Dealing with dull Skin: Get rid of it permanently

We all go through a phase where we are not just happy with the texture of our skin. Now that could be because of too much acne or too much dullness around the skin.

One of the common skin concerns is often associated with the type of skin. Dull skin is one such problem that today we shall be talking more about which in many cases is not even discussed. There are breakouts for example which happen to people who have oily skin. There are wrinkles that are prominent with aging, especially for mature or dry skin. Then comes the skin issue that is dullness and that needs treatment too.

Know more about dull skin:

It is basically an issue that occurs due to a lack of radiance or there is an uneven or tired skin tone. This problem can also be the inability of the skin for reflecting the light in the right manner. At times, dull skin can be dry, patchy, and even flaky. Also, the dullness is accompanied by an uneven texture of the skin which is not able to showcase the light in a uniform manner.

What are the common causes of dull skin?

Dull skin doesn’t just happen because of one specific reason. Rather there can be many issues associated with it. Talking of which listed are some you cannot ignore.

  • Dehydration:

    If you don’t tend to drink a lot of water then this problem can certainly occur. If your skin looks dull often then it is better to focus on keeping yourself hydrated by drinking at least 3 litres of water every day.

  • Sun Damage:

    If you never apply SPF to protect your skin against the harmful UV rays emitted by the sun then dull skin can occur. As the skin tissues get damaged because of such UV rays, to get repairs, you need additional treatment.

  • Aging:

    This is something you may not have control but certainly, if you get the right treatment the problem can be cured in the right manner. Oftentimes with aging, elasticity maintenance, collagen production, and firmness become challenging. The natural cell starts lessening down while the skin starts creating less oil which then works as the skin barrier causing more dullness.

Different treatment options available:

  • Glass skin:

    With a hyaluronic substance called Restylane Skinboosters, we can ensure the hydration of the skin is well maintained while the damaged dull-looking skin is treated using the overall microinjection technique.

  • Profhilo:

  • Photofacial:

    In this treatment plan, a broad spectrum of light is emitted in short bursts using a device that works faster. It does not matter what type of skin you have, you are likely to face lacklustre-looking yet dull skin. This could be because it is not one distinct dullness cause. There are many factors right from the skincare routine to aging and even the lifestyle which can further contribute to the lack of radiance.
