JournalEnglishIntroduction: Basic therapy is of central importance in the treatment ofatopic eczema. Using electron microscopic images, the morphology ofepidermal skin barrier and its lipids was investigated after applicationof a lipid foam cream and basic cream. Methods: Patients with twocontralateral comparable atopic eczema (local SCORAD 1 10) on theforearms were tested. Eczema was treated with a lipid foam cream or basic
cream twice daily for 28 days. At the beginning, after 14 days, and at
the end of application, the local SCORAD, trans-epidermal water loss(TEWL), skin hydration, intercellular lipid length in the intercellularspace of the stratum corneum (SC), and skin lipids were determined.
Results: After application of the foam cream, the epidermal skin barrier
could be completely restored and corresponded to healthy skin, while theepidermal skin barrier could not reach this state after care with thebasic cream. The content of lipids in the SC increases significantly by
31% after basic cream treatment, whereas they are significantly increased
by 85% after application of the lipid foam cream. The local SCORADimproved for both treatments to about the same extent, and no significant
results could be shown for TEWL and skin hydration. Conclusion: Insubjects with mild atopic eczema, the lipid foam cream leads to ameasurable recovery of the skin barrier which is much more pronounced incomparison to the basic cream.
