Hydration Reset: Prepping Your Skin for Calgary’s Dry Fall & Winter

If you live in Calgary, you know the weather isn’t kind to your skin. Fall brings chilly winds, and as soon as the heat kicks on indoors, the air gets even drier. The result? Tightness, flaking, dullness, and an overall lack of that healthy glow.

Your skin’s barrier is constantly battling against:

• Cold outdoor air that strips away natural oils.

• Indoor heating that saps moisture from the skin.

• Less humidity overall, leaving skin dehydrated and more sensitive.

This combination makes September the perfect time to focus on hydration and reset your skin for the long winter ahead.

Why Hydration Matters More Than You Think

When skin is dehydrated, it doesn’t just feel uncomfortable, it actually accelerates signs of aging. Fine lines look deeper, dullness sets in, and your skin becomes more prone to irritation and redness. Keeping your skin hydrated isn’t just about comfort; it’s about long-term skin health and maintaining a youthful, radiant complexion.

In-Clinic Hydration Treatments That Work

At Market Mall Dermatology, we recommend treatments that go deeper than surface hydration, helping to restore balance from the inside out.

Beauty Boosters

A favorite treatment that delivers hyaluronic acid, antioxidants, and vitamins directly into the skin to restore hydration, plumpness, and glow. Perfect for prepping skin for Calgary’s long, dry season.

JetPeel® HydroFacial

Combines exfoliation with a deep infusion of hydration. Think of it as both a reset and a replenishment, sweeping away dead skin cells so moisture-rich serums can penetrate more effectively.

Microneedling with Exosomes (for deeper repair)

Not just hydration but also healing, this treatment strengthens skin at the cellular level, helping your skin retain moisture better over time.

At-Home Hydration Tips

Daily habits make all the difference when it comes to maintaining results between treatments. Here’s how to keep your skin happy at home:

• Switch to a richer moisturizer in the fall and winter to help lock in hydration.

• Add hyaluronic acid serums for an extra moisture boost (apply on damp skin).

• Don’t ditch the SPF — even in cooler months, UV rays contribute to dryness and aging.

• Use a humidifier at home to combat dry indoor air.

• Drink more water — your skin reflects your overall hydration levels.
