FAQs

What is DermAid used for?

DermAid is a topical corticosteroid cream used to relieve skin inflammation and itching caused by skin conditions such as mild eczema, dermatitis, psoriasis, as well as sunburn, insect bites and contact dermatitis from cosmetics and jewellery. It helps to reduce mild swelling, redness and itchiness.

What's the difference between DermAid and DermAid Soft?

DermAid Soft is formulated with dispersed hydrocortisone, making it more gentle for sensitive skin areas. While regular DermAid contains dissolved hydrocortisone, which penetrates the skin more rapidly.

What's the difference between DermAid 1% vs 0.5%?

DermAid 1% contains 1% hydrocortisone, which provides stronger relief for mild skin irritations, while DermAid 0.5% has a lower strength and is generally recommended for milder skin irritations or sensitive skin areas.

How does a hydrocortisone help relieve irritated skin?

Hydrocortisone is a corticosteroid that works by reducing inflammation in the skin. It blocks the production of chemicals that cause swelling, redness, and itching, providing relief for irritated skin.

Can DermAid be used on the face?

DermAid Soft 0.5% Cream is recommended for use on the face, but should be applied with caution and away from the eye area. DermAid Soft 0.5% has hydrocortisone dispersed to offer gentle and effective temporary relief for sensitive areas, such as facial skin. Always follow the guidance of a healthcare professional.

Can DermAid be used to treat fungal infections?

No, DermAid is not an antifungal treatment. It is used for skin inflammation caused by conditions like mild eczema, psoriasis or dermatitis. If you need to treat a fungal infection, it's best to seek professional advice from a healthcare professional to determine appropriate treatment.

Is DermAid antibacterial?

DermAid does not have antibacterial properties. It is a corticosteroid used to treat inflammation and should not be used to treat bacterial infections.

Does DermAid contain steroids?

Yes, DermAid contains hydrocortisone, which is a mild steroid. It helps reduce minor skin inflammation and irritation.
