 Age-related functional disturbances of the skin are the reasons why so many elderly people do not feel comfortable in their own skin
The risk of skin irritations and skin diseases increases considerably in old age. Experts estimate that approx. 40 % of elderly people who do not live in nursing homes have a dermatological disease which requires medical treatment. Or another figure: More than 50% of all persons aged 60 and older are troubled by constant itching.
From a dermatological point of view, three aspects are especially important to avoid damage to the skin: thorough yet careful cleaning of the skin, followed by the buildup of effective skin protection, especially in the genital area of incontinence patients, as well as general regenerative skin care.
The cleansing, protection and care products of the Menalind professional and Menalind sensitive series were especially developed for the concerns of older skin. Menalind derm is the special care series for neurodermitic and dry skin.
