How to Choose & Use Products To Control Eczema: A Science-Backed Roadmap

The devil is in the details, and in this episode of the Eczema Breakthroughs Podcast, we dive deep into smarter skin care for kids with eczema. Dr. Helen Brough (Director: Children’s Allergy Doctors, London), one of the leading experts in eczema treatment, shares step-by-step, evidence-based guidance on moisturizing, bathing, and proactive steroid use. Joining her is Dr. Amber Atwater (Clinical Associate Professor of Dermatology, George Washington University), who unpacks the tricky overlap between allergic contact dermatitis and atopic dermatitis, and why choosing low-allergen products is essential.
