Conditions such as low stomach acid, dysbiosis and leaky gut all compromise the skin and may cause dermatitis, but more importantly these conditions may have future health ramifications such as auto immune disease, food sensitivities, allergies, asthma, depression and even cancer if they are not adequately addressed. In addition, low stomach will eventually lead to low levels of Zinc as well as other important minerals and vitamins which are absolutely essential for healthy skin.
We can treat eczema and dermatitis with various modalities, however, these treatments will not have long term success if the internal causes and issues are not addressed.
The following treatment options are available:
- IV Infusions
- Ozone Therapy
- Biopuncture
- Laser Genesis (Also known as the healing Laser)
- PDT with soothing and calming ingredients
- Carboxytherapy
- Health Renewal Consult to create a comprehensive supplementation plan for skin health
Why is stomach acid such a key factor in the treatment of skin conditions such as Eczema?
- If we have low stomach acid and an unhealthy gut microbiome, we are unable to absorb good nutrition. The skin will manifest all sorts of issues and conditions if it isn’t getting the nutrients it needs to stay healthy.
- How can we expect to stay healthy and have healthy skin if we have chronically poor nutrient and mineral absorption due to incomplete digestion? In fact, absorption can be reduced to the point where even if someone is consuming a nutrient-dense diet, they can suffer both sub-clinical and overt deficiencies. This is because they are not assimilating those nutrients because they have low stomach acid.
- We can improve the appearance of eczema & dermatitis topically with treatments and topical products, but if we don't improve the absorption problems associated with eczema, the condition will resurface at a later stage.
- Having normal levels of stomach function is the first important step for a healthy skin and immune system. At Skin Renewal our doctors will explain and check for low stomach acid to ensure optimal treatment of your condition. At Skin, Body & Health Renewal, all patients with skin conditions such as dermatitis are treated holistically by our experienced medical doctors. During a dermatitis consultation at Skin Renewal, your doctor will take a comprehensive look at your history, to ensure that there are no important underlying gut and medical conditions that are contributing to your dermatitis.
