Abdullah – What causes the dry patches on my face?
There are a number of reasons why your skin can develop dry patches, from make-up left on overnight to using the incorrect skincare products for your skin to allergic reactions. If the patches are chronic or itchy, you may have a type of topical dermatitis that requires treatment by a physician. Some dry patches may indicate the onset of Actinic, Seborrheic Keratoses or Dermatitis. If these occur and you are older than 40, consult your dermatologist or a plastic surgeon immediately for further evaluation of the problem.
