There are numerous potential causes of peeling skin on the nose, and identifying the underlying cause is essential to enable targeted treatment. For instance, seborrheic dermatitis is a common cause of nasal skin peeling; in such cases, treatment may include oral B-complex vitamins or topical anti-inflammatory medications such as tacrolimus ointment. Additionally, in daily life, gently cleanse the nasal skin with lukewarm water, and avoid consuming spicy or irritating foods.
