One of the unfortunate things that happens as we age, is that the skin
becomes very vulnerable to different conditions. The most common of
these ailments is dry skin. Even before old age, most people have
experienced dry skin at some point in their life. Even though most
elderly people have dry skin, this is not really due to chronological
aging. The dry skin is due to the effects of the sun over the years.
The dermatology treatment for dry skin is a lotion treatment that
will soften the skin. The moisturizer needs to have water and lipids as
the main ingredients. Different moisturizers help the skin in different
ways. One type of moisturizer will prevent the skin from losing more
water, and the other type will let water into the skin and will then
seal it in.
Besides moisturizer, there are a number of basic skin care tips that
can help dry skin. Do not use very hot water when showering or bathing.
Make sure the water is lukewarm. There are also soaps that are good for
dry skin. Definitely do not use anti-bacterial soaps or liquid soaps.
Use humidifiers in the house, and wear natural, non-irritating clothing.
