Primary factor
Weather and Climate
Hot, dry air and air conditioning can strip moisture from the skin, particularly noticeable on the face, lips and feet.
What is Dry Skin Treatment?
Dry skin treatment refers to in-clinic procedures and daily skincare habits designed to restore moisture and strengthen the skin's natural barrier. Dry skin occurs when the skin lacks sufficient moisture or natural oils, often resulting in tightness, flaking, roughness or visible irritation. It can affect the face, lips and feet differently, and is commonly caused by weather, ageing, over-cleansing or an underlying barrier issue. Whether you're dealing with facial dryness, persistently dry lips, or cracked, dry feet, effective dry skin treatment usually combines professional, barrier-focused treatments with a consistent hydration routine suited to each area, rather than a single generic moisturiser applied everywhere.
What Causes Dry Skin?
Over-Cleansing
Harsh cleansers or over-washing can strip natural oils and weaken the skin barrier.
Ageing
Natural oil production declines with age, making skin more prone to dryness over time.
Dehydration
Inadequate water intake can contribute to overall skin dryness, including dry lips.
Friction and Lack of Care
Feet are especially prone to dryness and cracking due to friction from footwear and infrequent moisturising.
