I suddenly developed dermatitis months after a lazer hair removal burn and

subsequently use of sunscreen and moisturizer. I had a bad flare un 2 months ago

and now every moisturizer the dermatologists give me I do to soothe the dry skin

and also to protect the skin to heal reacts even worse on me. I even tried a

chemical free moisturizer, but nothing. Imm afraid Im not letting my skin heal

properly (Im already seeing hyperpigenation ad aging under my eyes, not to

mention the large raised skin streaks all over my face. Does anyone have this

same problem and can you suggest a cure to soother the dryness, heal my skin? I

am also very sensitive to the sun and have to cover my face completely otherwise

there is more damage to my skin and I heat up. Im in a hard place and the

dermatologists dont have an answer, neither do a few naturopaths Ive seen. Help

please!

I dont know if I mentioned that the dermatitis is on my face so it is extremely

sensitive and nothing I put on works, in fact it makes it worse (fare up and

raised skin streaks). Even olive oil does not work for me.

Thanks

Victoria

Also, I live in Toronto and have seen many dermatologists and a couple of

Naturopaths. No solution for me. Any recommended doctors who specialize in this?

Thanks

Sometimes getting your skin used to something new takes awhile. Be patient and

stay awat from chemicals and preservatives, they are harsh on the skin. Give

Blue Dolphin handmade Fragrance free soap and lotion" with shea butter a fair

chance. www.mybluedolphinsoap.com No

chemicals and no preservatives. Best of luck

Hi all,



I haven't posted in a while, because I am doing much much better  with my

Eczema outbreaks.  However, I wanted to share about what really  saved me

from a lot of undue suffering.  Most eczema (atopic dermatitis) is  caused from

a reaction to something we come in contact with.....a  skin allergy that

triggers the itching and inflamation.



After many years of suffering, I finally found a doctor that  educated me

on skin testing for allergies to ingredients and chemicals in  products we

use each day.  I was tested for approximately 200 different  substances to

find out what my chemical sensitivities were.  Once I found  out what

ingredients or chemicals I tested positive to, I had to eliminate every  product

that

contained these reactants.



I was surprised to find that the products I was using, which were  all

advertised as, "natural", "for sensitive skin" or "for eczema suffers" all

contained the ingredients that I had the worst re-actions to on my test 

results.



Once I eliminated those products, my eczema cleared tremendously,  no more

cracked skin, no more insane itching, no more weeping  skin...etc.



That is not to say I am 100% cured, but I would say I am definitely  at

least 80% improved.



Now, I could have taken the testing to a higher level, as there are

doctors out there that test for sensitivities to upwards of 1000 different

ingredients, but I didn't need to take it to that level...others may need this

depending on their level of suffering.



I hope this information is helpful to someone, because I debated  this

testing for years before I finally gave in and had it done, and I am very

grateful for the relief I have received as a result.



By the way, I still somewhat avoid the sun...as it is a trigger for  me

also.
