FAQ: What are ceramides and why are they important for eczema?

Ceramides are the dominant lipid (fat) in the skin's outer barrier layer (stratum corneum) - they hold skin cells together and prevent water loss. Research consistently shows that eczema-prone skin has significantly reduced ceramide levels, resulting in a leaky barrier that allows irritants and allergens to penetrate while moisture escapes. Topical ceramide products help replenish this ceramide deficit, improving barrier function and reducing eczema flare frequency over time with consistent use.

FAQ: Is QV Dermcare Eczema Cream suitable for steroid-sparing therapy?

Yes - regular use of ceramide-enriched emollients is a core component of steroid-sparing therapy in eczema management. By improving barrier function and reducing flare frequency, consistent emollient use reduces the need for topical corticosteroids over time. Discuss a comprehensive eczema management plan including emollient therapy and appropriate steroid use with your dermatologist, GP or our pharmacist.
