What Causes Skin to Feel Rough and How Can You Improve Its Texture

Rough skin can develop when dead skin cells build up, the skin becomes dehydrated, or the skin barrier gets affected by harsh products and environmental factors. Excess oil, clogged pores, acne and certain skin conditions can also make the skin feel uneven or bumpy. A gentle skincare routine, regular moisturising and daily sun protection can support smoother-looking skin. If roughness continues despite proper care, a dermatologist can assess the underlying cause and recommend suitable treatment.
