About Dull Dry Skin

A complexion that lacks lustre and is dull & dry, can often give your skin a look that appears lifeless. Dry skin affects many people and is primarily the direct result of a lack of moisture which can be triggered by skin ageing or a medical condition such as eczema or psoriasis.

When ageing is the likely cause, the hydrating processes that occur naturally within the skin start to slow down. Less hyaluronic acid & sebum is produced; two products that keep the skin well-oiled and moist. This results in the skin drying out, as well as becoming less efficient in ridding the skin’s surface of dead skin cells.

When the skin is dry and less exfoliated it can also lead to dull skin – two conditions that are often found to accompany one another. It is important for the skin to function as intended and remove dead skin cells, generating new ones in order for the complexion to stay in good condition and retain its youthful glow.

Dull & Dry Skin – Frequently Asked Questions

Dull skin refers to skin that lacks radiance and vibrancy, often appearing flat, tired, or lifeless. It may seem uneven in tone or texture and can have a rough, dry, or flaky surface. When the skin is dull, it lacks the healthy glow that is typically associated with youthful, well-moisturised skin.

At Light Touch Clinic, we offer a range of aesthetic treatments that can help you manage dull and dry skin:

  • Hydrafacial: A medical-grade treatment that delivers deep cleansing and exfoliation for a revitalising experience like no other.
  • Tixel Skin Treatment: Tixel works by creating a controlled thermal injury, promoting overall skin rejuvenation to help you achieve a refreshed and revitalised appearance.
  • PRP Treatment: This treatment works by releasing growth factors from platelets, which activate fibroblasts in the skin. These fibroblasts are responsible for producing collagen, leading to improved skin structure, elasticity, and overall rejuvenation.
  • Polynucleotides Skin Boosters: Polynucleotides, derived from ultra-purified DNA fractions, stimulate fibroblast production, boosting collagen by up to 47% and improving dermis health and thickness by 52% within 23 days.
  • Advanced Facials: Our signature facials and peels provide a rejuvenating boost, increasing blood flow and improving overall skin health.
  • INTRAcel: This treatment offers an effective way to counteract the signs of ageing and skin damage while boosting vital proteins and minerals in the skin to promote overall skin health.
  • Advanced Skincare: By taking the time to have your skin expertly examined, you can feel confident that your dull and dry skin concerns are being addressed.

Dull and dry skin can be caused by internal and external factors. Environmental stressors such as pollution, harsh weather conditions, and sun exposure can strip the skin of its natural moisture and protective barrier, leading to dryness and dullness.

Dehydration, poor diet, and lack of sleep can also contribute to dull skin, as can ageing, which naturally slows down cell regeneration.

Improper skincare routines, like skipping exfoliation or using products that are too harsh for your skin type, can make the appearance of dull, dry skin worse.

Start with a hydrating cleanser that cleanses without stripping away essential oils. Follow with a hydrating toner or essence to prep the skin for moisture. Use a serum rich in ingredients like hyaluronic acid, glycerin, or ceramides to deeply hydrate and repair the skin’s moisture barrier.

Follow this up with a rich, nourishing moisturiser to lock in hydration. Finally, during the day, apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen to protect the skin from UV damage, which can increase dryness and dullness. Regular exfoliation with a mild exfoliant is also important to remove dead skin cells and encourage cell turnover, but it shouldn’t be overdone.

At Light Touch Clinic, we offer a Skin Health review, where we recommend the product(s) that will best help to improve the look and feel of the skin. Contact us to book a consultation.

Regular exfoliation can help remove dead skin cells and promote a brighter complexion. Gentle, natural substances like oatmeal or sugar scrubs work well for this.

Hydrating your skin from within by drinking plenty of water and eating a balanced diet rich in antioxidants, such as fruits and vegetables, can improve your skin’s overall health and radiance.

Natural remedies like applying honey, aloe vera, or lemon juice can also help brighten the skin due to their hydrating, soothing, and mildly exfoliating properties.

Getting enough sleep, managing stress, and incorporating physical activity are very important and can boost circulation and give your skin a more vibrant glow.
