Dry skin can result from environmental factors such as low humidity, cold weather, and hot showers, as well as aging, frequent handwashing, harsh soaps, and underlying conditions like hypothyroidism or eczema. Identifying the cause helps guide the most effective treatment.

Prescription treatment is often needed when dry skin is persistent, severely cracked, inflamed, or associated with an underlying condition like eczema or psoriasis that does not respond to standard moisturizers or over-the-counter remedies.

Dry skin is primarily a hydration issue, while eczema (atopic dermatitis) involves an immune-mediated inflammatory response in the skin barrier. Eczema typically causes more intense itching, redness, and recurring flares, and often requires prescription treatment.

Topical corticosteroids like hydrocortisone valerate reduce inflammation, redness, and itching in irritated or inflamed dry skin. They are typically used for short periods on affected areas to bring flares under control.

High-concentration urea creams are generally recommended for thickened or calloused areas such as the hands, feet, and elbows rather than the face. Lower-concentration formulations may be used on the face under physician guidance.

Practical steps include using a gentle, fragrance-free cleanser, applying moisturizer immediately after bathing, using a humidifier in dry environments, drinking adequate water, wearing breathable fabrics, and avoiding very hot showers.
