What, I need medical skin care products? “Doctor, I’m here to see a dermatologist, why are you introducing me to these skin care products?” Almost all dermatologists have encountered this question when they are seeing patients.
Here is the medical skincare Q&A time
It is clear that patients already have their own skin care products, moisturizers, sunscreen, face and body rubs, day creams, night creams, serums, masks …… can be said to have everything, and many of them are also internationally renowned brands with high prices. Why do many dermatologists also recommend patients to use medical skin care products? The truth is ……
Patient: Doctor, why does my skin disease always come back?
Doctor: Many skin diseases such as eczema, rosacea, hormone dependent dermatitis, psoriasis, ichthyosis, etc. are prone to recurrence, although the causes are different, they all have a common feature – damaged skin barrier!
Patient: What is the skin barrier? I always hear your doctors talk about it, what is it?
Doctor: In 1983, the American scholar Elias PM proposed the famous “brick wall theory” of the natural skin barrier. The natural barrier of the skin is a “brick wall structure” consisting of “lipids” and “natural moisturizing factors” between the cells of the stratum corneum and the cells, with “sebaceous glands” attached to its surface. The “sebaceous glands”, which together form the body’s natural protective barrier. Once the skin barrier is destroyed, the skin is prone to dryness and flaking; poor resistance to external stimuli, various bacteria, viruses or fungi can easily enter the dermis to trigger an immune response; skin blood vessels and nerve endings become highly reactive, prone to fever, itching and tingling, etc.
Patient: How can I repair the damaged skin barrier?
Doctor: Moisturize! Moisturize! Moisturize again! The first step is to repair the damaged barrier with safe moisturizing skincare products!
Patient: I have moisturizing skin care products, but some of them are allergic, some of them sting, and some of them are still very dry …… After all the moisturizing work, it’s still not moisturizing enough!
Doctor: As a professional dermatologist, at this time, I would recommend you to use a special skin care product. That is medical skin care products!

Patients: Medical skin care products? Isn’t it the legendary pharmaceutical products? Isn’t there a medicine in it? How can I use it?
Doctor: Medical skin care products are skin care products used by doctors to assist in the treatment of skin diseases.
