“Without a structured assessment process, including appropriate referrals when needed, you risk treating the symptom instead of the root cause”
Miss Jenny Doyle
According to Miss Doyle, effective skincare is a vital component in the management of dermatitis. She stresses the importance of identifying the underlying cause before reaching for topical solutions. As an oculoplastic surgeon, here Miss Doyle gives specific advice relating to dermatitis around the eyes. “The skin around the eyes is incredibly thin and reactive, but often what you’re seeing is a secondary effect of something else – whether it’s a reaction to makeup, expired skincare or even an underlying eye condition like allergic conjunctivitis or medication-related dermatitis,” she explains.
