Understanding Pediatric Genetic Skin Conditions

Genetic skin conditions occur due to inherited changes in genes that affect the structure or function of the skin. These conditions may appear at birth or develop during early childhood. Some are mild and manageable, while others can impact the child’s comfort, appearance, or quality of life.

Early diagnosis and specialized care are essential for managing symptoms, preventing complications, and improving overall well-being. At DRHC, our pediatric dermatologists collaborate with genetic specialists and pediatricians to ensure accurate diagnosis and long-term management.

Common Genetic Skin Disorders We Treat

• Ichthyosis: A group of disorders causing dry, scaly skin that requires regular moisturization and medical management.
• Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB): A fragile skin condition that leads to easy blistering and requires specialized wound care.
• Albinism: A genetic condition causing a lack of skin pigment, often associated with vision and sun sensitivity issues.
• Neurofibromatosis: Characterized by pigmented birthmarks and growth of benign tumors on nerves.
