, skincare habits)
Physical examination of affected areas
Patch testing to identify possible allergens
Skin barrier assessment and hydration analysis
This personalized diagnostic approach helps us determine the right course of treatment to control flare-ups and restore skin health effectively.
Customized Treatment Approach
At Hair & Aesthetic Skin Clinic, our treatment plans for Atopic Dermatitis are designed to reduce inflammation, soothe irritation, and strengthen the skin’s natural barrier. Depending on the severity, we combine topical, oral, and advanced dermatological therapies for long-term relief.
1. Topical Treatments
We use dermatologist-approved topical formulations that include:
Moisturizers and barrier repair creams enriched with ceramides and natural lipids
Mild corticosteroid creams to reduce inflammation and itching during flare-ups
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory creams such as calcineurin inhibitors for sensitive areas like the face and neck
Our experts carefully select products suited to Indian skin tones to prevent side effects such as pigmentation changes.
2. Advanced Medical Therapies
For moderate to severe cases, our clinic offers:
Phototherapy (Narrowband UVB Therapy) – a safe and effective light-based treatment that reduces inflammation and itching without the need for strong medications.
Immunomodulators and biologic therapies – for patients who do not respond to topical care, helping to control immune system overactivity.
Antihistamines or antibiotics – if infection or severe itching is present.
All treatments are monitored closely by our dermatologists to ensure patient comfort and long-term success.
3. Lifestyle & Skincare Counseling
Managing Atopic Dermatitis requires more than medication—it’s about long-term skin care and lifestyle modification. Our dermatologists guide patients through:
Gentle skincare routines using pH-balanced cleansers and fragrance-free moisturizers
Avoiding triggers such as wool clothing, perfumed soaps, and excessive heat
Stress management and diet advice to support immune balance
Regular hydration and sleep hygiene to reduce flare-ups
We emphasize holistic care, combining dermatological science with patient education for lasting results.
