Tampa dermatologist Dr. Seth Forman continues to conduct a clinical trial for eczema and is seeking new patients to participate in what may be a one-of-a-kind, breakthrough treatment that will alleviate symptoms for those who suffer from the skin condition.

In an effort to provide an effective solution for patients, the Tampa dermatologist is administering the treatment in hopes that participants will see a noticeable improvement of their skin by the end of the trial.

I would encourage anyone who suffers from eczema to take advantage of this opportunity, says Dr. Forman. The goal of this treatment is to provide patients with positive, long-term results that will relieve irritation and itchiness and improve the appearance of their skin.

Also known as atopic dermatitis, eczema is a skin condition characterized by irritated skin due to the release of inflammatory chemicals in the body. Common symptoms include a combination of itchy, dry and red patchy skin on areas of the body including the face, hands and neck.

Patients enrolled in the trial will receive subcutaneous (injected under the skin) medication at no cost, as well as free lab tests and exams by the Tampa dermatologist and his office. In addition, volunteers will be compensated for their participation in the research study.

Everyone should have the opportunity to feel comfortable and confident in their own skin, says Dr. Forman. My hope is that this trial will simplify the lives of those affected by atopic dermatitis.

Dr. Forman is the founder of Forman Dermatology and Skin institute, located in Tampa, Fla. and has appeared on TV shows across the country, including the nationally syndicated show The Doctors to provide sun-protection tips and to demonstrate his breakthrough skin cancer treatments.
