Ichthyosis

Close-up of a person's legs with flaky skin on a white background

Ichthyosis is a group of genetic skin disorders characterized by dry, thickened, and scaly skin that results from abnormal skin cell turnover. Because the condition affects the skin's structure and function, it can also impair the body's ability to sweat and regulate temperature effectively.

Heat Related Issues with Ichthyosis

"This is a true lifesaver for my daughter, she has a skin condition called Ichthyosis that prevents her from sweating and regulating her body temperature. With this [Cool Kids® Toddler Cooling Vest] she is able to attend recess and PE with her friends at school and participate in other outdoor activities. The ice packs stay cool for a long time in 80-degree weather, we haven't tested it out in very hot weather yet."- Cynthia P. in Texas
