香港,中国 - Media OutReach - 2019124 - 随着科技进步,日常生活中不少产品含有致敏成份,经常接触可导致湿疹、干燥或痕痒等皮肤问题(1)。研究显示,全球大概15% 30% 学童及2% 10% 成年人患湿疹,近年更有上升趋势,而经常洗手或接触化学品的家庭主妇和护士更是高危一族(1-3)。皮肤干燥导致爆裂,会造成体表伤口,处理不当可能会感染细菌,实在不容忽视(4)

尿素、燕麦解救冬日皮肤烦恼

姜建华医生
从事皮肤学研究逾28年

市面上护肤产品种类繁多 留意成份避免致敏

近年,市面上声称不含香料或刺激性化学物的护肤品百花齐放,部份更标明适合皮肤敏感和湿疹患者使用。就此,从事皮肤学研究逾28年的姜建华医生提醒大众,真正的护手霜除了要具备润肤膏的效能,更应能预防及迅速消除脱皮、痕痒、皱纹、龟裂、干燥、指尖糜烂、小水泡和红斑。消费者在选购护肤产品时应小心分辨,并留意商品说明,查看成份是否含有香料、香水、精油或其他可能致敏的成份(5)。姜医生表示,由药厂研制的护肤产品的品质一般比较高。

研究证实含10% 尿素的护肤产品效能佳

含有10% 尿素成份的护肤品能提供类似人类皮脂膜的保护层,具有很好的保湿和角质代谢功效(6)。尿素又称碳酼二胺,在治疗皮肤疾病的应用已有过百年历史,研究证明尿素能纾缓皮肤痕痒、干燥、粗糙、爆裂和角化等症状,并有改善鱼鳞病和牛皮癣的作用(6-9)

澳洲肤润康高能软膏含10% 尿素成份,以特别生产技术,使尿素更有效地溶解于护肤液中,让10% 尿素真正发挥功效之余,涂于面部及嘴唇也不会堵塞毛孔。而且没有致敏或忌食成份,也不会导致副作用,异位性皮炎患者亦适合使用(10)

燕麦止痕保湿功效 获美国FDA认可

姜医生续指,除了护肤产品,日常洁肤可选用微酸性的沐浴露,令保护皮肤表面的油脂层不会因接触碱性洁肤液而溶解,导致干燥(7)。燕麦获美国食品及药物管理局认可具有止痕及保湿功效,常被用作洁肤产品的成份(11)。澳洲肤润康燕麦止痕沐浴露含2% 燕麦精华,高于市面一般燕麦护肤产品,有助细胞抗氧化和纾缓炎症,同时去除老化角质层及深层洁净皮肤,是2016年香港消费者委员会测试报告说明不含致敏防腐剂等,并具抗菌和保护皮肤效能,适合婴儿使用的沐浴露(11,12)

从日常生活保养皮肤

姜医生指,曾有一名内地模特儿患主妇手,皮肤出​​现干燥、破损、流血等症状,影响外观之余,亦阻碍了日常的模特儿拍照工作。她使用澳洲肤润康高能软膏后,双手回复滋润弹性。

皮肤问题并不能靠吃药根治,虽然一些含有类固醇的产品可纾缓湿疹,但长期使用会对身体产生副作用,患者应慎作选择。此外,患者应注意日常保养,例如避免以热水洗手、减少使用肥皂或含化学成份的护肤品,及在进入冷气地方时为皮肤进行适度保湿等等(3-5)。只要功夫做得足,拥有滋润的皮肤也不是难事。
