Skin care tips that dermatologists recommend

By taking good care of your skin, you can treat and prevent uncomfortable changes to your skin. Diabetes often causes extremely dry skin, which can itch. Cracks in your skin can develop, grow deep, and bleed. These deep cracks increase your risk of developing a serious infection.

You may also notice that your skin is easily irritated or heals slowly.

To treat and prevent these skin changes, dermatologists recommend the following:

Moisturize every day. Keeping your skin moisturized helps to make it flexible and prevent cracks that often lead to infection.

• Use a cream or an ointment rather than a lotion. Creams and ointments do a better job of healing dry skin than do lotions.
• Choose a fragrance-free cream or ointment that contains ceramides. You want to avoid products labeled “unscented” because these contain fragrance that has been masked so that you cannot smell the fragrance.
• Apply your cream or ointment after bathing, swimming, and when your skin feels dry or itchy.
• Carry your moisturizer with you so that you can apply it to your hands, which often become dry due to the need to wash your hands frequently.

The main reason for skin dryness is an impaired skin barrier function

The main reason for skin dryness is an impaired skin barrier function which results from:

• A lack of lipids that help to protect skin from moisture loss.
• A deficit of Urea and Natural Moisturizing Factors (NMF) which bind moisture into the skin.
