Dry and Dehydrated Skin
Short Summary
Dry and dehydrated skin occurs when the skin lacks sufficient moisture, oils, or both to maintain a healthy barrier. This can make the complexion appear dull, tight, or flaky and increase sensitivity or fine lines.
While dry skin is often a skin type linked to low oil production, dehydrated skin is a temporary condition caused by a lack of water in the deeper layers. Factors such as weather, central heating, harsh skincare, and lifestyle habits can all contribute to this imbalance.
What treatments are available?
Dr Sultan offers a range of advanced treatments designed to deeply hydrate, repair, and strengthen the skin barrier. Our approach focuses on replenishing lost moisture, stimulating collagen and elastin, and improving overall skin health for long-lasting radiance.
Profhilo is one of our most popular options for dehydrated skin, delivering pure hyaluronic acid to boost hydration, elasticity, and firmness from within.
For clients experiencing more advanced dryness or compromised skin, Polynucleotides help repair the skin at a cellular level while improving texture and resilience.
For surface hydration and gentle rejuvenation, our HydraFacial treatments deeply cleanse, infuse active ingredients, and lock in moisture, leaving the skin soft, smooth, and refreshed.
Dr Sultan provides a personalised skincare consultation to ensure your skin gets the right products from the plethora on the market.
What Causes Dry and Dehydrated Skin
Dry and dehydrated skin can develop from both internal and external factors that affect the skin’s ability to retain moisture. Dry skin occurs when the sebaceous glands produce less natural oil, leaving the skin barrier unprotected and more prone to flaking and irritation. Dehydrated skin, on the other hand, lacks water within its deeper layers, often caused by environmental exposure, weather changes, central heating, or insufficient hydration.
Lifestyle habits such as over-exfoliation, harsh skincare products, stress, and poor diet can also contribute to dryness and dullness, while ageing naturally reduces hyaluronic acid and collagen levels, further weakening the skin’s ability to hold moisture.
