Get Dazzling Skin for the Holidays
The holidays are a wonderful time of being with loved ones, gift giving and enjoying festive annual traditions. Did you know they can also wreak havoc on your skin? All the shopping, cooking and celebrating also means you are probably getting too little sleep, eating on the run and feeling a bit more stress than usual. Also, the cooler temperatures and chilly winds play a negative role in your skin’s health.
It shows up with dark circles, puffy, swollen eyes and pimples and blemishes at the most inopportune times. These seasonal skin problems can be avoided by taking certain precautions and caring for your skin the right way.
Preventative care is very important this time of year. Here at Knoxville Dermatology Group, we are always happy to help you establish a specially tailored skincare regimen that meets the needs of your unique skin. If you haven’t seen a dermatologist in a while, this might be a great time to make an appointment.
Sometimes skin stress appears during the holiday months from a lack of moisture. This can be especially problematic if you live in a cold climate or are exposed to prolonged periods with indoor heating. Drinking alcohol can also play a role in drying out your skin.
We can help you select the right moisturizer that will help keep your skin from getting too dry. On the other side of the coin are breakouts. Stress induced by the holidays causes a surge in testosterone, which causes skin to break out. There are methods and products that can help with these types of issues as well.
Whatever your skin type and whatever issues you might be facing, give us a call. We’d love to help you on the road to better skin health, during the holidays and for the entire year.
Are you experiencing signs of holiday skin? Whether during the holidays or anytime throughout the year, skin health should be taken seriously.
