Why is Skin Care so Important?

Preventing skin breakdown before it begins is an important concern for anyone experiencing incontinence. The use of a good quality perineal cleansing product can help eliminate the problems that are caused by soap and water. Soap and a washcloth are a fragile and/or damaged skin’s worst enemies. Soap is not recommended because of the dry effect, and soap residue left on the skin can cause irritation and sensitization. High quality perineal care products with moisturizing properties can help prevent skin irritation in sensitive areas before it can begin.
