DRY SKIN
Why Your Skin Feels Rough & Tight
Why does your skin feel like sandpaper no matter how much lotion you use? If you’re dealing with dry, flaky patches that itch, crack, or feel constantly tight, you’re not alone—your skin is simply struggling to retain moisture.
Dry skin is common and usually harmless, but when it worsens, cracks can become painful and may even lead to infections. The good news? With the right care, skin comfort can be restored.
Who Is Prone to Dry Skin?
Dry skin commonly appears on the face, hands, scalp, elbows, legs, and feet—but it can occur anywhere.
Our Dry Skin Treatment Approach
Barrier Repair: We focus on restoring the skin’s natural moisture barrier to help it hold hydration effectively.
Medical-Grade Topicals: Prescription creams and ointments calm inflammation, repair cracks, and relieve itching—far beyond what drugstore lotions can do.
Systemic Treatment: For severe or chronic dryness, oral or injectable therapies may be used to treat underlying inflammation or medical causes.
Dry skin can be triggered by age, environment, genetics, or occupation. That’s why every treatment plan is personalized based on your skin type and lifestyle.
If you’ve tried everything and your skin still feels uncomfortable, it’s time to see a dermatologist. At Atmos Derm, we go deeper than moisturizers to give you lasting relief.
