Understanding Dermatitis & Eczema

Dermatitis is a broad term describing skin inflammation, characterised by changes in the function and structure of the skin's epidermis. There are several types of dermatitis, with severity ranging from mild to severe.


Although the terms eczema and dermatitis are often used interchangeably, eczema specifically refers to inflammatory skin conditions caused by a combination of genetic predisposition, immune system activation, environmental triggers, and stress. When the skin barrier is compromised, it becomes more vulnerable to allergens and irritants, triggering an immune response that results in painful, inflamed patches.


Effective management of eczema and dermatitis focuses on relieving active flare-ups, restoring the skin's integrity against environmental triggers, and reducing the frequency and severity of future episodes.


For individuals with chronic or severe eczema, as well as for children affected by the condition, collaboration with a doctor or dermatologist is essential. This ensures access to appropriate adjunctive medical treatments to achieve the best results while prioritising safety.

Tailored Care for Dermatitis and Eczema

 A personalised treatment plan can effectively manage your condition, restore skin health, and enhance your overall well-being. Genevieve Topalov provides expert support to help you achieve healthier skin and long-term relief.


Care may include:

  • Reducing flare-ups that disrupt daily life
  • Developing effective clinical skincare and management routines
  • Implementing therapies to support skin recovery and alleviate pain and itching
  • Creating strategies to minimise the recurrence of flare-ups
  • Addressing eczema and dermatitis in children that is impacting their daily life
