Hand care

Our hands are exposed to numerous stresses daily - be it through frequent washing, contact with disinfectants or environmental factors such as cold and dryness. Especially in the medical field, the skin on the hands is often heavily stressed, as caregivers and medical staff need to disinfect and wash their hands regularly. Therefore, careful hand care is essential to protect the skin barrier and keep the hands healthy and supple. At Altruan.de you will find a wide selection of high-quality hand care products that are specially developed for these requirements.

Why is hand care so important in the medical field?

In the medical field, hands are extremely strained by constant disinfection and washing, which can lead to dryness, cracks, and skin irritations. These problems not only affect well-being but can also increase the risk of infection. Regular and targeted hand care helps protect and regenerate the skin, keeping it resilient and healthy.

High-quality hand care products for stressed hands

With us, you will find hand care products tailored to the special needs of heavily stressed hands:

• Medical hand creams: These hand creams are specially formulated to provide intensive moisture and strengthen the skin barrier. Ingredients like urea, glycerin, and panthenol help repair and care for dry and cracked skin without leaving greasy residues. The Baktolan® balm skin care balm from Hartmann delivers rich hand care for daily use on dry and sensitive skin.
• Regenerating hand balms: For heavily stressed hands, a hand balm offers intensive care. These products lay a protective layer on the skin, protecting against further damage while promoting regeneration.
• Gentle hand scrubs:  To remove dead skin cells and make the skin more receptive to care products, gentle hand scrubs are ideal. They promote blood circulation and help keep the skin soft and supple.

Sustainable and skin-friendly ingredients

Many hand care products use natural and sustainable ingredients that are gentle on the skin. Aloe Vera, shea butter, and coconut oil provide intensive care for the skin and help avoid irritation. Additionally, these creams are often free from parabens, silicones, and artificial fragrances, making them particularly suitable for sensitive skin in the medical field.

Tips for hand care in the medical everyday

• Regular moisturizing: After each hand wash or disinfection you should apply a moisturizing hand cream to protect the skin from drying out.
• Protection with gloves: Wear, if possible, disposable gloves, to protect the skin from excessive stress due to disinfectants and water.
• Care in leisure time: Pamper your hands in your free time with an intensive care treatment, like a hand mask or a rich balm, to deeply regenerate the skin.
