London: Eczema is a common skin complaint in the U.K, affecting one in five children and one in twelve adults. The National Eczema Society runs National Eczema Week from 15th – 23rd September, aiming to raise awareness of skin condition, highlight the support available and raise funds for the organisation.

To mark National Eczema Week, one of the UK’s leading dermatologists will be offering sufferers an opportunity for a one-to-one consultation. This is a rare opportunity to discuss what can be a painful and embarrassing situation with an expert on skin conditions without a lengthy wait for an NHS Consultant or the expense of seeing a private consultant.

Dr. M. Schiele (pictured right) is a Biomedical Research Scientist who will be available throughout the week to talk about the symptoms of eczema and the various treatments available. Sufferers will be able to ‘book’ a slot online and the doctor will call them back to discuss their condition, possible causes and remedies.

Dr Schiele comments, “We get calls from many sufferers that are at their wits end; not everybody achieves satisfactory results from the most commonly prescribed medications. Additionally, many people are concerned about the long term implications of using steroid based creams, such as hydrocortisone, which is known to thin the skin over time and can damage the dermis permanently.

Following years of research and development, Salcura has launched the ‘Professional Skin Care Management’ range of natural skin therapy products. National Eczema Week is a great way of raising awareness of the symptoms and treatment of eczema which affects many people in the UK. The Salcura professional skin care management range offers effective natural alternatives for people who want rapid relief without the use of steroids. We are happy to discuss the various lifestyle changes and treatments available to those suffering with a skin complaint during Eczema week.’
