Eczema Treatment in Sydney
Eczema (atopic dermatitis) is a common inflammatory skin condition that causes dry, itchy and inflamed skin. While there is no single cure, it can be managed effectively with the right care. Dr Burcu Kim treats eczema in Sydney CBD and North Sydney.
Eczema often flares and settles over time. Common triggers include:
- Irritants such as soaps and detergents
- Allergens such as dust and pollen
- Heat and sweating
- Stress
- Changes in weather
Persistent scratching can damage the skin barrier and increase the risk of infection, so good control of itch and inflammation is important. Dr Kim takes the time to understand your triggers and tailor a management plan, which may include:
- Moisturisers and emollients to repair the skin barrier
- Topical anti-inflammatory treatments
- Advanced treatment options for moderate to severe eczema
With the right plan, most people can achieve significant relief from the itch and discomfort of eczema. Book an eczema consultation in Sydney CBD or North Sydney.
Dr Burcu Kim sees eczema patients at her main rooms in BMA House, Suite 904, Level 9, 135-137 Macquarie Street, Sydney CBD - in the Macquarie Street medical precinct - as well as by telehealth video consultation across Australia. Rebates apply with a valid Medicare referral from your GP.
