Understanding Eczema
While eczema is not contagious, it can significantly impact one’s quality of life, sleep, and confidence. At our clinic, we focus on identifying underlying causes and triggers to create a customized treatment plan that delivers both immediate relief and long-term results.
Eczema is a chronic inflammatory skin disorder that can affect both children and adults. It commonly appears on the face, neck, hands, elbows, and behind the knees. The condition may flare up periodically and then subside, often triggered by allergens, stress, weather changes, or irritants like harsh soaps and detergents.
The main symptoms include:
Persistent itching and redness
Dry, scaly, or cracked skin
Oozing or crusting in severe cases
Thickened or darkened skin due to repeated scratching
Comprehensive Eczema Diagnosis
Accurate diagnosis is the first step toward effective management. Our dermatologists begin with a detailed skin evaluation and medical history review to understand your condition, lifestyle, and possible allergens. Diagnostic tools and techniques may include:
Patch testing: To identify allergic triggers such as dust, fragrances, or metals.
Skin examination: To assess the severity, affected areas, and type of eczema.
Blood tests: To check for elevated IgE levels or associated allergies.
Once we understand the type and cause of your eczema—whether it’s atopic dermatitis, contact dermatitis, seborrheic dermatitis, or dyshidrotic eczema—we design a treatment plan that suits your skin type and lifestyle.
Personalized Eczema Treatment Plans
Every skin type is unique, and so is every eczema case. That’s why our clinic emphasizes individualized care rather than one-size-fits-all solutions. Our dermatologists combine modern dermatology with gentle, skin-friendly therapies to provide maximum comfort and results.
1. Medical Management
We use advanced topical and oral medications to control flare-ups and soothe inflammation:
Topical corticosteroids or calcineurin inhibitors to reduce itching and redness
Antihistamines to control allergic reactions and relieve itching
Moisturizers and emollients to restore the skin barrier
Antibiotics or antifungal creams if there’s a secondary infection
Our experts guide you on the correct use of these products to avoid side effects and dependency.
2. Advanced Light Therapy (Phototherapy)
For patients with chronic or widespread eczema, narrowband UVB phototherapy is a safe and effective treatment. Controlled ultraviolet light exposure helps reduce inflammation, itching, and bacteria on the skin. This therapy is performed under expert supervision to ensure safety and visible results.
3. Lifestyle and Skincare Guidance
Our holistic eczema management includes lifestyle counseling, as triggers often come from daily habits. We educate patients on:
Using fragrance-free soaps and moisturizers
Avoiding hot showers and harsh detergents
Wearing breathable cotton clothing
Managing stress through yoga, breathing techniques, and meditation
Following a balanced diet to reduce inflammation
4. Advanced Barrier Repair Treatments
Our clinic offers barrier repair therapies that restore moisture balance and strengthen the skin’s natural defense. These include medical-grade moisturizers, ceramide-based formulations, and hydrating treatments designed for Indian skin that is prone to dryness due to climatic conditions.
5. Injectable & Systemic Therapies
In severe or treatment-resistant eczema, our dermatologists may recommend biologic injections or immunomodulators that specifically target immune responses responsible for chronic inflammation. These advanced therapies are administered after thorough evaluation and monitoring.
Eczema Treatment for Indian Skin
Indian skin tends to be more melanin-rich, making it prone to pigmentation changes after inflammation. At our clinic, we use treatment methods that are gentle, pigmentation-safe, and suited for Indian skin tones. Our dermatologists are experienced in preventing and treating post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) and ensuring even skin tone recovery.
We also tailor treatments considering India’s humid and tropical climate, which often worsens eczema symptoms. Our customized skincare routines help maintain healthy hydration and protect against environmental triggers like pollution, dust, and heat.
