Skin Care for men and women

If there is one thing I can say with a clear conscience is that we all can benefit from skin care.  Living here in Tucson with our endless clear sunny days and very dry climate can be tough on our skin.  You can hydrate all you want, with drinking water; a dry sunny climate is still going to steal some of the vitality from your skin.  This is as important for men as it is for women.  Granted men need a tailored approach that will work for them, but we all need to look after our skin.  In fact we have recently introduced the Turo Skin ™ care line specifically for our male patients.  With specific cleansers, skin care rejuvenators, exfoliants and shave conditioners.  This group of products is tailored for men and doesn’t overwhelm them with too many steps or products.  One advantage of male skin is it’s hearty and usually not unduly sensitive so men respond well over time with consistent use.  I’ve been consistent with my own skin care and close up photos show my skin to be much improved over 10 years ago.  I’ve seen the same effects in many male patients who are committed to mixing healthy skin with their active life styles.

Women routinely have been more accepting of skin care.  Women are more accustomed to cleaning their skin and applying products since it’s not more involved than applying makeup.  It’s just part of the process of feeling good about yourself for my female patients.  Men occasionally need a bit more of a nudge but the benefits can be huge when we look after our most important organ our skin.
