Many people suffer from sensitive skin that is predisposed to developing redness, lesions and allergic phenomena as it comes in contact with certain substances or due to environmental conditions, as well as inflammatory skin diseases such as: seborrhoea, psoriasis, atopic dermatitis and rosacea. These diseases damage the aesthetic appearance and often result in suffering and a sense of discomfort in the skin. The exact cause for their manifestation is unclear, but they are all chronic diseases related to an autoimmune response and are accompanied by inflammation of the skin. Inflammation that appears on the skin surface is an essential reaction of the immune system, designated to protect the body from the invasion of intruders: viruses or bacteria. An inflammatory response is how the immune system attempts to neutralize the intruders. However, the inflammatory reaction sometimes becomes out of control and as a result the immune system damages healthy skin tissue.
