Care of the Dry Skin With Physiogel AI Lotion® (W0156)
Summary
Dry skin is a physiological condition and is characterized in contrast to greasy skin by roughness, desquamation and lack of brightness of the skin surface. Subjectively, feelings of tension, burning and itching can occur. Dry skin needs special care due to its structural and functional characteristics.We monitor an application test the Dermatocosmetics Oilatum Physiogel AI Lotion and Physiogel Lotion. This is to be accomplished with patients having dry skin. The influence on the roughness of skin, desquamation, feeling of tingle, burning and itching should be documented. If sleep quality is disturbed by tingle or itch, this will be monitored, too.
Description
The included patients use the lotion twice daily for a two-week period. If not sufficient it can be continued up to a four-weeks period. Additionally, the patient receives a documentation sheets to note several parameters. In a sensory assessment, product specific parameter such as spreadability, permeability, lubricating, smell of lotion and cosmetic acceptance during the treatment will be assessed (at the beginning, after 2 weeks, after 4 weeks, 2 weeks after stopping treatment). After four weeks the skin care measurement will be terminated and the patient can continue with a treatment of his choice. A monitoring of at least 50 patients per preparation is intended.

Medical and Biotech [MESH] Definitions
Fluocinolone Acetonide
A glucocorticoid derivative used topically in the treatment of various skin disorders. It is usually employed as a cream, gel, lotion, or ointment. It has also been used topically in the treatment of inflammatory eye, ear, and nose disorders. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p732)
Emulsions
Colloids formed by the combination of two immiscible liquids such as oil and water. Lipid-in-water emulsions are usually liquid, like milk or lotion. Water-in-lipid emulsions tend to be creams. The formation of emulsions may be aided by amphiphatic molecules that surround one component of the system to form MICELLES.
