Can thin stratum corneum be repaired?

Doctor's answer (1)
Dr. Wang Xiaoyan
The stratum corneum can be repaired. 1. Avoid using excessive exfoliating products or methods to minimize further damage to the stratum corneum. 2. Choose gentle skincare products with good moisturizing effects, such as those containing hyaluronic acid, glycerin, and other ingredients, which help maintain skin hydration and promote repair of the stratum corneum. In addition, sun protection is crucial to prevent ultraviolet radiation from damaging the skin. Regarding diet, consuming more foods rich in antioxidants such as vitamins C and E also supports skin health. If the stratum corneum is severely damaged, consider seeking help from a professional dermatologist and adopting appropriate treatments, such as using creams designed to restore the stratum corneum.
