Skip the Short Autumn! Let’s Learn About Winter Skin Care!

Winter, when the temperature difference between indoors and outdoors is large and the air is dry as well

It may be a little early, but I saw five people wearing padded jackets on my way to work today!

As climate change is making autumn shorter,

Today, let’s take a look at winter skin care!

Winter, the season when skin care is difficult! Why is that?

Why winter skin care is difficult

The main reasons skin care becomes difficult in winter are extreme dryness and rapid changes between indoor and outdoor environments. These environmental factors damage the skin barrier and can lead to various skin problems.

Because this is the season when you experience the temperature difference firsthand—warming up indoors with heaters and then facing the cold, dry air outside—it can be difficult by nature.

Dryness is also something that cannot be ignored. Korea’s autumn and winter are especially dry, which can cause many related problems.

Because of these combined factors, not only dryness but also existing skin conditions such as atopic dermatitis, psoriasis, and seborrheic dermatitis are more likely to worsen in winter, and it is recommended to focus on strengthening moisture retention and protecting the skin barrier!

Self skin care methods for winter

Moisturizing care! Lock moisture into the skin! Choose a moisturizing cream with an oily feel, and apply enough moisturizer within 3 to 5 minutes after washing your face or showering, before the skin is completely dry, to help trap moisture.

Cleansing and bathing habits: reduce irritation Hot water can excessively wash away the skin’s natural oils. It is best to use lukewarm water as much as possible and keep shower time short, within 10 to 15 minutes.

Lifestyle and environment care: humidity and hydration It is also good to maintain appropriate indoor humidity, and it is best to avoid excessive heating. Drinking enough water is also important.

And, as the Forena Clinic blog always says, sun protection! You need to pay attention to UV rays even in winter and even indoors!

Dermatology procedures for winter?

Strengthening moisture retention and skin regeneration (skin boosters or skin regeneration-related)

There are procedures related to internal dryness, such as Rejuran Healer, water glow injection, exosomes, and Juvelook. Usually, procedures that directly or indirectly improve damage to the skin barrier are recommended.

They also affect skin elasticity, so procedures related to improving firmness and lifting are recommended as well! For example, procedures such as Thermage and Ultherapy are consistently mentioned regardless of the season, but because they address skin aging that accelerates in winter, they are also mentioned as winter procedures.

Lastly, there is also treatment for redness and blood vessels, which serves both cosmetic and therapeutic purposes. Excel V is a representative example. Cold outdoor winds and dry, hot indoor heating worsen facial redness, so treatment-oriented procedures for this are also mentioned. Please prepare early for winter skin care in advance,

and I hope you have a winter full of moisture!
