Sensitive Skin
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
Sensitive skin is a condition in which the skin reacts easily to factors that would normally be well tolerated, such as certain cosmetics, temperature changes, the sun, or some fabrics. It is not a disease in itself, but rather a tendency of the skin to become irritated more quickly.
Common symptoms:
- redness or a sensation of warmth
- burning, itching, or tightness
- discomfort after applying products or in response to the weather
Common causes: a weakened skin barrier, environmental factors, and the use of products with irritating ingredients.
Which specialist treats it? The dermatologist is the one who evaluates sensitive skin, identifies possible triggers, and provides guidance on the most suitable care. If the discomfort is constant or interferes with your daily routine, seeing this professional helps define an appropriate routine for each skin type.
