What is a Skin Allergy?

A skin allergy occurs when your immune system reacts to a substance (allergen) that it perceives as harmful. This reaction can lead to redness, itching, swelling, rashes, blisters, or peeling skin. Common allergens include certain foods, pollen, dust, chemicals, skincare products, insect bites, and medications.

Common Skin Allergies We Treat

At Derma Skin Clinic, we diagnose and treat various skin allergies, including:

• Eczema (Atopic Dermatitis) – A chronic condition causing dry, itchy, inflamed skin.
• Contact Dermatitis – An allergic reaction triggered by skin contact with irritants like soaps, detergents, or cosmetics.
• Hives (Urticaria) – Red, itchy welts caused by allergens, stress, or temperature changes.
• Psoriasis – An immune-related skin condition leading to scaly, itchy patches.
• Allergic Reactions to Cosmetics & Skincare Products – Irritation caused by specific beauty products.
• Drug Reactions – Skin reactions resulting from medication side effects.
• Insect Bite Allergies – Swelling, redness, and itching caused by insect stings or bites.

Symptoms of Skin Allergies

If you experience any of the following symptoms, you may have a skin allergy:

✔️ Redness and inflammation
✔️ Itching or burning sensation
✔️ Rashes, bumps, or blisters
✔️ Peeling or flaking skin
✔️ Swelling around affected areas
✔️ Dry or cracked skin

If left untreated, skin allergies can worsen over time. Our dermatology experts can identify the root cause and recommend an effective treatment plan.

Our Allergy Treatment Process

Our dermatologists will examine your skin, discuss your symptoms, and conduct allergy tests (if necessary) to determine the exact cause of your allergic reaction.
