1, exfoliating method of injured skin
If there is cutin on the skin, the skin will be slightly rough and dull, and the skin can't breathe and absorb the nutrients in various skin care products. Keratinization is very important for smooth and moist skin. But don't think exfoliation is as simple as washing your face. Improper operation will do great harm to your skin. Keratin is a beauty killer lurking on the skin.
Reuse exfoliating emulsion and other products.
Many brands of lotions also contain exfoliating function. Using this toner every day can keep the skin soft and clear, and then exfoliating it specially will only make the skin peel off excessively. To see if the lotion has exfoliating function in advance, you can try to gently wipe your skin with a cotton pad dipped in the lotion after cleansing. There is yellow or black dirt on the cotton pad after wiping, indicating that this emulsion has exfoliating function and does not need other exfoliating products.
Use makeup remover and cleanser with strong degreasing power.
Do you like to use deep makeup remover and deep cleaning products, and rub your face hard, otherwise you will feel unclean? Then your cutin has been worn thin without your knowledge. You should choose a weakly acidic facial cleanser. If it is alkaline facial cleanser, reduce the amount of facial cleanser every time you wash your face.
I don't know the pH value of the product when I buy it.
Don't think that fruit acid will definitely exfoliate excessively. In fact, not all products called acids belong to acids. Products with pH less than 4.0 belong to acidic category. The pH value of fruit acid products is not necessarily lower than 4.0, so not all fruit acids will cause excessive exfoliation. Ask about the pH value of the product before buying, and check the pH value before using it at home.
Exfoliate when the skin has acne.
Excessive keratinization of acne skin is limited to excessive keratinization of sebaceous duct cells in hair follicles, and keratin metabolism in other parts of the skin is still normal, so it is not necessary to exfoliate more frequently. If you forcibly exfoliate, it is easy to cause acne rupture and infection. So when you have acne, you don't need to strengthen exfoliation. Just apply a special acne product to acne, so that LHA and salicylic acid in the product can dissolve keratin, dredge the accumulated keratin in pores, and resist bacteria and inflammation.
Choose matte products, the stronger the graininess, the better.
The particles in the scrub are coarse and have great friction with the skin. After use, the skin will be dry, red and painful. To choose fine and round matte products, natural stone particles and miscellaneous grains are good choices. Never use body scrub on your face. Too much graininess will make your face skin too irritating.
A matte product suitable for the whole face.
Abrasive exfoliating products themselves contain abrasive particles with relatively large friction coefficient. If you use too much force, you will leave tiny scratches on the skin, and the cuticle of eyes and sensitive red blood skin is thin, so it is easy to cause damage to the skin by using abrasive exfoliating products.
Step 2 know your skin type
Existing problems If you want to solve skin problems, you must first clear your mind, and you will naturally not be flustered after you have a clear mind. Knowing the current situation of skin, you should establish correct skin care demands and then choose targeted products. If the skin problem is complicated, you can consult more professionals, because many people will make mistakes in judging their skin problems, which will lead to the use of products that are not suitable for them and aggravate the skin problems. Therefore, before using any skin care products or treatments, this is the most important thing! Important! You must first accurately judge your skin quality and existing problems.
At present, the most authoritative skin classification in the world should be 16 skin classification, oily vs. dry, sensitive) vs. tolerant, pigmented) vs. non-pigmented, wrinkled) vs. This classification method is suitable for men, women and all races.
Only by clearly understanding your skin type and existing skin problems can you improve your skin condition more effectively.
Oiliness, sensitivity, pigmentation and compactness. In the following, I will call it OSPT for short.
Dry, sensitive, pigmented and wrinkled. I will call it DSPW for short later.
These two kinds are the most encountered in my consultation, and they are also more complicated to treat. Originally, I wanted to write the two types together, but because there was too much information, I separated the two types. Today, I will focus on OSPT types. I used to have this type of skin myself, so believe me, I have experienced what you have experienced. Although this type of skin is very painful, you can have healthy skin as long as you clear your mind, adhere to scientific skin care and give your skin time and patience.
What's wrong with oily, sensitive, pigmented and firm OSPT skin? This skin type is characterized by:
1, easy to grow acne, and easy to grow acne with pus spots.
2, the skin is prone to redness, and some may have red blood.
3, it is easy to leave acne marks, and acne marks are difficult to fade, and the pattern of acne, acne marks and acne is repeated for a long time.
4. After using sunscreen, the face is easy to be oily, and it is difficult to choose a sunscreen or makeup product that suits you.
5. The area of acne and redness will become larger and larger.
6. The problem of dark circles is obvious
This is indeed a skin type that is easily frustrating. It seems that the skin has entered a vicious circle. There are pimples here or black spots there on the face. The new acne marks and the old acne marks have become one piece, and they are often at a loss. It is useless to change many skin care products, and I have tried medical beauty, but the effect is not ideal. People with this kind of skin are very prone to depression or social phobia, so if you have this kind of skin, you should actively adjust your mental state while conditioning your skin care.
Anyone who has experienced a bad face can cultivate a strong heart. Come on, babies!
The key to the treatment of this kind of skin is to solve one problem at a time, and the order is inflammation-sensitivity-pore blockage-pigment problem (acne marks or spots), just like a messy pile of wool. As long as you can sort out a clue, the following problems can be solved step by step.
Improvement of inflammatory problem If the inflammatory problem is moderate or severe, my suggestion is to combine oral antibiotics. At present, doxycycline has the best therapeutic effect on this kind of acne. For example, Huashan Hospital and the general manager of Air like to prescribe minocycline hydrochloride (a kind of doxycycline, a prescription drug, which needs to be used under the guidance of a doctor) for such people.
In addition, isotretinoin (Thales) is also a medicine that doctors often prescribe for this kind of skin, which has a good therapeutic effect on improving oil secretion and inhibiting the growth of acne bacteria, but pregnant or pregnant people must not eat this, which will lead to fetal malformation. In addition, this medicine has a heavy burden on the liver, so you must remember to check your liver function when you eat it.
