A dermatologist can: give you a specialist answer. In general, hot water is not a problem. Lubricate your skin from w/in w/fish oil, vitamin E, or coconut oil. Externally w/vitamin E oi or other non-alcohol containing lotionl. It won't stop the wrinkles but can add comfort. Please see dermatologist. Peace and good health.
