These problems include dull looking skin, flakiness in winters, ingrown hair, skin chafing, tension and inflammation in certain areas, and the like.

Dr Geetika Mittal Gupta, an aesthetic doctor and skin expert highlighted some of these body care issues in her latest Instagram post and listed a few tips that one should follow to make sure they have a healthy looking body skin. Read on to find out.
