Diagnosis – Dry Skin!
Diagnosis – Dry Skin.
The problem of dry skin affects an extraordinarily high number of people. It often appears at a certain age and follows a varying course with periods of more or less acute symptoms, but remains a dominating feature of the skin. Dry skin is generally bright and thin, is usually reddened due to the visibility of blood vessels, and is nearly always matt with closed, invisible pores. It has no shine and its surface is marked with mild flaking and fine cracks. Tangible and subjective features of dry skin include roughness, reduced flexibility, brittleness, tightness, burning, numbness, and occasional itchiness. Such skin lacks softness and quickly begins to show wrinkles, which form into a web of tiny lines on the face as the years go by. For people with normal skin, the first symptoms of permanent dryness usually appear around the age of thirty or even as early as twenty. It thus comes as no surprise that the vast majority of skin care cosmetics are designed for use with dry skin, and that the issue of maintaining proper moisture levels in the epidermis is one of the leading subject of research conducted at cosmetic laboratories.
Saving young skin.
Dry skin does not usually require pharmacological treatment (with the exception of symptoms of inflammation). However, proper skin care is very important, as it not only allows us to keep our skin in proper condition, but to prevent dry skin from becoming sensitive skin. When choosing cosmetics for washing and hydrating skin, make sure to pick ones that are especially mild, will not cause irritation, and will not damage the skin
