Sensitive skin is not limited to the face

Abstract: The proportion of subjects presenting with sensitive skin is probably overestimated. However, the main result of this study is that sensitive skin is not restricted to the face but rather it is also present at other localizations, mainly the hands, and often the scalp and feet.

“…Our laboratory and others have determined that cutaneous SCC can be initiated by induction of constitutively active K-ras and loss of p53 specifically in hair follicle stem cells (3,4). Here, we studied the role of HMGA2 in epithelial-tomesenchymal transition (EMT), tumor initiation and progression using both molecular genetics and chemical carcinogenic tumor models.…”

“…Sensitive skin (SS) is a poorly understood condition, in which subjects report sensations of the skin, particularly characterized by stinging, burning or itching in response-eliciting factors of different nature (1)(2)(3). Visible signs of irritation are absent in some individuals with SS.…”

“…A clinical model for fragile skin 37,[53][54][55][56][57][58][59][60][61][62][63][64][65][66][67][68][69]. We calculated a SDS stress reaction ratio in each volonteer (i.e [TEWL SDS SKIN treated -TEWL SDS non treated skin] / TEWL SDS non treated skin) and hypothesized that a TEWL ratio above 1.3 (either 30% increase) is indicative of "fragile skin".…”

“…It is defined as patient report of prickling, burning or tingling sensation, due to physical, chemical, psychological, or hormonal factors, which may not include clinical signs or objective skin health measures expected in inflammatory or allergic reactions [1]. Sensitive skin has been reported throughout the body [2], and its pathophysiology is poorly understood [3][4][5][6]. Despite methodological differences (questionnaires used, anatomical sites investigated), epidemiological studies across industrialized world, including United States, United Kingdom, and France show the general population majority report sensitive skin, with higher prevalence in women vs. men [7].…”
