Elderly Skin Care


As we becomes mature with aging, our skin age with the years of sun exposure, wrong eating habits, lack of skin care, use of harmful chemicals etc.  Elderly skin can be very dry and becomes very thin, with the structures in the dermis clearly visible. The skin becomes more fragile and prone to injuries, with the lack of protection from the dermis, the small blood vessels become vulnerable to breakage and bursting.

At this age, the regular care of the skin is especially important, including the use of mild cleansers. Good-quality day and nigh moisturizers will help to combat the decline in mature skin’s barrier function. Try to protect the skin from sun exposure.

It is however best to avoid long scalding soaks, as well as harsh soaps and bath foams if the skin is sensitive as this combination disrupts its barrier function
