Finding the cause of dry skin
Dry skin is usually caused by a compromised skin barrier, which prevents the skin from retaining enough moisture. Common triggers include external factors such as cold temperatures, dry air, or frequent washing with unsuitable skincare products. Internal factors such as hormonal changes, aging, or certain skin conditions like atopic dermatitis can also dry out the skin. This loss of moisture makes the skin more sensitive and prone to irritation.
At our private dermatology practice in Hamburg, we analyze the individual causes of dry skin and develop targeted treatment plans. The goal is to strengthen the skin barrier, lock in moisture long-term, and restore the skin’s balance. Patients from all over Hamburg, Blankenese, Othmarschen, Osdorf, Groß Flottbek, and the Elbe suburbs benefit from convenient access and personalized dermatological care.
