LONDON, September 22, 2010 - Following five years of research and development, Dreamskin Health Ltd is
proud to have launched the world's first range of hydrating, medical-grade
silk garments designed to relieve the itching and irritation of eczema and
dermatitis.

The secret to the new garments is a proprietary biomimetic copolymer
matrix which is firmly bound to the surface of the silk and assists the water
and temperature regulation functions of the skin. "The Dreamskin(R) polymer
is a major benefit for patients", said Technical Director, Howard Cairns. "We
were inspired by looking at how the hydration of modern contact lenses is
achieved and realised we could use our fabric engineering knowledge to
produce a similar effect in fabric."

Dreamskin(R) garments are currently available in bodysuits for babies and
face masks, tops, leggings and pyjamas for children up to 12 years old and
are designed with wearer comfort as the top consideration. Seams are kept
away from identified irritation areas - underarm, inside elbow and knee,
finger and toe webbing; flat seam technology is used in all garments to
ensure minimal irritation.

"We have combined our new polymer technology with 20 years experience of
garment manufacturing expertise to produce comfortable, discreet garments for
patients", commented founder, George Costa. "We ensure all aspects of our
products are the best they can be."

Dreamskin(R) garments offer the following benefits:

    - Improve skin hydration and moisture regulation
    - Aid reduction of skin itching and irritation
    - Assist with regulation and maintenance of body temperature
    - Support the recovery of normal skin function
    - Decrease contact between skin and irritants such as washing powder
      residue

Early patient feedback has been extremely positive - improved
sleep, reduced scratching and a marked improvement in the condition of the
skin.

Tony Wilson, CEO of Dreamskin Health Ltd, said: "We are extremely excited
about the patient feedback we have been receiving. In 20 years of working in
dermatology, I have never received so many letters of thanks from patients
and their parents in such a short period of time. We are looking forward to
being able to help many more eczema sufferers in future."
