Allergic Contact

Contact-allergic reactions to cosmetics may be delayed-type reactions such as allergic and photo-allergic contact dermatitis, and more exceptionally also immediate-type reactions, that is, contact urticaria. Fragrances and preservative agents are the most important contact allergens, but reactions also occur to category-specific products such as hair dyes and other hair-care products, nail cosmetics, sunscreens, as well as to antioxidants, vehicles, emulsifiers, and, in fact, any possible cosmetic ingredient. Patch and prick testing to detect the respective culprits remains the golden standard for diagnosis, although additional tests might be useful as well. Once the specific allergens are identified, the patients should be informed of which products can be safely used in the future.

Insight Into

Contact allergy (sensibilization, hypersensitivity) is a state of specific immune response in the skin occurring after repeated contact of the skin or mucous membrane with various environmental substances. At the Allergy Department of the Clinic of Dermatovenereology Diseases in Novi Sad, we patch tested the patients who were referred with a suspected contact allergy and who had been also coming for check-ups as outpatients over the last two years. Contact allergy was assessed in respect to the fact that not only allergic contact dermatitis, but also the whole spectrum of different clinical entities where allergic contact dermatitis and contact urticaria are only the two extremes, should be included. Our results provide further insight into etiology and pathogenesis of contact allergy, offering a better diagnostic and therapeutic approach to patients and opening new horizons to further researches.
