Main Causes Of Atopic Dermatitis
Atopic dermatitis develops from a combination of genetic, environmental, and immune system factors. Individuals with a family history of eczema, asthma, or allergies are more likely to experience the condition. A weakened skin barrier also plays a major role, allowing moisture to escape and irritants or allergens to penetrate more easily. Environmental triggers such as harsh soaps, weather changes, stress, or certain fabrics can further aggravate symptoms. Understanding these underlying causes helps our team at Everoak Dermatology in Celina, TX, create personalized treatment plans that target both flare-ups and long-term skin health.
