Personalized Relief for Itchy, Inflamed Skin at DermLounge
Struggling with dry, itchy, or inflamed skin? Dermatitis is more than just a nuisance—it’s a chronic condition that can disrupt your daily comfort and self-confidence. At DermLounge, our dermatology team gets to the root of your symptoms, offering expert diagnosis and tailored treatments to help you achieve calm, clear skin.
Dermatitis is a broad term that refers to inflammation of the skin, often resulting in redness, itching, dryness, or blistering. It can appear suddenly or develop over time, and may be caused by allergens, irritants, environmental triggers, or underlying immune dysfunction.
Types of Dermatitis We Treat:
Contact Dermatitis: Triggered by allergens or irritants (e.g., nickel, fragrances, detergents)
Atopic Dermatitis (Eczema): Often genetic and chronic, linked to immune dysfunction
Seborrheic Dermatitis: Common in oily areas like the scalp, face, and chest
Nummular Dermatitis: Circular patches of irritated skin, often on the limbs
Stasis Dermatitis: Found on the lower legs due to poor circulation
No matter the cause, our mission is to help you regain comfort and confidence in your skin.

Symptoms of Dermatitis
Itchy or burning skin
Redness and swelling
Dry, flaky, or cracked skin
Blisters or fluid-filled bumps
Skin thickening or darkening from chronic scratching
Discomfort that worsens with specific exposures or environmental changes
Our providers perform a full assessment of your skin’s condition, distribution, and severity.
Step 2: Patch Testing (If Needed)
Patch testing helps identify contact allergens that may be triggering your skin’s immune response. Allergens are applied to a small area of skin and monitored for reaction over 48 hours.
Step 3: Skin Biopsy
For chronic or unclear cases, we may take a small sample of affected skin to analyze in our lab, confirming your diagnosis with precision.
Dermatitis Treatment Options
Our treatments are based on the type, cause, and severity of your condition. Common options include:
Topical Steroid
Used to reduce inflammation and control itching. Available in creams, ointments, or gels, these are often the first-line treatment for both acute and chronic dermatitis.
Topical Calcineurin Inhibitors (TCIs)
Tacrolimus (Protopic) and Pimecrolimus (Elidel) are steroid-sparing creams that help modulate immune activity in the skin—ideal for sensitive areas or long-term use.
Oral Corticosteroids
Prescribed for short-term control of severe flare-ups, oral steroids provide rapid relief for widespread inflammation.
Barrier Creams & Emollients
Supportive treatments like wet wraps and lifestyle adjustments can accelerate healing and minimize flare-ups.
Wet Wrap Therapy & Self-Care Guidance
Prescribed for short-term control of severe flare-ups, oral steroids provide rapid relief for widespread inflammation.
