Dry Skin Treatments
How does a chemical peel help dry skin?
A chemical peel removes the upper layer or layers of skin, to let fresh, new skin come to the surface. As it exfoliates the old, dry, dead skin from the surface, the chemical peel also promotes collagen production for better skin tone and texture. Matched with supplemental serums during the peel and the right medical-grade skincare products for aftercare, your chemical peel can rejuvenate skin on your face, neck, and hands with excellent results.
What makes my dry skin worse?
When you have dry skin, doing nothing for it is the number one way to make it worse. Rough, itchy, flaky, or scaly dry skin is also worsened by:
- Heat sources. Central heat, space heaters, fireplaces, and anything that dries the air.
- Environment. Cold, dry winters and low-humidity climates.
- Harsh cleansers. A large number of over-the-counter soaps and shampoos dry out the skin.
- Certain skin issues. Eczema, psoriasis, etc.
- Medical treatments. Some medical treatments and therapies cause dry skin.
- Natural aging. Skin becomes thinner, loses collagen and fat deposits, and produces less supportive oils.
What are other measures to support my dry skin treatment at Younique?
To help support your positive results for dry skin treatment and therapy at Younique, you should:
- Stay hydrated! Drink enough water every day. It’s good for you, period.
- Add moisture to the air. A humidifier can be your friend.
- Continue using medical-grade skincare products.
- Have damp skin when using water-based moisturizers, such as after a shower or bath.
- Shorten shower time. Long, hot showers dry out the skin more.
- Don’t use scrub brushes and bath sponges. They exfoliate, but they also remove beneficial oils.
- Dry by blotting with a towel, not rubbing.
