Overcorrection occurs when intensity exceeds need.
In hygiene, this may involve repeated sanitizing without new exposure or frequent disinfecting of low-risk surfaces.
Over time, overcorrection can:
• Compromise skin barrier function
• Increase dryness and irritation
• Encourage unnecessary chemical exposure
• Reduce material longevity
Protection without overcorrection focuses on:
• Longevity
• Compatibility
• Reduced reapplication
• Targeted intervention
When protection lasts longer, frequency decreases naturally.
Less disruption creates more stability.
