What should I check besides moisturizing for the backs of my hands that become rough from frequent washing?
Planned branch to visit: Maypure Hongdae Station Branch
When the backs of my hands and finger joints become dry due to frequent hand washing, what else should I check besides applying moisturizer? I pay attention to the products I use and my cleansing method for my face, but since my hands come into contact with water so often, it is difficult to establish a standard for their care. I am writing to ask if I can receive a consultation regarding hand skin care for late autumn.
Should I differentiate between a condition where it simply feels rough and one accompanied by itching or stinging? I would like to know if it would be helpful to specify whether the discomfort is limited to the back of my hand or if there are changes in my palm or between my fingers. I think it would be better to clarify which specific areas are uncomfortable and when, rather than simply describing my entire hand as dry.
It is easy to choose a hand cream based solely on scent or texture, but I am curious about what criteria I should use for consultation when my skin is uncomfortable. If I bring the product I am currently using, would you examine it for me? I would also like to know whether I should pay attention to reapplying frequently or applying it immediately after washing, and whether I should adjust the frequency according to the condition of my hands rather than setting a fixed daily usage amount.
Should I also mention items I touch, such as dishwashing gloves or cleaning supplies? Even when using gloves, moisture can build up inside or they can be uncomfortable if worn for a long time, so I would like to confirm the usage time and method as well. I am also wondering if keeping a record of whether there is a difference between days when I frequently handle water and days when I do not would help in identifying causes within my daily life.
Even if fine lines on the back of my hands are noticeable, should I first check if my skin is dry or uncomfortable? I'm not sure how to distinguish between cosmetic treatments and medical consultations when scheduling appointments. Before rubbing off visible dead skin cells or trying out various new products, I want to know the appropriate range of care for my current condition. I also feel that if I switch things up all at once, it will be difficult to figure out which method is right.
I would like to first inquire if a consultation regarding hand skin is available at the Hongdae Station branch. If possible, should I summarize the cleansers and moisturizers I use, as well as when I wear gloves? I would like to be advised whether my condition can be managed with daily care or if a medical examination is necessary. Hands are visible just as often as the face, yet I only had a vague understanding of how to care for them. I would like to learn methods that allow for consistent care while minimizing discomfort.
