Even though Chennai doesn’t experience harsh winters, the cooler months bring a noticeable drop in humidity and breezy evenings that can make your skin dry, dull, and uncomfortable. This seasonal shift affects the skin’s natural moisture balance, often leaving it tight, itchy, and flaky.
According to Ayurveda, winter increases the Vata dosha, which is associated with dryness and roughness. When Vata becomes imbalanced, it leads to dehydration of the skin, premature aging, and loss of natural glow.
At Dr. Raniya Ayurveda Multi-Speciality Clinic in Chennai, we offer specialized Ayurvedic Winter Skin Care treatments that nourish your skin deeply and restore its natural radiance from within.
Why Skin Gets Dry in Chennai’s Winter — An Ayurvedic Insight
During the winter months:
The air holds less moisture, causing dehydration.
Cool winds reduce the skin’s natural oil production.
Vata imbalance leads to roughness and flakiness.
Pollution damages the skin barrier.
Reduced water intake worsens internal dryness.
Ayurveda emphasizes that true winter skin care means treating both the internal and external causes of dryness.
Common Winter Skin Concerns We Treat
At our clinic, we help patients manage:
Dry facial skin and white patches
Fine lines and early signs of aging
Dull, uneven complexion
Itchy arms and legs
Chapped lips
Cracked heels
Unlike temporary moisturizers, our Ayurvedic therapies focus on root-cause healing for long-term nourishment and glow.
Ayurvedic Relief for Winter Dryness
Abhyanga – Warm Herbal Oil Therapy
This full-body massage uses premium medicated oils such as Kumkumadi Taila and Nalpamaradi Oil to deeply nourish the skin, improve complexion, and restore softness.
Healing Seasonal Facials
Our winter facials combine herbal steam, antioxidant-rich packs, and skin-brightening oils that rejuvenate dull skin while balancing Vata. These facials are specially formulated for Chennai’s mild but moisture-lacking winters.
Nasya Therapy
Application of medicated nasal drops helps prevent facial dryness and enhances the skin’s natural glow.
Ayurvedic Exfoliation
Gentle exfoliation using Ubtan made of turmeric, chandan, and green gram removes dead skin cells and promotes a fresh, radiant look.
Hydration from Within
We also guide patients on Ayurvedic diet and lifestyle changes to balance Vata, such as drinking warm water, consuming ghee, nuts, and milk-based foods, and avoiding cold or processed foods. Herbal teas are also recommended for internal hydration.
Ayurvedic Diet for Winter Radiance
To maintain soft, glowing skin in winter, Ayurveda recommends eating warm, nourishing foods like soups, boiled vegetables, ghee, sesame oil, and hydrating fruits. Avoid cold water, fizzy drinks, spicy-fried foods, and excessive exposure to air-conditioning, as these can worsen dryness.
Winter Skin Care Tips — The Ayurvedic Way
Apply warm oil daily before bathing.
Moisturize regularly with herbal or natural creams.
Use sunscreen even during cool weather.
Avoid long, hot showers that strip the skin’s natural oils.
Get 7–8 hours of quality sleep for overnight skin repair.
Consistent seasonal care keeps the skin nourished, supple, and glowing all year round.
