We realize just how
difficult it can be to care for babies and young
children with eczema. The DermaSilk range
of infants and children's clothes has been specifically
designed to be an integral part of an overall
eczema treatment programme involving emollients and other topical medications.
Infants with
eczema can be very difficult to dress effectively
as they can be in a distressed state, continually
wriggle
and scratch and try to uncover themselves.
The DermaSilk range for
infants comprises separate body suit and
leggings designed for fast and easy changing.
Their design ensures a snug fit
whilst allowing for growth.
All the garment seams are
external to avoid any chafing of the skin
which might delay the healing process.
Hands and feet are protected
by DermaSilk integral mits and socks. The mits have a long cuff to allow the infant to stretch out their fingers and not feel trapped.
The silky feel of the fabric
is not only soothing to the child but also
helps control
body temperature to further improve the healing
process.
Please ensure that you check
our wear and care instructions in order to
get the
full range of benefits from your DermaSilk
clothing.
