/p>As we get older, the skin becomes much more sensitive and dry, and it is difficult for it to heal. The protective barrier weakens from the age of 65-70 as the skin cells shrink and become more fragile, reproducing less and more slowly. Aware of this, the firm Hartman has developed the range specialized in the care of mature skin: MoliCare Skinformerly known as Menalind, which covers the three phases of dermatological care: cleaning, protection and hydrationespecially for people with incontinence.
In addition, in the case of older people, their bodies no longer adequately process the food nutrients so necessary to rebuild and maintain the dermatological quality. That’s why, mature skins need special care, with an important contribution of nutrients. And even more so in the case of people with incontinence, since urine leakage sensitizes intimate areasalready fragile in itself.
As warned Florine Philipperesponsible for the Hartmann incontinence area, “andcontinual skin contact with leaks generates redness, irritation and even more serious erythema. That is why it is so important that older people incorporate skin care into their daily habits, keeping affected areas clean and dry at all times.”
Aware of the importance that elderly people take care of their skin on a daily basis, Hartmann has developed the range MoliCare Skinwhich has handcream and body lotion with essential fatty acids, amino acids, creatine and almond oil, which ensures good hydration and cell nutrition.
In addition, the wet wipes of this range are perfect for people who suffer from urine losses, however small they may be, to keep their skin clean throughout the day, since they do not contain alcohol (it would irritate the skin) and because they provide gentle and restorative ingredients destinated to restore the skin’s natural pH 5.5.
And when the degree of dirt is greateras when urine and feces losses come together, a solution is the cleaning foam MoliCare Skinthat neutralizes odors and has a descaling effect. In addition, its contribution of creatine reinforces the natural mechanism of the skin, and does not need water Neither when applying nor during rinsing.
The range is completed with liquid soap, shampoo, spray oil (with panthenol and almond oil that create a protective film that Moisturizes and nourishes the skin) and protective creamspecially formulated for reinforce the protective barrier so that urine does not come into direct contact with the skin or pass through its pores, reducing the risk of irritation and if it occurs, the zinc oxide it contains helps to heal.
