Help with neurodermatitis: the care revolution with filaggrin and ceramide building blocks
Dry, irritated skin, as occurs with neurodermatitis, often shows a genetic deficiency in filaggrin and ceramides (lipids). With this knowledge of the genetic connections in the development of neurodermatitis, we have developed the Cetaphil PRO ItchControl skin-soothing care lotion. In addition to skin-soothing, caring and moisturizing ingredients, the lotion also contains precisely the building blocks that it is often genetically lacking:

• filaggrin building blocks: help to store moisture in the skin
• ceramide building blocks: help to strengthen the skin barrier.

Filaggrin building blocks are components of the skin's natural moisturizing factor, while ceramides strengthen the skin barrier. If the skin barrier is weakened by a lack of filaggrin and ceramides, there is an increased loss of moisture. The result: the skin barrier is weakened and moisture is lost. The result: dry and itchy skin. Cetaphil PRO ItchControl Skin Soothing Care Lotion counteracts this with filaggrin and ceramide building blocks. Irritated and dry skin is so actively calmed and cared for.

Recommended use: Gently cleanse and care

• Gently clean:With the Cetaphil PRO ItchControl skin-soothing washing lotion, neurodermatitis skin is first gently cleaned and prepared for subsequent care with the Cetaphil PRO ItchControl skin-soothing care lotion. The Cetaphil PRO ItchControl Skin Soothing Wash Lotion helps to remove allergens, germs and dirt particles from the skin. At the same time, valuable ingredients can already be added to the skin during washing. It gently cleanses and foams and provides the skin with filaggrin building blocks and nourishing lipids from valuable shea butter and sunflower oil while cleaning.

• Targeted care:Consistent 2x daily care from valuable shea butter and sunflower can restore important building blocks to the skin that it is genetically lacking. The valuable filaggrin and ceramide building blocks of the Cetaphil PRO ItchControl skin-soothing care lotion specifically strengthen the barrier function and at the same time provide much-needed moisture.

Also suitable for sensitive baby and children
's skin. It is particularly important for babies and children to break the "itch-scratch vicious circle" and to prevent flare-ups of the disease as far as possible or to reduce their intensity. Therefore, choosing the right special care and cleaning is of great importance.

The tormenting itching is often particularly distressing for small patients. It often leads to sleep disturbances, which also disrupt the night's sleep of parents or siblings and can negatively affect the quality of life of the entire family. The special care effect and very good compatibility of the two products, also for sensitive baby and children's skin, has been dermatologically confirmed.
