Winter can be extra rough on your skin. Here are a few simple tips from Dr. Moore to help you keep your skin beautiful and hydrated all winter long!

  • Bathe in lukewarm water- avoid extremes in temperature (very hot or very cold).

 

  • Use soap in the “dirty” areas like the hands, underarms and private areas. Be gentle elsewhere.

 

  • Avoid rubbing dry or sensitive skin areas with abrasive items including wash clothes or sponges.

 

  • Pat dry when you are out of the shower (rather than rub vigorously), so some water stays on your skin. Then apply a heavy cream such as Cetaphil or Cerave. This helps hydrate your skin to keep it healthy.

 

  • If your skin has not responded to these DermacenterMD healthy skin tips, give us a call to see one of our skin care specialists. 

If you are experiencing extreme dry skin issues, please give our office a call to set up an appointment.
