Below are several tips from our providers regarding ways to keep the skin healthy no matter what season or climate you are in!
- Wear sunscreen every day. Even if it is cloudy or cool outside, exposure can increase risks.
- Stay hydrated. Drinking plenty of water each day is not only good for the skin, but the body, and can fend off dry skin that might be problematic in the fall and winter months.
- Be mindful of the signs of skin cancer. Skin cancer is one of very few cancers that is visible. With early detection, many patients have a positive prognosis with proper intervention.
- Use skincare products appropriate for your skin. The dermatologists of The Menkes Clinic encourage patients to find products and skincare regimens that are appropriate for their skin’s current health. Patients with oily or dry skin will likely not be in need of the same product.
- Consider customized care. During the changing seasons, reach out to our providers to learn about new and revolutionary products that can be used to help during these environmental transitions.
