As the dry season intensifies across the country, parents are being urged to simplify skincare routines for children with sensitive skin to help prevent irritation and recurring flare-ups, a pediatric dermatologist said.
Dr. Wilsie Salas-Walinsundin, a pediatric dermatologist, said children with sensitive skin often have an “impaired or problematic skin barrier.”
During the dry season, when weather conditions are hot and humid, she said sun exposure can activate skin receptors, triggering chemical reactions that lead to itchiness.
“And when it keeps on scratching, now there’s the problem, the problem will now come out,” Ms. Walinsundin said during the DMark Beauty and ISISPHARMA Dermatologie summer collaboration event on Thursday.
