Cleaning the Skin

Avoid skin cleansers that contain perfumes and alcohol as they have a drying eect. Soap can also dry the skin and should always be avoided. Water is a good solution for the skin; When a cleanser is required, use MEDI DERMA PRO Foam & Spray Incontinence Cleanser (see below). If using baby wipes, ensure they don’t contain perfumes and alcohol. These cleansers can break down the acid mantle and cause stinging if the skin is broken. Ensure all visible matter is gently removed from the skin’s surface. Dry carefully to avoid damaging the top layers of the skin and pat dry rather than rubbing the skin. The skin can also be left to air dry. Nappy-free time allows the skin to recover and is comfortable for your child.
