Asked by Karishma on 26/10/2023 15:36 PM

We all suffer from dull skin sometime in our lives. Most commonly it occurs due to inadequate skincare, excess sun exposure, aging or some health issues which can affect the quality of skin as well. If you notice dull skin, try to locate a cause like a recent health issue, rapid weight fluctuations, regular use of heavy makeup or even stress leading to improper sleep regimen. The first thing to do is choose a consistent skincare regimen with regular use of a medical grade sunscreen, cleanser and moisturizer, to which products like vitamin C, glycolic acid etc can be added as active ingredients. Take a balanced diet rich in antioxidants, fruits and vegetables and hydrate well as dry skin often poses as dull skin. You can visit your dermatologist to enquire about tretaments such as chemical peels with glycolic acid, lactic acid etc which can exfoliate and rejuvenate the skin. Medifacials which use customized medical grade products and masks to give you an instant lift in skin texture is a popular choice. IPL treatment, laser toning and other light based treatment can also help. In case of dry skin, skin booster therapies like injectable hyaluronic acid can be done to restore hydration and texture to the skin. Your regimen should be customized by your dermatologist depending on your specific skin issue. Regular maintenance may be required.
