Shiny hair, glowing skin, and strong nails are very public signs of a youthful, happy, healthy gal. For both men and women, hormones, environmental factors and personal care routines all impact how skin ages. The practice of Dermatology according to the National Skin Care Institute (NSCI) is the study of diagnosing, treating and preventing skin problems.
To keep your skin healthy and beautiful follow these 5 Dermal-Do’s from experts in Dermatology:
- Drink 2 liters of clear water a day; eat lots of fresh fruits, vegetables and nuts.
- Get plenty of sleep: 7-9 hours to restore oxygen levels in the blood, which is responsible for quick renewal of your body's cells.
- Avoid direct sunlight: use a high spf sunscreen, wear sunglasses and a wide brimmed hat.
- Quit smoking: avoid stress situations that can show up on your face no matter how thoroughly you take care of your skin.
- Women: Never go to bed with make-up on, it can seep into your pores, clogging them. Wash your skin twice at the end of the day – first to take off the make-up and then to wash the skin itself.
When to see a Dermatologist?
Be pro-active! A Dermatologist can teach you how to protect from sun and skin cancer, caution hairstyles that contribute to hair loss, and how to care for nails to prevent common conditions such as nail fungus.
After a routine self-skin exam, schedule an appointment if you notice a change in your skin or your regular regime is no longer effective.
