Abstract

Background: The skin microbiome protects against pathogens and supports immunity. Dysbiosis can cause skin conditions; La Roche-Posay Thermal Spring Water, rich in prebiotics, help restore balance and reduce inflammation. This study evaluated the effectiveness, patient satisfaction, and cosmetic effects of a multipurpose healing cream with microbiome effect in inflammatory skin conditions. Methods: We conducted an observational survey of 212 Egyptian patients using dermocosmetic (DC) multipurpose healing cream as part of their standard care Assessments occurred at initial and follow-up visits from 2-4 weeks. Data on clinical signs, symptoms, effectiveness, cosmetic features, and satisfaction were collected via expert-validated surveys. Statistical analysis was conducted using SPSS version 27. We performed descriptive and comparative analyses using different tests depending on the variable characteristics. Results: Participants (median age 28; 84.9% female) primarily had skin phototypes II to VI, with phototype III being most common (48.6%). Lesions were mostly 3-10 cm (46.2%) or larger than 10 cm (40.6%), primarily on the face (55.7%). Significant improvement was noted in erythema, desquamation, pigmentation, cracks, and edema (P-value = 0.0001). Symptoms like tightness, pain, burning, and tingling significantly improved. Additionally, 97.6% of patients reported satisfaction with the cream's soothing effects, and it was favorably rated for texture, application ease, and suitability across skin types. Conclusions: The DC multipurpose healing cream significantly improves clinical presentation, and cosmetic satisfaction in individuals with various skin conditions. Further research is recommended to validate these results and explore the effectiveness in combination with other treatments.
