Abstract

Atopic dermatitis is a global problem with increasing prevalence. Genetic predisposition to allergies, epidermal barrier dysfunction, and T2 immune response underlie atopic dermatitis. Xerosis, itchy skin, and exacerbation are the main atopic dermatitis symptoms, leading to increased permeability of allergens and microbes through the damaged epidermis and to the development of sensitization. The main purpose of atopic dermatitis therapy is to achieve long-term remission and improve quality of life. Topical treatment includes glucocorticosteroids, topical calcineurin inhibitors, and emollients to reduce inflammation, xerosis, and infection prevention. Daily use of effective emollients as basic skin care can improve epidermal barrier function, provide skin hydration, and reduce the need for topical glucocorticosteroids.
