Methods for repairing damaged stratum corneum of facial skin mainly include the following points: 1. Avoid triggers: Discontinue using cosmetics or skincare products that may damage the stratum corneum to prevent further injury. 2. Gentle cleansing and moisturizing: Cleanse the face with a mild facial cleanser or cleansing milk, and use medical-grade moisturizers or Class II medical device face masks to maintain skin hydration. 3. Topical medications: For localized symptoms such as flaking, redness, or itching, apply non-hormonal creams such as tacrolimus ointment or pimecrolimus cream to relieve discomfort. 4. Dietary adjustments: Increase intake of fruits and vegetables rich in vitamins to help nourish the skin and promote recovery. 5. Sun protection: Take proper sun protection measures when going outdoors to prevent further UV damage to the skin.
