IN the fight against environmental pollution, dermatologists are now joining the fray because air pollutants infiltrate into the skin.
A possible result is that neurodermatitis can get worse since pollutants contribute to more itching and damage the skin barrier.
The right use of skin care can help. The skin is the size of 2 sq m, therefore it provides a large surface for attack!
With increased pollution, extra protection is definitely needed.
Daily washing can help to remove the pollutants but excessive cleaning may even impair the barrier function of the skin, which is the decisive factor. When the skin barrier is broken, and moisture is lost, that is when the skin gets dry and itchy.
It needs a special agent - linoleic acid - for restoring the barrier.
Unfortunately, the human body does not produce linoleic acid - that is why it must be supplied from the outside.
This is where Linola Lotion comes into play. It contains exactly the linoleic acids that help to seal the damaged lipid structures of the skin barrier. The rough skin becomes soft and supple again.
The Linola product range is available exclusively at Caring pharmacies.
