Effective skin health relies on maintaining moisture for a smooth, supple, and healthy complexion.

Feinstein Dermatology takes pride in offering dedicated eczema relief for individuals within the Delray Beach, FL community. Our commitment to patient care ensures that you receive comprehensive support in addressing and alleviating the effects of eczema, empowering you to enjoy healthier and more comfortable skin.
Atopic Dermatitis and Its Causes
Eczema, also known as atopic dermatitis, often manifests in early childhood, and while symptoms may alleviate with age, this outcome is not guaranteed. The precise causes of this condition remain a subject of ongoing research, with a widely recognized consensus pointing towards a strong genetic component, possibly aggravated by environmental factors and by the strength of the immune system.
If you have eczema, you may notice red, itchy patches on your skin, with the most common areas being the arms and behind the knees. However, these patches can also appear elsewhere on your body.
Treatment Options
The first step in your eczema treatment journey is to seek a diagnosis from one of our board-certified dermatologists, who can help to identify some of the factors causing eczema flare-ups.
While you cannot cure eczema, you can manage its symptoms and reduce flare-ups. Topical solutions, including steroids and antihistamines, often prove effective, along with oral medications and light therapy.
Tips for Managing
To help manage eczema flare-ups, your dermatologist might recommend shorter, lukewarm showers as well as topical or oral medications to keep inflammation under control.
