Taking care of your skin

Your skin is the largest organ in the human body, with so many responsibilities, the skin is by far one of the most important, yet versatile and resilient organs you have. Therefore taking care of it, is as important as taking care of your heart. Dermatology is the section of medicine that involves itself in skin care, we at the Montreal International Clinic take the care of your skin seriously, and we ensure that our patients have the best in technology, staff, and our dermatologists in Dubai.

Your skin is responsible for temperature control. This is an important role it plays in maintaining your bodies other functions. Too hot, and the blood vessels underneath the skin, expand to allow blood to flow freely disposing heat to the air. Too cold, and the blood vessels constrict reducing the surface area, and retaining heat. Additionally, when you shiver, your body is actually trying to create more heat and bring your body temperature to normal. The skin uses hair to trap air, which acts as a layer of insulation. This is why you will at certain times, especially when it is cold, notice goose bumps and your hair standing on edge. You may wonder now, if hair removal is even a good thing? Well in modern times, we use clothe, jerseys and long sleeves to help our bodies keep warm in the winter.

Additionally, the skin is also responsible for telling the brain about the outside conditions. If your skin did not have nerve endings, you wouldn't know when you stood too close to a bonfire or came close to a sharp object.

Additionally, your skin regulated temperature by controlling the amount you sweat. Sweat produced on the skin, brings your body temperature down when evaporating. This is why people sweat more on warm days than cooler ones. Moreover, your skin protects your body from pathogens in the air. Air, and surfaces we touch are filled pathogens and harmful cells, which the skin fights off, before they enter the body. Cuts and bruises are healed fast, bleeding is stopped, and the skin also absorbs its own oxygen from the air, locks in moisture, and synthesizes vitamin E.

With all of these vital functions, your skin requires nothing but the best care. Skin care entails regular care, rehydration, and exfoliation.
