DRYNESS & DEHYDRATION
Dehydration is a common sign of a skin barrier impairment. When your skin barrier is performing optimally, your skin will retain the correct amount of water. Where the barrier is impaired, your skin loses moisture leaving it dry, rough and sometimes flaky.
Our expert advice and extensive range of professional-grade skincare and advanced treatments available at our clinics, ensures you have the support to enjoy happy, healthy skin all year round.
What causes Fine Lines & Wrinkles?
Dry skin is a skin type like oily, combination or sensitive. It can result from hormones, genetics or even ageing. Basically it just means that your skin doesn’t produce enough oil. Overuse of skin treatments that strip the skin of natural oils, such as high concentrations of retinol or aggressive exfoliation can also contribute to dryness.
Rather than lacking oil, dehydrated skin lacks water – which is vital for juicy, plump skin. This can occur for several reasons; seasonal changes, spending a little too long in the sun, hot showers or harsh products.
Prevention and care.
You can look after dry skin by incorporating oil-rich skincare into your routine, and avoiding anything too harsh or stripping. While dry skin wants oil, dehydrated skin wants water. You’ll also want to incorporate ingredients into your skin regime like hyaluronic acid – to provide that vital hydration back into the skin.
Professional treatments are excellent for boosting collagen and strengthening the skin’s barrier, crucial for maintaining hydration in the skin.

Supplements like Krill Oil, collagen blends, and ceramides can also enhance your skin’s hydration levels and overall appearance
How to know if my skin is dehydrated or dry?
If your skin feels rough, appears flaky, or is prone to redness, it’s likely dry. If it lacks radiance, shows signs of premature ageing like fine lines, or feels tight even when adequately moisturized, it may be dehydrated. A skin professional can provide a thorough analysis and help you determine the specific needs of your skin.
Can all skin types be dehydrated?
Dehydrated skin is a skin condition that occurs when there’s a lack of water in the skin. This can happen to anyone, regardless of skin type — people with oily or combination skin can still experience dehydration.
