Damaged facial skin barrier can be repaired through treatments such as topical application of traditional Chinese medicine, moisturizing cream, vitamin E oil, and glycerin.
1. External application of traditional Chinese medicine
Traditional Chinese medicine external application involves preparing ointments or masks from herbs with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, which are then applied directly to the affected area. For example, masks made with herbs like angelica dahurica and angelica sinensis can promote local blood circulation and accelerate cell renewal. This is suitable for mild to moderate skin barrier damage, such as dryness and sensitivity. It also offers some relief for skin discomfort caused by seasonal changes.
2. Moisturizing cream
Moisturizing creams contain high-molecular-weight moisturizers and oils that lock in moisture, forming a protective film to prevent water loss. For example, moisturizing creams containing hyaluronic acid and glycerin provide long-lasting hydration. They are suitable for daily skincare, especially in autumn and winter or in dry climates, helping to maintain skin's hydration and reduce skin problems caused by dehydration.
3. Vitamin E oil
Vitamin E oil is a natural antioxidant that helps repair a damaged skin barrier and promotes skin healing. It can be applied directly to damaged areas several times a day. It is suitable for cases with severely damaged skin barriers, such as after prolonged sun exposure or frequent use of irritating cosmetics, as it helps reduce inflammation and promote healthy skin recovery.
4. Glycerin
Glycerin is a natural moisturizer that absorbs moisture from the air, replenishing the skin's hydration. It can be used as part of a basic skincare routine or mixed with other moisturizing products. Suitable for all skin types, especially dry and sensitive skin, it effectively improves dryness, roughness, and enhances the skin's ability to retain moisture.
During treatment, avoid using products that may cause allergies or further damage to the skin. At the same time, pay attention to maintaining good lifestyle habits, such as a balanced diet, sufficient sleep, and moderate exercise, to promote skin health.
