Skin Care Basics

Some people are genetically predisposed to flawlessly beautiful skin. Unfortunately, the rest of us are not so fortunate. Whether it is acne, oily skin, or overwhelming dryness, the majority of people struggle with some type of skin problem.

Although bathing and moisturizing the entire body is one way to do this, the face tends to need extra consideration. This is because it is the focal point of the body and the first thing people scan upon meeting us. Keeping the face blemish free and glowing speaks of health and can make us look and feel confident.

It is never too late to start on a maintenance system that caters to your skins own individual needs, but first, you must correctly identify what your particular skin ailment is.

Establish your skin type

There are a number of skin care lines, from the expensive to the economical, that can help you care for your skin, but you have to be able to define your problems in that area. For instance, if you are prone to break outs due to oily skin, you will need a product that reduces oil. Likewise, people who suffer from excessive dryness need to find skin care products with moisturizers that nourish and replenish essential oils.

Combination skin, a condition where the face can be both oily and dry, can be the hardest skin problem to combat. There are a number of products that can help; do your homework prior to any purchase to find what will work best for you.

Skin care products

There are plenty of mainstream skin care lines available and Dr Kyle and her staff would be happy to recommend some of them. If you are interested in finding the skin care products we offer, visit our skin care products page

No matter the skin type, most people will need a cleanser, toner, and exfoliant (a cream or lotion that gets rid of dead skin cells). People with acne may use products like on the spot reducers with saylic acid or benzol peroxide in conjunction with these items.

You would start with the cleanser, followed by the exfoliant and moisturizer daily. Some people finish with a SPF based cream to protect the skin from the harsh rays of the sun.

Turning back the clock

If the prevention or minimization of wrinkles is a concern, an anti-aging regimen may be the ticket. There are many skin and beauty items that contain tried and true substances like collagen and elastin that can help rebuild skin and reduce the appearance of fine lines, leading to a more youthful appearance.However, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. If you really want to return the glow of youth to your face, you need to observe your diet, drink water, exercise and reduce sun exposure.

These simple tricks will do more for your skin than slathering on a ton of skin care products.

When to see Dr Kyle and her staff

Sometimes, despite the best care you can possibly give, you may not see real improvement in your skins condition. For example, you may not be able to treat problems like rosacea or hyper pigmentation with ordinary products. Hypersensitivity to certain chemicals and herbs can also be a factor in skin damage or hard to cure problems.

Dr Kyle will be able to assess the damage and causes to provide a diagnosis.

Everyone's skin is different, but with a proper skin regimen, anyone's skin can look and feel its best, at any age.
