Children's Eczema & Atopic Dermatitis Treatment

Dr. Shpadaruk offers a comprehensive pediatric dermatology care plan that includes identifying triggers, recommending gentle skincare routines, prescribing topical anti-inflammatories when needed, and guiding parents through flare-up prevention.

Birthmarks & Vascular Lesions
Whether it’s a port-wine stain, hemangioma, or another vascular birthmark, Dr. Volha Shpadaruk evaluates each case thoroughly to determine the need for treatment.
Some lesions require only monitoring, while others may benefit from topical treatments, laser therapy referrals, or imaging if deeper vessels are involved.
Skin Infections (Bacterial, Viral, Fungal)
Children are especially prone to skin infections such as impetigo, warts, molluscum contagiosum, and ringworm.
Dr. Shpadaruk offers accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment — from topical antibiotics and antifungals to cryotherapy for viral warts — all in a child-friendly environment.
Urticaria and Allergic Skin Reactions
For sudden rashes, hives, or suspected allergic responses, Dr. Shpadaruk evaluates possible causes and offers treatment to relieve itching and swelling.
In cases of chronic urticaria, she may recommend allergy testing or further immunological evaluation to identify underlying causes.
Children's Hair and Scalp Disorders
From patchy hair loss (alopecia areata) to cradle cap and fungal infections of the scalp (tinea capitis), Dr. Volha Shpadaruk performs careful clinical evaluation and dermoscopy.
When needed, she may recommend a scalp biopsy to identify inflammatory or autoimmune causes — especially in scarring conditions — ensuring the correct diagnosis is reached.
Nail Disorders in Children
Peeling, ridging, discolouration, or thickened nails can be signs of underlying skin or systemic issues.
Dr. Volha offers both clinical evaluation and dermatoscopic assessment of nail changes, and treats common problems like fungal infections, psoriasis-related nail changes, or habit-tic deformities.
Skin Biopsy and Diagnostic Tools
In complex or unclear cases, a skin biopsy may be recommended to confirm diagnosis.
Dr. Shpadaruk performs these procedures with minimal discomfort and in a child-sensitive manner. This allows for accurate identification of chronic rashes, scarring alopecia, or suspected autoimmune skin diseases.

Dr Volha’s Kids Dermatology by Age Groups
Pediatric skin concerns vary significantly depending on a child’s age, as the skin develops and changes throughout infancy, childhood, and adolescence. Dr. Volha’s pediatric dermatology approach is tailored to each stage, ensuring accurate diagnosis, gentle treatment, and age-appropriate care for both common and complex skin conditions.
Pediatric Dermatology for Newborns (0–12 months)
At this stage, the skin is extremely delicate and still adapting to the external environment.
Common concerns include newborn acne, cradle cap (seborrheic dermatitis), eczema, diaper rash, and birthmarks.
Care is focused on gentle management, skin barrier protection, and reassurance for parents, with minimal intervention unless medically necessary.
Pediatric Dermatology for Toddlers (1–4 years)
As children become more active, skin issues such as atopic dermatitis (eczema), viral rashes, infections, and allergic reactions are more common.
Treatment at this stage focuses on controlling inflammation, managing itch, preventing infection from scratching, and educating parents on daily skincare routines.
Pediatric Dermatology for Children (5–10 years)
In this age group, conditions like eczema, warts, fungal infections, and pigmentation changes may appear.
Children may also develop sensitivities or allergic skin reactions.
Management often combines medical treatment with preventive care, helping children maintain healthy skin while minimizing flare-ups and discomfort.
Pediatric Dermatology for Pre-Adolescents & Teenagers (11–17 years)
Hormonal changes during puberty often lead to acne, oily skin, body odour-related skin issues, and sometimes early signs of hair or scalp conditions.
Treatment becomes more targeted, focusing on acne control, scar prevention, pigmentation management, and restoring skin balance while also supporting confidence during a sensitive stage of development.
