Skin types vary from person to person, they can range from oily skin, dry skin or combination skin. There are also certain skin diseases that affect the hydration status of our skin. A dehydrated skin loses its radiance, looks dull with more obvious fine lines, and can be flaky and scaly in severe cases. Some people experience itchiness and discomfort with dry skin, leading to scratching which further exacerbates the condition. 

Treating dehydrated skin starts with simple lifestyle changes like consuming ample amounts of water. By having a proper regulation of water intake and output, you can ensure that your skin is receiving the right amount of nourishment. Nevertheless, there are certain conditions where simply drinking water will not be sufficient for our skin to absorb all the water it needs, and that is when you should opt for a more focused and individualized treatment from a healthcare professional. By analyzing the causes of dehydrated skin, specific medical grade creams, masks, facial treatment and skin boosters can be given to return the skin back to its normal condition.
