How to repair thin stratum corneum with damaged skin barrier
Methods for repairing damaged skin barrier and thin stratum corneum:
1. Use mild, non-irritating cleansers and skincare products, avoiding over-cleansing. Choose skincare products containing repair ingredients such as ceramides and panthenol, which help restore the skin barrier. Maintain skin hydration by using moisturizing products to prevent dryness.
2. If caused by dermatitis, topical immunomodulators such as tacrolimus ointment or pimecrolimus cream may be used as directed by a physician. In severe cases, antihistamines or corticosteroids may be prescribed under medical supervision.
3. Increase intake of protein-rich foods, especially those rich in collagen, to support skin repair. Avoid foods that commonly trigger allergies, such as seafood and mangoes.
4. After skin barrier damage, sun protection becomes even more important. Avoid direct sun exposure and minimize skin irritation.
