Favorite Winter Products from Dr. R

It's cold outside and if you tend to get dry and itchy facial skin, you may need extra moisturizers this time of year.  My personal favorite for the face is SkinMedica's TNS Ceramide Treatment Cream.  Many patients prefer the Dermal Repair Cream.  Both products have added benefits, besides being just moisturizers. 

For example, TNS Ceramide Treatment Cream has TNS, a growth factor that promotes new collagen formation.  Dermal Repair Cream has added Vitamin C and E for antioxidant protection.  Both are excellent nighttime moisturizers applied alone or over any other anti-aging products (like TNS Essential Serum or Retinol Complex).

Be sure to remember a daily sunscreen with SPF in the morning for glowing winter skin.
