In this two part lecture series, you will learn about skin conditions seen in children and adults with Down syndrome. The skin is our biggest organ and certainly the most visible, so there will be a lot to discuss! We will start with more common skin conditions such as dry skin and lips, folliculitis, hidradenitis suppurativa, alopecia areata, and infections such as athlete’s foot and onychomycosis. We will also discuss less common but important skin conditions to know about including syringomas and elastosis perforans serpiginosa. These interactive lectures will be visual with LOTS of pictures. During our time together, we will focus on practical tips on how to take care of these skin conditions and what skin problems to look for during different phases of life.
