What is dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa?

Dystrophic Epidermolysis bullosa (DEB) is one of the major forms of epidermolysis bullosa (Learn more here).

At the skin level, this rare inherited disease is characterized by cutaneous and mucosal fragility that cause generalized blistering of the skin and superficial ulcerations. 

How can dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa be relieved?

For the moment, there is unfortunately no cure for DEB. Treatments focus on managing the symptoms, which can be severe.

It is important to adopt companion care products that efficiently moisturise and relieve the skin. And it is also important that these products have very clean compositions, so as not to hurt the skin!

The Hydrating Gel Plus HS developed by Skintifique has very strong hydrating and soothing properties. This product is used daily in addition to their treatment by some people suffering from epidermolysis bullosa. Some use it in a localized way, while others use it on their whole body.

Of course, this gel does not cure epidermolysis bullosa, but the results generally provide a clear improvement of these people’s quality of life. 

According to the experience of users suffering from epidermolysis bullosa, this gel can be used 2 to 3 times less than classic hydrating products that they were using before, while getting an equivalent moisturising sensation and improving the quality of their skin.

These results are explained by the limited number of ingredients contained in the Hydrating Gel Plus HS, and the very innovative molecular structure of this gel-cream which ensures an exceptionally strong and deep hydration, and a long-lasting soothing effect.
