Childhood is the best time to treat ichthyosis

 Ichthyosis usually occurs in infants and young children, the disease is in the epidermis of the skin, and only the scales need to be removed. With age, ichthyosis can put a burden on other organs of the body and start to block the sebaceous glands, hair follicles, and sweat glands, so that the skin cannot be moisturized and becomes dry. There will also be some concomitant diseases, including markings, spots, and keratosis pilaris, which are more likely to be formed when the metabolism is strong during puberty. So early treatment of ichthyosis is the best choice.

Ichthyosis is a genetically inherited skin disorder

 Ichthyosis is a genetically inherited skin disorder, and symptoms of ichthyosis may be exhibited on all skin, including the scalp. 

Because not all ichthyosis patients have obvious scalp problems, it is easy to be ignored. In fact, head care is also very necessary. If scales start to build up on the scalp and clog the three glands, your hair will become extremely dry, severe hair loss will occur and it will be difficult to regenerate it. 

In response to this situation, Zhangjian Therapy has newly upgraded a shampoo, which can not only remove scalp scales, but also nourish the scalp. Buy one get one free for a limited time, click the link below if you are interested!

Why the effect of your treatments are so short-lived?

 Why the effect of your treatments are so short-lived? Because many treatments only remove scales temporarily, but ichthyosis patients have problems with skin function, and the skin cell growth cycle is short. As long as the skin function is not resolved, the scales will continue to regenerate.

It's like a house with a broken roof that keeps leaking water to the floor, just constantly sweeping the water off the floor is useless, water will keep leaking in unless the broken roof is repaired.

Have you ever used hormonal ointment or skin care products to treat #ichthyosis?

 Have you ever used hormonal ointment or skin care products to treat ichthyosis?

Some ointments contain hormones, which can be applied to the skin to help the recovery of dermatitis and eczema. However, long-term use will destroy the skin barrier, thin the cuticle of the skin, and cause a series of inflammatory reactions such as erythema, papules and pustules. The skin will also become more sensitive, resulting in dry skin, tight, burning, tingling and itching. 

A few days ago, we received a request for help from a patient with ichthyosis. The patient's skin has been seriously damaged due to the long-term use of ointment containing hormones. Once the hormone skin is formed like the pictures below, it is difficult to recover through treatment.

Therefore, ichthyosis patients remember to avoid long-term use of skin care products and ointment containing hormones!
