Sincerely, Bethel: Cetaphil National Healthy Skin Mission

Nothing feels better when you have a healthy skin. It doesn’t necessarily have to be a glass skin because a consistent and plump skin is also a sign of healthy and well hydrated skin.

For over 70 years, Cetaphil has always been the most prescribed skin care brand by dermatologists in the Philippines. Cetaphil, in partnership with Watsons, launched National Healthy Skin Mission. This is an educational campaign that aims to educate Filipinos on how to achieve healthy skin.

Dr. Kristy Alo, MD started the afterrnon talking about Atopic Dermatitis. Besides acne and pimples, this is one of the problems faced by Dermatologists. It is a highly pruritic inflammatory skin disease usually caused by genetics, defects in the immune system, and decrease response in mircrobial particles.

Some trigger factors:

Milk, cheese, yogurt, and nuts

Heat, perspiration, and dry environment

Emotional stress

Exposure to high chemicals, cigarette smoke, and dust
