Dry skin
Dry skin, also known as dehydrated skin, is a condition in which the skin loses its natural moisture and elasticity. The skin becomes rough and prone to flaking, which is a common problem that affects people of all ages. It can be the result of many factors, both external and internal.
Description of the problem
The causes of dry skin can be diverse and include: genetic factors, hormonal changes, skin aging, improper skin care, improper diet or exposure to harmful environmental factors such as excessive exposure to sun, wind or dry air, frequent bathing in hot water, use of irritating detergents.
Symptoms of dry skin include a feeling of tightness, itching, flaking skin, visible cracks, roughness and dullness of the skin, as well as susceptibility to irritation and skin infections. Dry skin can be especially troublesome in the winter, when it is exposed to low humidity and frequent changes in temperature.
Treatment
Effective care for dry skin requires regular moisturization and protection. Using the right skin care products that help restore and maintain the skin’s natural protective barrier is essential. It is important to use gentle cleansers that do not disturb the skin’s natural balance, avoid hot water when bathing, and use moisturizing creams and lotions that help retain moisture in the skin.
Additionally, it is worth taking care of a proper diet rich in vitamins and minerals that support skin health and regular water consumption. You should also avoid irritants and environmental factors that can irritate the skin and increase its dryness.
