At Signature Skin, Dr. Shantanu Choudhary and Dr. Swati Mogra help patients manage persistent dry skin with treatment plans suited to their skin type and lifestyle. Because chronic dryness can have several contributing causes, a proper evaluation helps guide effective care.
Understanding Dry Skin
Dry skin occurs when the skin does not retain enough moisture, leading to roughness, flaking, tightness, and sometimes itching or cracking. It can result from weather, harsh skincare products, frequent hot showers, or underlying skin conditions, and severity varies widely between individuals.

Consultation is recommended when dryness is persistent despite regular moisturizing, causes cracking or discomfort, or is accompanied by redness and itching that does not improve.
