Taking Care of your Skin

When it comes to looking after your skin, there are so many myths and truths out there, which makes it hard for just about anyone. Finding your way through the millions of ads, celebrity advice and need to have perfect skin, can leave your skin in shambles and you completely frustrated.

Whether you have acne, dry and wrinkled skin, fine lines, eye bags, or would just like to obtain renewed skin we have the best skin care experts in Dubai to help you with your concerns.

Your skin is by far the most complex and difficult organ in your body to manage. Many of us are struck with acne scars, bruises that leave a dark patch, wrinkles, bites that seem to itch all the time, and gravity weighs it down too. Sun, heat, sweat and dust in the air along with makeup, creams, and chemicals, it’s no wonder our skin struggles to stay healthy.

The sun dries and darkens it, and no amount of SPF can actually do your skin any more good than it does bad. Although wearing sun screen is important, wearing a thick layer of sun screen all day long when you are barely in the sun for than a few minutes, will do more damage than good for your skin. How so? Most of us wear sun screen when going out for anything, and many of the times, we are shaded in the car, or mostly remain indoors. Wearing thick cream during a hot day clogs the pores. Pores allow your skin to release toxins, sweat, water, and cell waste. By sealing the pores with creams and lotions that are heavy on the skin, you are literally doing more harm than good. Sun screen should be left for days when you are going to be out on the beach or away from shade for many hours, not just a few minutes.

Another skin problem that millions faces around the world is dry skin. But what we haven’t been told by the millions of marketing campaigns that sell moisturizers is that there are two types of dry skin conditions, one of which you can’t treat with moisturizer. If your skin is not producing enough oil to keep your skin moistened and supple, then you will need to add artificial moisturizer to keep it smooth. But this problem affects fewer people than the majority of people who have dehydrated skin. This is when your skin is flaky and falls off. To treat dehydrated skin, you actually need to exfoliate regularly. Exfoliation removes the dead skin cells on the top, and lets your new skin absorb moisture, i.e. water from the air. Using creams stops this process, and your skin will always be dehydrated.

Taking care of your skin is quite simple, because in actual fact you just need to let it take care of itself. Helping your skin once in a while, by removing dead skin cells through skin care treatments, using the right products, and eating healthy can give you youthful skin well in to your 60’s.

The skin care unit at Montreal International Clinic is staffed by medical doctors and qualified aestheticians who use tried and tested methods to rejuvenate and renew skin. Talk to our dermatologists for professional advice on skin care.
