Here are 5 reasons you have hard textured skin

On one or two occasions I have touched some person’s skin and it was either hard or scaly. There are several reasons for hard textured skin, they include:

Build-up of dead skin cells: A accumulation of dead skin cells can make the skin feel rough and look dull.

Sun damage: Damage from the sun can hinder the skin’s ability to support a smooth texture.

Aging: As people age, the skin loses moisture and smoothness, leading to uneven texture.

Dryness: Dry skin can result in excess dead skin cells and skin that feels coarse to the touch.

Skin conditions: Conditions like eczema, acne, and rosacea can cause rough patches, wrinkling, and scarring, leading to uneven skin texture.

To improve skin texture, it is essential to maintain a proper skincare routine, stay hydrated, and protect the skin from sun damage. Consulting with a dermatologist can help you understand your skin type and choose the right products and treatments for your specific needs.
