About this trial

This exploratory study aims to investigate the prebiotic potential of daily application of an omega-3 serum and cream to skin affected by eczema. The study will also collect data on any potential adverse effects of the products. Ten subjects will be enrolled in the study and will receive the same treatment for fourteen days. Their baseline condition before treatment will serve as a control for the effects observed after treatment on the targeted eczema area. A second area of eczema treated with the patient's usual skincare routine will also serve as a control.
