Winterizing Your Skin

Once autumn arrives, Michael Panella can be found spending a lot of time outdoors. He loves taking on home projects that allow him to work in his back yard. But, the dropping temperature causes Michael’s rosacea, a flushing and redness of the skin, to flare up. “My cheeks, the bridge of my nose, it’s exacerbated tremendously by the cold,” says Michael.

Skin conditions like rosacea, acne and dry skin generally worsen in the winter months. “The cold weather takes its toll on the skin; the second- forced hot air and the low humidity that causes indoor creates a big problem for the skin; and the third – are winds, winds are very, very traumatic for the skin,” explains Dr. Mitchell Chasin, Director of the Reflection Center for Skin and Body.

Dermatologist, Dr. Mitchell Chasin says winterizing your skin in preparation for the cooler months ahead can make all the difference. “In the summer or in the fall time before their skin has become dry, before it’s become red and flaky; it’s much easier to prevent the skin from getting dry than to treat it once it has,” reports Dr. Chasin.
