Best Skin Care Products for Dark Dry Skin

Skin care products for dark dry skin types

1 Answer

Answered on 21st Aug '24

When dry, dark skin fe­els tight or rough, itchiness happens some­times. This dryness arises due­ to cold air, harsh soaps, and lack of water. Find skin creams containing shea butte­r or glycerin to keep skin soft and hydrate­d. Hyaluronic acid also helps. Use sunscree­n always and drink lots of water. Hot showers damage by stripping natural oils away from the skin. So the­y're best avoided.

I have scars on my nose due to specs and on cheeks for acne so, what would be the treatment and how much will it cost

Female | 20

The treatment for scars on the nose and cheeks due to specs and acne will depend on the type of scars you have and the severity of them. Treatments can range from laser resurfacing, chemical peels, dermabrasion, microneedling, and even fillers. The cost of these treatments can vary widely depending on the type of treatment chosen and the area being treated. It is best to consult with a dermatologist to get an accurate cost estimate for the treatment you are considering.

Hello. Roughly one month ago I purchased a home wart removal kit to remove what appeared to be a benign wart on the back of my knee. The nozzle on this device broke during use, spraying an area roughly two inches in diameter on my skin with dimethyl ether. This caused a small superficial frostbite/burn, but didn't take care of the wart so I used another kit afterwards which used a swab rather than a nozzle. After using both of these, the area blistered. This blister quickly popped and fell off on its own after just a day, leaving an area of incredibly raw and bloody skin. I applied neosporin to this area regularly and kept it clean allowing it to heal. It's been a month now and while this area isn't entirely healed, it has protective skin on it now. My issue here is the area has a blotchy dark coloration now, looking almost like bruising. This seems odd to me given that it's been a month now, should I be worried about this coloration? There is no pain at the site, though the skin there is quite thin and rough.

Male | 32

Its natural to experience discoloration in skin especially after a blister or wound has occurred. color changes during the healing process. It could be due to hyperpigmentation which is the increased production of melanin in that area. This can result in a bruise-like appearance.

I am 22 years old and I am facing with eczema on my finger it's kind of a dry itchy and small swellings on that finger and that spreading on other fingers of my hand too I have tried many creams but it helps temporarily and again the condition continues.. what should I do?

Female | 22

When ignored, eczema can cause dry, itchy skin with small bumps that may spread to other fingers. This condition is usually not contagious but uncomfortable. Eczema may be brought about by allergens or irritants present in the environment or stressors at home or the workplace. To manage this kind of problem, always keep the skin moisturized all the time; avoid anything that triggered the outbreak such as harsh detergent soaps among others–instead use mild ones which are readily available over-the-counter (OTC) drugs like hydrocortisone creams can also work effectively if prescribed by doctors specializing in treating diseases related with epidermis.

I have ringworm for almost 4 months .some of the ringworm in my inner thighs and now in pubic area too.Some of them under my breast too.applied clotrimazole, terbinafine ointments. But didn't worked.What should I do

Female | 18

It looks like you have bad case of ringworm which did not respond to the OTC medicines. I suggest that as soon as possible you see a dermatologist who specializes in fungal infections. They may give you oral antifungal medicine and topical treatment to improve the result. Seek urgent medical care since untreated ringworm can cause problems.

For hair loss. Already seen the doctor in the past for skin allergies and black heads etc

Female | 29

There are many causes for hair loss to occur. The usual reasons are stress, a poor diet, and hormonal imbalances. Signs of hair loss are noticing more hair falls than usual or a thinning of the strands. To alleviate hair loss, it is essential to control stress, eat a healthy diet rich in nutrients, and use gentle hair care products.

I have keloid scars on my upper chest and one on the side of my stomach. Both are raised and very pigmented. I am looking for topical (non-invasive) treatment options that would reduce the appearance of the scars. I would like to understand which combination of gels and creams would work best for my goals? E.g applying silicone cream gels and layering silicone gel sheets, then using bio oil etc.

Female | 18

Keloid scars are marks that are raised and dark because of the excessive collagen. These scars can be highly annoying for people. Utilization of silicone gel or sheets will assist in the flattening and bleaching of the scars. Besides, the application of bio-oil can be even more effective in enhancing the look. Hence, the most important thing is the time and patience to stick to the treatment to be able to see the effects of it.

Hair loss consultation cost vary, so contact the clinic for specific pricing. The process usually involves discussing medical history, evaluating symptoms, examining the scalp, and possibly ordering diagnostic tests. Treatment options are based on the tests. Consult a qualified dermatologist or trichologist for accurate guidance.

I have this white patches like something in my inner thighs. Like near my private part. It's not very smooth but kind of smooth and itchy. It seems like it's spreading

Female | 19

The symptoms are smooth, white patches, as well as itchy. It is caused by a yeast growing on the skin. For that reason, you can get medicine that is not prescribed that eradicates fungi on the skin. Keep the place clean and dry. Try not to share personal items with other people. Make sure the area is kept clean so as not to cause an infection to others.

I'm 22 year old Girl. I suffering skin issues

Female | 22

The signs you are experiencing e.g. Redness, itching, and rashes may be due to various reasons. This could be because of your allergies, stress, weather changes, or some products that could be irritants to your skin. To solve this, you can use gentle skincare products, stop the triggers you might think are causing the issue, and regularly wash and hydrate your skin.

Spot on back was painful felt like glass inside when partner squeezed it the first time only yellow fluid came out so treated it with germoline 2 weeks on got worse this time when he looked saw black thing inside thought it was a tick when he popped it a hard black white and red thing came out hard as a brick still feel like more is inside my back any ideas as to what it is

Female | 37

You might have had a cyst on your back. It is a sac filled with fluid or pus formed under the skin. If infected, it can be red, white, or black, and the skin can be painful. By the way, the liquid is freed when pressed and the cyst is emptied. The doctor should examine it to be sure it is cared for and removed.
