Often what is seen on people with Ichthyosis Vulgaris is extremely dry skin and the scales on the skin looks like scales on a fish is what is known as Ichthyosis Vulgaris.. Usually this is a genetic condition and it is inherited and what treatment we give is to make the skin look better and to make it more softer feel better and to reduce the itchiness and dryness associated with this condition. The treatment of Ichthyosis Vulgaris is by using a body wash that is pH balanced. Application of a thick moisturizer with ceramides, humectant. Frequent replacement of moisturizer is also required because in Ichthyosis Vulgaris the moisturizer secreted by the skin itself is very low and use of some glycolic acid peels to improve the cosmetic appearance of the skin can be tried. Supersaturation with oral ceramides and Omega 3 fatty acids can make the Ichthyosis. Better. If you feel you have Ichthyosis and you cannot have improvement with these suggestions, please speak to your dermatologist today.
