“What should I do if I have thin skin?”

Updated

Issue

Some people have thin skin from previous steroid treatments that can crack and bleed.

What Dr. Harlan Would Do

In Dr. Harlan's practice he would recommend that his patients use a collagen containing product and Vitamin A along with his recommended SmartLotion regimen for their dermatitis to help heal their thin skin.

Please note that the only type of area where SmartLotion® should not be applied is inside an open wound. The anti-inflammatory effects of the 0.75% hydrocortisone can inhibit the healing of the wound.
