A:
Lots of products come in contact with your skin – soaps, lotions, anti-aging creams. Most of these are potent cocktails of multiple ingredients, and any of their components can cause an allergic reaction at any time, whether it’s a new product or a brand you’ve used for years. (Even “natural” ingredients like aloe or vitamin E can be the culprit.) It’s called contact dermatitis, and Spectrum Dermatology can soothe it! Through specialized, skin-specific patch testing and some smart detective work, we can isolate what’s bothering your complexion. Then we’ll help you find alternative products, so you can continue to get the results you want without all the irritation. Contact dermatitis? Contact Spectrum Dermatology! Have a question you’d like to ask? For more information, or to make an appointment, please call 480-404-9888 or visit www.spectrumdermatology.com.
