The skin of babies, infants and young children is more sensitive than the skin of adults because the protective acid mantle is not yet fully developed.
Part of this is the sebaceous glands, which protect the skin by lubricating it.
In babies in particular, they do not yet work as they do in adults, which is why their skin can also dry out quickly.
If this is the case, it can lead to itching, open patches and inflammation.
Neurodermatitis
For children who suffer from neurodermatitis, great care must be taken with skin care.
The care products should not contain fragrances and additives.
With us, you will find various care series that are designed exactly for these needs.
Talk to us about this during your next visit to our pharmacy. We will be happy to advise you on this topic.
Sun protection for the skin of babies and children
A good sun protection is indispensable for babies and children!
The skin is particularly sensitive to harmful UV rays. Low pigmentation also increases sensitivity.
UV damage can be largely prevented by prudent behaviour.
- Babies should not be exposed to the sun.
- For children, the 4-H rule applies: hat, shirt, trousers, high light protection.
For the right sun protection, you will find a rich selection of suitable products with us.
We are happy to help you find the right product for your needs.
